Just picked up my first Subaru, it's an 04 Forester XT auto.
I have had tons and tons of Honda Civics... So, I am stepping out of my comfort zone..
Kinda thought the idea of a slightly bigger AWD Turbo Wagon sounded fun.. As a plus, it has cup holders, power windows, sunroof and leather..
It's in decent shape, with 188k and a new turbo and I got it for only $3k. So, I think I did alright.
1st - Fix the Valve cover leak today.
My plans are simple:
- Lift it about 2 Inches.
- Bigger tires
- Bull Bar
- Slight performance upgrades to the motor.
- Tow Hitch
- Upgrade to a better roof rack system ( I like to carry a lot ).
I consider any of my cars SUVs and so I use them like Off-Road Utility Tools.. This one shall be No-Different.

Window Visors are on the way! & for only $33!!!
And, I've gotten to take her off-road a few times now and she is a beast...
In the pic at Aero Ranch, I had to make it through a swampy water logged mower trail and she didn't skip a beat..
Did I mention that it has CUP HOLDERS. LOL
My Forester is a Small SUV, but Mad Max was a Smaller SUV(non-classified SUV)
Also... I case anyone is in the Market for a Paddle Board, I am part of Matau Surf Co. and we make some Nice Equipment.
