Dealer that wants soa to keep the baja!

Post by yellowblaze »

I wrote a quick email to the dealer we bought the critter from, to tell them we're lovin it, and wish it wasn't getting discontinued. This is the reply:

"Glad to see you are getting some great use out of the Baja. It is not
definite that they are going to discontiue it. I sell alot of them and I
would like to see Subaru continue producing them. If you have any
questions feel free to call."

Thumbs up to Glanzmann Subaru in Jenkintown PA!

Yeah, I don't know which is worse-the ridgeline or the tribeca, they're both so FUGLY. I almost fell off the couch when car & driver named the ridgeline best midsize truck!

I don't know about the Tribeca, but the Ridgeline is uber expensive to boot!

I read a reivew of the Ridgeling by an off road enthusiest group (internet somewhere) and they had to quit the evaluation as the ridgeline was making some pretty awful creeking noises while attempting their aproach testing!

Sounds like the body structure isn't up to the off road rigors. At least the Suby doesn't have that problem. I haven't heard anything weird, except for scrapping front bumper!! Mike

A Mudrat front bumper is in the works when I am rich. Too much cash to put out right now. Mike
