I got myself a new daily driver. I needed another car for the bike, dog, bad weather etc but wanted something reasonably fun so I got myself a WRX wagon. Its actually pretty cool. Its quick when you get into the higher RPMs and is fun to drive. The turbo lag sucks though and it doesn't have that Mustang low end torque. I was planning on leaving it stock but don't think I have the will power! Maybe just some wheels/suspension mods since the engine mods sound like a pain in the ass to do and its a whole other learning curve.

Good, practical choice for a DD.

But that is why it is a DD. Don't touch it, put the money in the stang!

Get a Jeep Cherokee. They are cheap, have the great 4.0 I6 and have awesome low end tq that makes them fun to drive as a DD.

I was originally thinking of getting a Tacoma 4x4 extra cab but then figured the Subaru could fit 4 more comfortably, fit the dog better, get better gas mileage, and be a little more fun to drive. Ill stick a rack on the roof for the mountain bike and be good to go. And I'm sure the mods will come eventually but it will never see a fart pipe on the back of it!

I have always loved the WRX, even the freakin wagons are cool. They are really good cars if left stock.

We had one hell of a winter here in Northern Virginia. A co-worker of mine has a Suburu, and never had to miss a day of work.
