ACL replacement sucks, but another Subaru joins the family! - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

ScottyS · 2005-08-31, 01:32 PM

So I'm sitting around loaded up on painkillers with my leg on an Extension/Flexion machine and reading the "Tact" thread. Maybe it's the meds, but you guys did make me laugh.

I don't know the first thing about wideband sensors, but the rational scientific discussion in Tech wasn't over my head. Does that mean our local peer-review process is too transparent?

Anyways, Monday morning I got anethetised, drilled and cut. I'm staying at my parent's place in CC where their 802.11 is keeping me entertained. My Dad had recently given the green light for me to find Mom a nice used Subaru, so I've been watching the ads. Yesterday morning I noticed a new RGJ listing on Cars.com for a 1995 Impreza Wagon, and made the call. In spite of my immobile state, I talked everyone into taking me to look it over immediately. It turned out to be a nice little car with low miles at a great price. Result: my Mom now has a MY95 1.8L Impreza Outback that should last for a while. So, maybe some good has come of this....

I'm glad that thread was good for something.

Hope you recover quickly!
