northguy Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 I thought you were going to say you couldn't pass an open field or wooded area without making a detour to do some off-roading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MorganM Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 How about a lifted 87 wagon "Cherokee on pump four is ready..." That's what came over the inter-com at a gas station on my way to the Castana offroad event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 I'm actually surprised that I don't get more attention here, since there are only two lifted Subarus in the state right now. I guess people are just used to seeing wierd crap up in Alaska (there are some strange vehicles running around here, trust me). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbone Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 Up in our neck of the woods theres lots of lifted rigs. More and more you see Cherokees being lifted. Not just the older ones either, I've seen a few early 90's that have been lifted (like, why?) But when I roll thru town in Hatchet, it gets lots of looks, giggles, laughs and thumbs up. At the local esspresso stand I stop at, one of the gals there said "Thats the funniest looking thing I've ever seen". I said "I bet you wouldnt think it was funny if I rolled over your little Honda" I got a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roobaflu Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 I thought maybe he was late because his car was like mine SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOW I do get a lot of people looking at the wombat (lime green 85 hatch with 3 inch lift, still on 13s), but they are usually laughing or saying "that is so stupid", I like the occasional look of utter confusion when people have NO idea what it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PetterFan Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 having owned a lifted hatch i know how that is.. although people do the same thing when i drive my SVX.. Have you ever thought about lifting the SVX? I know that it is a "Sports car" but I think that it would look pretty good lifted with some huge dirt tyres. It would definately be one of a kind!

FlyB0y Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 i have been late getting to work, and late getting home the past two days. if i stop, i cant get going again untill the crowd dissipates people love this thing. i've never driven something that inspires such awe in people. its like in rolin around in a 69 corvette. i love it!_! you guys get the same thing? If there is a Pilgrimage for the Subaru "Holy Lands", Missoula Montana has to be on the list of holy sites! I believe Subaru is still the #1 seller of cars in the state, and even if Missoula it isn't the holiest Subie site, I am sure that our cult following has to be in the top ten Heck, I got $1500 for my '88 JUSTY ... sold in less than a week ... and I get nothing but smiles or just long stares everywhere I go in the lifted brat ... that's why I want to start lifting and selling some here Ya'know, I have had more than one offer to buy my brat off me ... I never let them get to the actual dollar amount tho since I don't wana be tempted :-p Now if I can just get enough people around here to lift their Subes maybe I can start a club or something And yes I have been asked Q's at stores and mostly gas stations ... it is nice :cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phizinza Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Most people look at my ute, and the young people look twice. Maybe its the sound, maybe its the look. I dunno, but I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
