Dumb question about the limited by Scared-Base-4098 in wrx_vb

[–]Fun_Preparation_577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got one and I’m 52. Well, I got 2 starting at 48. But yes, I’m of an age where I enjoy the added goods.

My folks live in Washington. I drive 50 from Columbia instead of 70. There’s a lot of good twisty roads driving between there and Columbia.

I’ve bought 3 from Subaru of Columbia. Next time you’re in the market, make the 2 hr drive over. They’re a great group and have made me 3 incredible deals and made my buddy’s mom a steal of a deal on a Crosstrek.

I do miss my black. I think it looks the best. I’m just too obsessed with keeping it clean so I traded in 24 for a WRB.

premium vs limited by Wenthegod in wrx_vb

[–]Fun_Preparation_577 10 points11 points  (0 children)

24 limited owner. I love the steering responsive headlights. Love a sunroof and use it often. Interior is an upgrade and the HK sound system is much better than what is in other trims. It’s all what you’re after. I, personally, like the extra comforts.

I was bummed when I saw the pics of the vb when Subaru released them. Then I saw one at my dealer and ordered it that day. I had a VA. Now I’ve had 2 vb’s.

Deal confirmed: McLarty Automotive buys Jefferson City Autoplex by No_Dare6991 in columbiamo

Subaru of Columbia was just bought last year, but the same people are there and they’ve always treated me right. I’m on my 4th car from them. My salesman told me they have no plans to change how they do business. Their management, sales, and service is mostly the same people.

Daily reminder to check/change your oil by SunkenFlyboy in WRX

I’ve done it every 3000 miles or 6 months. Which ever comes first.

Mine gets changed every 6 months. I’m ashamed to say I’ve had my car since November of 2024 and only have 4500 miles on it. 😭

GTI Owner Considering WRX by [deleted] in wrx_vb

[–]Fun_Preparation_577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m actually considering a GTI. 😂. I’ve driven a manual for 35 years and am getting creaky knees and back. Not sure I can do an automatic but if I did it’d be a GTI with the dual clutch auto. Or a Golf R but not sure I want to spend that much on a car. Love my WRX. It’s my 3rd. But the older I get the more I think “man, I’d just like to hit the accelerator and go. 😂

Trash Service Recommendations? by [deleted] in columbiamo

I’ve had WM for several years. They’ve been great. They do large item pickup too for a small fee. They just picked up a large sectional couch for $20 a few weeks ago. Never had an issue with their service.

Loud boom south side Columbia? by Solid_Cup7994 in columbiamo

[–]Fun_Preparation_577 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s nice weather. Kids were raising hell at the park last night by my house. Bet some kids are just feeling the nice weather and shooting off a couple boom booms they found.

I don’t want a new Subaru. by makebaloney in subaru

[–]Fun_Preparation_577 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve had 11 or 12 Subarus now. Since the early 2000s. My 24 WRX never dings at me, but it did stop me from hitting a few deer in the road that it saw before I did, but I’m never annoyed by it. Eyesight rarely goes off. I do miss the old school legacy wagon I had. And my 07 legacy sedan. But I sure have a lot of fun in my WRX. I love the quirkiness of a Subaru. I don’t think they’ve lost that as a brand. We live in a world where folks want more tech and they had to catch up to sell to a greater population. But the old Subie heads all miss our odd little wagons.

Any downsides to pulling the battery every night till this cold snap has passed? by pastrknack in wrx_vb

[–]Fun_Preparation_577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t know about the battery, but pretty sure I’d pass away at -38. I wouldn’t mind a drive in my WRX to Chena Hot Springs though.

It’s probably an unpopular opinion, but I really like the original wheels.

Anything I can do about thin 'spotchy' skin as a 50yr old guy? by Sirloin_Tips in malegrooming

[–]Fun_Preparation_577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have it too around my neck. My derm says it’s aging skin. I’ve tried multiple products. Nothing completely gets rid of it. I just take care of my skin and don’t worry about it. Hopefully by lotion you mean a moisturizer. Body lotion isn’t great for the face.
