So emily is in the hospital (dealership) and I've been loaned a 2015 Forester. There are a few things I like the massive sunroof, comfy ride, ground clearance! Some things that surprised me were the manual handbrake as opposed to most new cars having an electronic one, the lack of Tip-tronic was also weird seeing as the last loaner I had 2012 Outback had paddle shifters (THAT SUCKED). It doesn't handle too bad for the size but the size is huge compared to an older forester this feels like a boat although the steering feels nice and direct.

It's been awhile not much is new with Emily I got gold lug nuts, and gold quick bumper releases so the gold is running strong. I also have a gf now so there goes car part money but the sad part to this story is I am going to try hard to sell her she is barely over 30k just got all that maintenance done but I am going to be buying a truck from a friend GMC Sierra 2500HD with 110k miles sounds like a strange move but it is a diesel with a plow so I'd be making good use of it seeing as I tow often enough with my other truck and have a good set of contacts already if not I'm going to look at a 2500hd cummins with only 60k on the clock but for 30k not too pricey for a diesel let alone with those miles so if they buy my car I'm sold.


Any and all parts are now for sale off Emily really hard to say I'll start a build thread in the Tri-State section

Hit these spots already but that was back when my car was very much stock so had to give it another shot! Hopefully getting a new and very good job soon and I'm going to refinance my car for its final set of payments so I got big things coming soon!
