Hey, subarus are O.K. as long as they're a WRX, STi, 2.5RS, or a Legacy 2.5GT. Kids, just stay away from the Foresters and the Outback, oh and those dumbass Bajas.

You too huh? I was driving home from Harriburg off Rt. 83 and saw a Ford Taurus stationwagon in-gulfed in flames. Must be that time of year - San Diego, Surbaru's, Taurus's.
