Thank you all for the recommendations! Trevor

I was just handed down an 02 Legacy Wagon GT with 79k miles on it. The problem is that it came from my Dad's uncle who has Alzheimers and we don't have any of the service records. I called the dealer where he purchased it and it has only been in once for an oil change. At least to their service department. I don't think he totally neglected the car, it's in great cosmetic shape, and he used it mainly around his ranch and to pick up stuff from the nursery. I have called around to a couple of dealers to get their opinion. The opinion seems to be to get it in and have the timing belt replaced and the 60k maintenance. The timing belt is supposed to be changed at 9 years or 105k. Any thoughts would be appreciated. I'm also tempted to drive the 45 miles to the dealer for this too to set a baseline as I don't know of any mechanics in Santa Barbara that are good Subaru mechanics. Thanks in advance. Trevor
