dont get me wrong... I love the baja.... its had almost 21000 trouble free miles in just a little over 2 years. (ok other than the rear lighter not working and a taillight in the tailgate burning out.... WARRANTY!!)

 

But driving around 5 days a week around the PNW I see old school wagons rolling around everywhere. There is just a certain charm to an EA82. (even if my freightliner CAN pass them on a steep grade when I am empty)

 

No I am not going to buy one yet... the house and remodeling bills associated with it come first. But maybe after the fence and central air are in.

 

I will consider rejoining the old school side

 

Thinking maybe this time an 88 GL with a 3 inch lift?

 

I cant rallycross anymore as I rarely get sunday off. (I can by request... hell I got today off because I worked my tail off the last 2 weeks) I live in emissions land so it would be nice not to deal with a carb anymore (weber or not)

 

Feel free to shoot suggestions, encouragement, whatever...

 

For those who dont know.... the old GL with 321K... RIP

 

That thing looks damn good for that many miles. Gotta love the old subarus and their ability to run up the miles that high.

Yeah that thing looks great. I think an 88' lifted wagon would be SWEET. Nothing catches more attention than a station wagon with a foot of clearance sitting on muddies. I'm waiting for the perfect d/r EA82 wagon to lift. You should definitely go for it. There's no maybe to it, someday you'll be part of the old-gen again.

I know how you feel.. I also am looking for the right EA82 D/R to lift.. Love those wagons..always make me smile everytime I see one

You're always welcome over here Mike , it'll be good to have ya back:lol: .

 

My Subaru driving season is starting soon, I might have a shot at catching your GL's mileage this year:rolleyes: .

Get that house done and go for it!

 

I waited too many years to get an old GL.

Didn't even know what I was missing. Couldn't imagine not having one now.
