    With all of the 'merican celebrities threatening to move to Canada because of how "awful" it is here, what brings you this way?

    Too bad we can't see that wagon on the cruise this year. Damn that's awesome.

    My fiancée lived down here and has her whole life. We made a decision based on cost of living, job opportunities, and family. We started the immigration process in June of 2016 and finally moved March 31st.

    I'm hoping to be able to fly up and drive the wagon down here before the snow flies it all depends when my work and travel visas get approved. I want to get it before I start working cause it's a 3 day drive and would like to spend some time visiting friends and family back home so would be hard to get a week or so off at a new job.

    Thanks!

    At one time I had my 93 legacy wagon, a 91 JDM turbo legacy wagon, and a 93 Impreza wagon that was ver3 JDM sti swapped with six speed. Was really hard to choose which to go grocery shopping in.

    Yes, I'm not on FB either. I can't see the good stuff. I'll assume it's entertaining.

    It appears to be that he called someone out about overpricing their oem brakes.

    Then failrad and andy started in on the new guy. Andy, i think that Ryan's starting to rub off on you. Maybe you should spend some time apart! lol
