OK Dinello, don’t start on me…  
I had my 01 PT up for sale, but couldn’t get any real nibbles on it. I drove it most of the summer, but the last few weeks it was just sitting. My wife got a promotion at work, and will be traveling to various offices (she works for a bank) as far as Sewicly, Bellvue, Oakland, Etc. COnsidering we live in Saxonburg, that’s a bit of traveling, so i decided an AWD vehicle would be a good idea. So i ended up trading the PT in on this

2000 Subaru Forester, only has 42K on it. My PT had 60K. Got a decent deal, was almost a straight swap. I coughed up $400, but considering the Suby books about $1500 higher, i can’t complain.  
Now i need to find some snow tires for it…

Thanks. The finish needed a little bit of help…it had a lot of surface scratches and was kind of dull. 2 passes with a buffer and Meguires paint cleaner followed bya couple of coats of zaino brought the shine back on it. The interior was great as is.  
I don’t think i will be using it much(i would rather drive my Jeep), but the wife will use it whenever it snows…

Subaru spelled backwards says:  
U-R-A-Bus
