  1. My other 2 subarus were dogs, too, and not only on the hills (1980 ea81 wagon manual tranny 2wd and 1986 Brat ea81 manual 4WD), but I think that was mostly because they were carbed and had well over 150k on them...the manual EA82 Loyale with 90k on it I just wrecked actually had a decent amount of pep, and I think gearing had something to do with it...I'd tach about 4k at 70-75 MPH or so, but that wonderful little car still got me 31-32 MPG. Made me smile every time I was at the gas station!!!
  2. a cargo cover? I'm assuming you mean for a wagon...my Loyale was a sedan. If you mean something else, I'm sure I don't have it...I don't have any kind of cargo cover in my car. Sorry I couldn't help ya out!!!
  3. Hey what's up guys? I've never posted here before, but I've been reading the threads for a while, and now I'd like your opinion on something.... I recently bought a 92 Loyale 5spd 2WD for $50, thought I found a gem in the rough, and ended up putting a clutch and ~$500 more into the car. I got it running real good. Then, I hit a deer, a road sign, and a tree with it. Drove it home at 65 MPH, and the only thing mechanically wrong was the alignment off a little bit, and the steering wheel is pushed almost into the dash from the force of impact. Enough of the sob story, now onto the question... The body on that car is wrecked, but I liked how it drove, and once I got the kinks worked out, it was a great running car. I just found a 91 Loyale, 90k miles on it for ~500, this one is an automatic, quarter panels are starting to rot on it. My biggest issue with buying that one is...is there a big difference in power between the manual and auto transmissions? I drive 40 miles 1 way to work up and down a lot of big hills, and that's really important to me! Thanks for all your time, and keep on Soobing! Frank 1980 EA81 Wagon, died of cancer 10 years ago (rust) 1986 EA81 Brat, every option, great shape, killed by drunk driver now, 1992 Loyale 2WD, got into a fight with Bambi, and Bambi won! Also, anyone need any parts, let me know, Body on the Loyale was straight before, and had brand new fenders put on it (old ones were rotted out), along with other things...AC worked great, interior in good shape, PW PDL PM 5spd 2WD EA82
