  1. Oh, it's Missoula Montana Hyundai.
  2. Nope, they weren't trades. I got my own full asking price sales after-the-fact of the SFe purchase. We were doing errands and each time we showed up in a Subie, they told me they wanted to make me an offer. I'd done my research anticipating putting FS listings here and other sites and regional CL, so I already had my best-and-lowest $ in my own notes. The sedan required one higher counter offer from me, but they nailed my expectation for the wagon on the first offer. I hope whoever gets the wagon gets a few more good years out of it, if not up to turbo failure, then at least to that next major service. Maybe they'll show up here, even.
  3. Alright, everything is resolved and both Leggy GTs are sold. Sad days. We've owned 4 Subie wagons, starting with 1988. Got a Hyundai Santa Fe hybrid (not plug in, since we hardly have charging stations in MT). I'm into my third day just reading and using setup menus and learning about all the tech. Amazing what changed over 19 years! The Hyundai dealership ended up buying both Subies, one at a time, as we were going back and forth for their paperwork, our titles, etc. Their GM is my next door neighbor, he knew about the wagon and said he'd never even seen that we also owned the sedan. The wagon's "turbo issue" seems to have been overstated by the shop we used; and now we won't be using them any more, anyway. Strange week. Thanks to everyone here for the years of reference materials, and for the vacation pix.
  4. Saw your car last weekend, "Bassit"
  5. #1) BF Goodrich G-force Super Sport A/S 215/45/17 $455.96 for mount, balance, disposal of old tires, etc at Costco (had to special order, this size is never in stock here, there was a tire sale of $60 off for 4 Michelins that got applied to the special order, don't ya love it?) #2) Western Montana #3) No special events other than everyday life; often have the wagon loaded with gear #4) 50:50 city and highway with some gravel roads and lots of bad pavement (potholes and frost heaves); also, in the winter our roads aren't salted, they're "sanded" which is a secret code for "gravel over ice" #5) Replaced the OEM Potenza RE92s (at approx 43k miles on the wagon) #6) These tires were a real surprise and I really like them (had to order them sight unseen). They handle well and thankfully are quiet on dry pavement at 45 mph around town. I commute once a week 125 miles each way, an hour is on I-90 and the other hour is mountainous (two-lane state hwy over the Continental Divide). We've had lots of snow and ice lately, anywhere from -20F to 35F days and nights and I liked the RE92s all this time but I like these tires better.
