yea. Dad drove it home from shelors (30 mins on the interstate) after it got the complimentary fill up. Mom signed the papers and i drove him back to work in it and then back home. Dint even use an 1/8th of tank. Its ridiculousness

it actually has this little gauge that shows your instantaneous mileage on the cluster. Ill take a pic tomorrow if i can remember.

Its actually deceptively roomy and comfy inside.

i wish my sig worked on mobile

your pretty lucky. i wish my parents would buy me a nice new vehicle to save gas. both my mom and aunt have been given 2 vehicles each from my grand parents that i know of and i had to go out and buy my own vehicles and spend many hours fixing them to keep them on the road.

Yeah I am lucky. Both my parents work hard and its rubbed off on me luckily

I think they also felt a little guilty for making me drive the truck for over two years, even though that's all i wanted when i got my license.

Congrats Ham Bone! Can't go wrong with a Scubi! I had a WRX for 6 1/2 years and loved it! I ended up selling it because my wife didn't like it. Mine was putting down about 350 hp by the time I sold it. I sure miss it though...

Hey, we're headed to Shoe Creek on Sunday. It's in Nelson Co,, about an hour 1 1/2 from Blacksburg.

Not familiar with Shoe Creeck, sounds somewhat familiar though.

Dad loves the car, so there is a potential to get a new remodeled 2014 WRX later down the road and then he will drive the legacy, we shall see what happens. I was skeptical with the Legacy at first but then i drove it and was like dannnggg that was nice.

How's the Dart? I briefly looked at those but then I drove some Subarus and got really impressed.

I sat in one but I didnt get to drive it. It felt like sitting in the Ram it was so roomy and comfy.

For all of Dodges pit falls they sure make the best seats out of the Big Three American companies


DO you have the 1.4 turbo? And its the manual i assume from the other thread lol

I thought the shifter was way too big. I like a small shifter.

I drove a BRZ earlier and man that was one fun car. It just wasnt practical to get at the time
