At first i read that "father to six" and I was thinking that a lot of kids! Then I read that as "father...to a husband," and I was confused! Point is, i've been in a 2 hour conference call and your post made me giggle because I'm tired.

Welcome!

Haha. It was fun while it lasted. But over engineering and constant maintenance made me go a change of automotive scenery lol.

 

[Alin]

Are you glad you got an sti? Not only that but a 15!

 

[Brandon]

I am glad! I've wanted to get a Subaru for quite some time now. The new body style came out around the time I was in the market to purchase a new car. I'm super happy with the car. Not everyones a fan of the looks or the fact that it's still an old EJ power plant, but I'm very satisfied with my choice.

 

[Alin]

Im very happy to hear that!

Welcome

Haha, yes wayyyy over engineering lol.

@Brandon do you know @Spamby? If you do we feel bad for you! :rofl:

I do not know [MENTION=1507]Spamby[/MENTION] lol.

This place seems a lot more welcoming than the other Subaru forums I have been lurking lol. I think I'll stick around here lol. [MENTION=1]IGOTASTi.COM[/MENTION]

 

[Alin]

Were respectful towards other enthusiasts. You wont find another place like us! :tup:

 

[IGOTASTi]

Everyone lurks on us, lol.

 

[Brandon]

That's awesome. I've been on many enthusiast based forums in the past for all makes and models. Most of them are quick with the "n00b, you don't know anything" blah blah blah. It's nice to see a positive change for once.

I'm usually not a huge poster. I do a lot of research and only post when i feel a topic hasn't been covered or is relevant to others. But it's nice to know there are enthusiast who you can genuinely speak with without backlash for typing something slightly wrong lol.

We're almost 5 years old.

Great things take time. :goodjob:
