Default I miss my subie

Subie is hibernating for winter. Wanna keep it clean. Jeep is my winter beater. My last payment for my jeep is this month. 3 years of payments and how does it repay me?!? By trying to kill me 3 times this week. Last week, wheel bearing let's go. Wheel almost falls off. Thursday... Dunno how this happened but control arm bolt let's go..yesterday morning wheel cylinder is leaking fluid and no brakes! E-brake cable is shot...TPS is gone, it's bucking like a bronco. One more thing breaks and I'm gunna push it off a cliff!!!

Another show Lady- Why does your car say Corvette on the engine? We have a Corvette and your car doesn't look like one. LMFAO

I would rip the shit out of an AWD subaru alllllll winter long. Just pressure wash the hell out of the undercarriage after lots of salt builds up. Camaro on the other hand not worth putting it thru salt when its so bad in snow anyways.

Normally I would agree with you however we're now talking about a Subaru with a paint job that has taken a trophy at a large indoor car show and an sti interior conversion that cost us big $$. Neither of which needs to be subjected to the ravages of winter lol.
I have zero desire to keep repainting the car every year and our nearly 100 mile round trip commute to work every shift on the salted and sanded roads would wreak havoc on a nice paint job.
So yeah, we're the assholes who would park an awd car for the winter
I'd rather drive the z if need be, I care far less about that one. But, if all goes well we'll have another winter vehicle in the next week or so. As soon as I figure out how deep to reach in after I bend over to find money this time of year

Next thing you know he'll have a snazzy paint job on the Jeep and it will have to sit the winter out too.
