" And then, with the more perishable stuff like milk and such, they'd just buy from a local Mom & pop store. Lotta people raised chickens too, so they'd have fresh eggs" The sad part of the story in ND is that there are few Mom & Pop stores left. When gas was cheap in the 90s everyone drove into the big towns for everything. In just the last 10 years I've seen a number of stores close in the areas I visit. People are going to regret not supporting those stores when they had the chance. They are now gone and there is little chance any will come back given the declining populations. The one exception to this is that many gas stations are turning into convenience stores. So if a town was lucky enough to keep the gas station they have some options. NG did an article a few months ago about ND. http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2008/01/emptied-north-dakota/bowden-text

General Motors will phase out Buick's Rendezvous and Rainier next spring and replace them with the near-luxury Enclave crossover. Bowden said the eight-passenger Enclave likely will have a transaction price in the "mid-$30,000 range", close to the Rainier but "considerably more" than the Rendezvous. "We're taking (Enclave) to the next level, whether it's the style, quality, craftsmanship and quietness of the cabin," said Chong-Ae Shah, Buick product director.

flipped the brake pad right rear friday before last, before memorial day, called the shop at 5 pm and made a tuesday appointment. knew going in the rotor was scarred badly, that I needed one there. pads were "yellow" on all wheels, and I was at 57,000 miles, so had all four brakes padded and caliper, rotor, etc. work done, and the 60K maintenance done. no problem. nice, clean, pretty brake parts when they were done, and everything worked just fine with no noise, no sticking, no chatters, no nothing except smooth braking. until saturday afternoon. after 15 miles on the interstate, pulled off and went into several stores on several stops... last one was the home despot. came back to the car with the fiancee, hit the brakes to shift out of park, and the brake went down three inches... hesitated, and then right to the floor, boom. tried again, boom to the floor. a little crawling around showed the right front brake hose had blown big time, about an inch back from the caliper connection block (bosch calipers on exploders, so they have euro-style block fittings.) nobody I called stocks 'em. so called triple-A for a tow to a nearby station on their list, which has a fairly decent word-of-mouth. now, did somebody rotate that caliper over while working on the brakes, to kink an old hose and cause it to fail? very strong possibility. there is also a strong possibility that a 57,000 mile old, four-year-old hose failed all on its own. will mention it to the dealer, but not make a major case, for precisely those reasons. BUT the emergency brakes did nothing for me, despite being tight as a tick at the pedal. that is a big no-no, you should be able to lock your e-brake, set the car in gear, and not move. even when you run the RPMs up a bit, and I've run to 2000 and stayed in place. that is the law, those e-brakes should hold you in gear. and they did before the work. THIS I do intend to bring to the attention of my service manager, along with the full story, and that I do think they need to get back under there to adjust that brake properly because it's already paid for, and sign off that it works, and I will be right over there waiting until it is done. two possible comebackers on a job. one is possibly conincidence, possibly not, and it ain't gonna do me a bit of good to whistle about it much. so I won't. the other is somebody missed a step (or two,) and they need to make it good. should be a few minutes of labor that makes the tech get home a little late, so he doesn't forget it again. that I am going to insist on. the shop has been good for me, they have a decent rep, and I can go next door and get a spare euro hose-from-hell in case something blows up again, so I will be ready. I'm not ready to call colorado and see if anybody else is making tanks from bulldozers, and for hire. cars crap out, and ( ) happens, and nobody died from this one. it's why I have brakes and steering done by certified professionals, so I can sue 'em if I have to. I shouldn't have to, and they shouldn't screw up another one for a while after losing one of the new nice, clear, dry early evenings of spring to a foulup they made days ago. if the guy tells me I need two more brake hoses and a bowden cable for the e-brakes during that looky-loo, then I expect he will be red-faced enough to not want to be wrong again. that I can understand and respect. if they told me they need to rotate the brake light bulbs and rewax the stones in my tires, that is a whole 'nother universe and such will be pointed out as is required. and that would affect future patronage, and the guys know it.

Bob Bowden's reviews on www.thecarplace.com have a survey question. The results are at http://pub.alxnet.com/poll?id=2177890&q=view and there is also a review of the WRX STi on his site.
Thanks!

Thanks for the kind words. As many others have said, it was the enthusiastic support shown Subaru products by you folks that really clinched the decision. Bob Bowden's reviews, the results of the NHTSA and IIHS crash test results, and the great reliability of Subaru vehicles also helped greatly. Bob, it came down to Woodland Green or Pacifica Blue. I prefer a gray interior, but the looks of the Woodland Green won out. I will try to post an update Tuesday sometime after I get the car back, and also at some point try to include some photos. If the weather holds up, I think I will drive the back roads this weekend and put some scenic miles on the car. That break-in period has to end early! - Lou
