wavekayaker Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 I picked up my friend today to go mountain biking. He looked at my new 97 Brighton wagon and said " a Subaru, now you really are a hippie". I bought a 97 Brighton wagon three weks ago. It has 120,000 on it. So far so good. I'm really liking the car. The ej22 has great tourque. It's a little thirsty, but not bad. I have been getting from 25 to 28 MPG mixed driving. I checked out the write ups on here and put in a tach and cruise. Both came from ebay... for that matter, so did the car. The cruise was the kit that shows up a lot on ebay, at the time I bought it I didn't know that and ended up spending a few bucks more than the origional buy it now price had been.... oh well, it was worth it! There are a few differences on the 97 not covered in the directions, but even so it only took a few hours. I think I might have to do a front wheel bering soon, and definitely the timing belt. So, just saying hi! Anthony Columbia, SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olnick Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Way to go, Anthony. Good choice--and smart move to put the tach in. And no, you're not a "hippie," just an intelligent person who's smart enough to buy a Subie!!! Funny, as I read your post I'm watching Columbia on TV, the Gamecock-Alabama game. I'm an old Gator so I have to see how our boy Spurrier is doing (doing pretty well so far!) Good luck with the new ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
