What car did you give up to get your Outback?

[SubieNubie]

I sold this:



2004 Ford Freestar, 26k

And bought this:



2000 Outback wagon, 109k

We decided we didn't need 2 minivans and since I liked my sister & brother in law's subies (96 OBW & 92 SVX), decided to find one for me. The Ford we were given by my mother in law after my father in law passed away, and though it was in near-perfect condition, was just not very comfortable (our kids hated the back seats) and got lousy gas mileage. Of the 17 cars I've owned, this is my first Japanese car and I love it!

Gave my brother my '92 BMW 5 Series ... mint.
Bought the '07 Bean Wagon SWP.
Traded in my daughter's '98 Honda Civic ... fair.
Bought her an '07 Impreza Sedan SWP.
One daughter to go and i'm done for a while.

I kept my 1995 Chrysler LeBaron convertible, partly due to sentimental value, partly to have a backup/beater car, partly because it would have been worth next to nothing compared to the purchase price of the OBW.

It's in need of quite a few repairs now, but most of it is stuff I can do myself cheaply now that the weather is good again.

I'm looking forward to getting it back on the road, it's a fun spring/summer car!

I gave up my 92 Chevy Blazer Silverado with the 350 in it. A great truck and still going strong with 205000 miles on it! i started thinking of my daughter starting to drive next year and didn't think the Blazer was a good starting vehicle. Too much horsepower, and a little squirrely in 4wd too.
But twas a great ride...sigh...Not looking back!

2003 Chevy S10 crew cab I bought brand new. I miss it somewhat, but not enough.

[ETC]

a 90 fullsize bronco that i lifted and modified the **** out of, stuffed a lot of money and blood [knuckles mostly] in that truck but couldn't justify having two huge gas hogs in the driveway. fortunately though i lost my @*# on it, i sold it to a friend who appreciated the work i put in it and still has it and uses it for what it was meant for.

no pics on this computer, just imagine a really nice lifted version of the infamous oj bronco. if i ever boot up the other computer i'll post a couple pics of the truck getting some big air off sand dunes.

1999 Nisan Pathfinder.

I really miss the cargo space and the ride height, but he OB XT has that fun factor that outweighs those.
