Im really thinking of trading my xB in on a Subaru. Want something with factory AWD that I could lift a few inches and put AT tires on. Want a DD that can handle country roads easily, thats about it. Wagon if at all possible for the extra room. I know a few of yall have done this already so tips on which models to look at and what years make the best candidates would be good! I know nothing about Subaru haha.

Buy mine, lol.

Whatcha got?

any model Subaru wagon will be a good candidate, the NA cars have just enough power for a DD and get decent gas mileage. I've been really happy with my 02 WRX, I bought back in 2004 with 18K miles, only regular maintenance I've had to do, front wheel bearings, front axles, front brakes, radiator, I did have to replace the transmission because I was stupid.

there are subframe lift kits and springs on the market for almost every model.

2003 Legacy wagon, 5speed and hasn't broken 60k yet.

Sounds nice, but its probably out of my price range with such low miles

This is kinda where i want to get eventually:

Fozzies are awesome. Once I get the OBS back on the road it's getting a fozzy suspension setup for maximum wheelgap.

Prolly around 6 to start

Pretty set on a WRX wagon, orrrr a Forester. Wagon seems to make more sense based on my non-granola lifestyle, wouldnt want to give people the wrong idea. Forester looks nice though.

So the 105k timing belt thing, pretty legit?
