You too, eh?
Well thanks for all the advice guys. Just picked up my new outback, black on black. Picked it up in a snowstorm no less! Handled great. A special thanks goes to camgottagopee who patiently answered all my PM's and gave me invaluable advice during this buying process. ...I owe you a few beers!

Does the stereo go to 11?
Still scratching my head on that one.
Hey CAMP...if you see anything let me know!!
thanks
I've been actually toying with the idea of trading in/selling the Audi and picking up a Subie...the new styling (not the 08's) really has been catching my eye...I think they are great cars, last forever, fairly cheap to service (compared to the A4), have the ground clearance when needed, good gas mileage...all around a no brainer. Stick shifts are hard to find (esp one coming off a lease...)

Here are my answers for whatever they are worth...OK, I see a lot of Suburus around Ski Country. My ski buddy has an outback and loves it. My truck is, yet again, in the shop and I'm thinking about cutting my losses. I've put 75K of both highway and heavy city (read: Belt Parkway, everyday) on it since 2004 and am likely to do the same on my next vehicle. I'm also foreseeing 0% financing within the next month during Feb Sales. My suburu questions (In no particular order):
1) Reliable or not?
2) Service costs for maintenance.
3) How good are they in foul weather, particularly snow.
4) Symmetrical AWD vs AWD vs 4WD
5) Outback vs. Forrester
6) Good on gas?
Thanks in advance. DMC, I may recall that you drive a suburu, no?
Yep, I'm aware of that.Hammer... you know it's recommended to change the transmission fluid every 30,000 miles? Most people don't do that...
