Got it from the parents as a graduation gift! (Yeah I'm just getting out of high school) and also as a practicality issue. My job over the summer is in Blacksburg, a 35 min drive so the ol' Dodge was gonna eat up all my money in gas. This thing gets nearly 30 combined. And it's AWD so that's a plus. I'm taking it to college too so yeah.

It's actually pretty quick for what is. That AWD gives lots of torque off idle, I'm still not used to it. It's a different kind the then pig (that's the 360)

Dad works at a dealership so he got a ridiculous deal both from Subaru and from his dealership employee stuff. It's gonna get fog lights, all weather mats and that plastic piece to go in the bumber right outside the trunk so you don't scratch the paint getting stuff in and out.

Also 7 year 70,000 mile bumber to bumber warranty so yeah that's real good

So yeah I'm done rambling lol but I figured you guys would better appreciate it then my ignorant high school friends

Also, the best part means the truck can stay parked for multiple days which means more MODS!!! An engine build is eminent (because I want to, don't be mistaken it still runs wonderfully at 210,000)

And I'll save who knows how much in gas so that means more money for the truck!!!

Well originally I was gonna get a WRX. But dad couldn't get anybody to trade him one. He was just looking for a base model too.

It's got a CVT, which really suprised me in a good way, a 2,5L classic boxer Subaru engine. And paddle shifters lol they're actually pretty fun

Subaru is the best out of everything in retaining their value

Legacy is made in USA also

Nah, but you might ask Travis Pastrana.
