New car!!

Well thanks for taking me to school! I have a Subaru Forester and had no idea they are owned by Toyota. I kinda inherited it rather than buying it. So then how many conglomerations are there in the auto industry? I would rather hear your wisdom than search the answer out myself :D

Well I don't drive like an old man. I hit 95 the other day with it but it was on a long straight road. Don't drive over 80 much but I will once in a while.

Just drop a 2jz-gte supra motor and 6 speed in it! That'll get you somewheres fast and trust me its been done.

sweet ride my friend has the older model and he loves it. and he no little boy. I prefer my pickup style trucks, with 4wd it makes days like today so profitable when you can ride around and pull people out of the ditches and such cause they don't know how to drive in the snow. I get people looking at me cause I take off real easy until I hit 3rd gear ( to save gas) and then she will pick up faster than most people do. and they always think that large space in front of me is for them to pass but it not I know a trucks takes more room to slow down and to give me room to miss the fool that slide into the next car(I got an entire median to use if needed lol..

I bought a 2011 xb about a year ago, and I am still really happy with the purchase. I was, however, a little surprised at how expensive it was to replace the brakes. Last week, at 45,000 miles, it was $600 for new pads and rotors.
