    Sorry folks, I'm finally parting with Minnesota. It's time for me to move on to bigger and better things in life... like turboz and wheels and such. I just want to say to everyone I've met online here and offline, it's been good! I really enjoyed being a part of the MNsubaru club even if it was for a short while.

    As some of you know, I decided to take an engineering job out in Connecticut. I start on Wednesday and I'm leaving MN today. There is a huge Subaru crowd out there and I hope to be sharing some future experiences that I may have with everyone here on MNSubaru.

    The fun experiences and people with MNsubaru will always be kept in my memory. I know better now that world peace is possible within the Subaru community.

    I plan to visit MNsubaru every now and then and I hope to share pics of me in CT and possibly some of my car with other crazy mods I may come up with. Until then, I shall leave in peace and harmony and drive off into the sunset with valuable memories of my short life in Minnesota. As long as AWD and boost prevails, there will be a place in my heart for MNsubaru.com.

    Remember folks, it's "All We'll Drive!"

    p.s. Where's my money foo's?!

    Wow! Thanks everyone! Great responses here, I really appreciate them!!!

    I just got into a hotel in CT. I made it in one piece, no crashes, no getting pulled over!

    I stopped by my new house that I'll be moving into tomorrow and it turns out that I live like 2 miles down the road from a Ferrari dealer! Woot!!!

    Thanks everyone, I will cherish your comments forever!

    I request that you find and beat Jon [in CT] to within an inch of his life. Anyone familiar with this jerk from the NASIOC Engine Management and Tuning forum will probably understand.

    Brian - thank you for sending the rock blockers for the fogs. I still have them.

    I'm doing okay, could be better. I'm thinking I'm going to move back to CO in about a year or so... but not without making a pit stop in MN. ;)

    The first time I met you you were very interested in my sexual preference. My supposed "bisexual" preference.

    It was a general statement... This particular thread was bumped because I wanted people to know that I haven't forgotten about them or their requests. :)
