    Well, I can't say "I don't have an Outback", because, well, I do, but my car is a Subaru Legacy Wagon, not an Outback. Sorta.

    Started out with a 1995 Legacy Wagon, it got eaten by a guardrail, so I got a Sedan, which sucked. I traded it in for my current Legacy Wagon.

    You Subaru people are a little pushy aren't you. Ha! Have you ever considered a nice Mercury Cougar Wagon? Much more space and much slower too.:tiphat:

    Really though I like ALL wagons even Outbacks, Legacy's and Forresters.

    Welcome Sarra. After yesterdays snowfall, an AWD wagon would have been fun.

    Hah. I have to have AWD. Geeze, I used to get my Legacy Sedan stuck all the time. ;)

    I'd like an older wagon with a 350 or even a big block in it. But, I like having an engine where the spark plugs are almost impossible to get at... Or something.

    Did you say invasion?

    BTW - the Cougar wagon would be sweet if you grafted the Aerostar's AWD system onto it and swapped in a DOHC 4.6 liter motor and the Borg-Warner 5-speed tranny found in the Mustang.

    Probably cheaper to get a Subaru for bad weather though & keep that lovely Ford product in its woodpaneled glory for good days.

    >_< I hate not having Flash. it just doesn't exist for 64 bit Linux yet.

    I've thought about shoehorning a 350 into my current ride, but it would have to stay ODBII to stay emissions legal, and there just isn't any space in there.

    A chevy 350 in a Ford? Blasphmey!

    The awesomest AWD vehicle I've seen was an RX-7 with a WRX powertrain in it. ;)

    The 350 TT Volvette was pretty awesome, it needs the AWD treatment too. ;)
