#31163 of 31395 Saw the new Outback by tsy Jul 14, 2009 (11:43 am)
Finished my second STP this weekend (Bike ride from Seattle to Portland) and as usually the aid cars were provided by Subaru. At the finish line they had a new Outback- it is HUGE! It sure seems much bigger than the current outback- it must be pretty similar in size to the Toyota Venza? Not sure, I might have still been lightheaded from the bike ride! Anyway, it seems pretty solid but maybe too big now. Has anyone driven one yet? tom Replies to this message: rsholland (Jul 14, 2009 1:34 pm) tsy (Jul 14, 2009 4:21 pm) rsholland (Jul 14, 2009 4:28 pm)

Replying to: tsy (Jul 14, 2009 11:43 am) Believe it or not Tom, The new Outback is actually about an inch shorter than the '09 model! Yes, it's taller and wider, and has a ton more space inside thanks to the increased wheelbase. The front and rear overhangs have been reduced. The Legacy is a bit longer than last year's model, but not by much, 2 or 3 inches I think. I've driven several new Legacys and Outbacks, and they're really nice cars, much improved on the out-going models. I especially like the Legacy GT, with the 6-speed.

#31165 of 31395 plane crash followup by ladywclass Jul 14, 2009 (3:21 pm)
The man and boy were released from the hospitals on the next day - both with just cuts and bruises. I found it interesting that they were from the town where my parents live which is about 50-60 miles away on the other side of Houston.

Replying to: rsholland (Jul 14, 2009 1:34 pm) Oh, it sure looked bigger! Is it heavier? It did look nicer though. tom Replies to this message: rsholland (Jul 14, 2009 4:28 pm)

Replying to: tsy (Jul 14, 2009 4:21 pm) Not much heaver, ~ 50 pounds or so, depending on trim level. It is MUCH bigger on the inside, especially for rear passengers. Bob
#31168 of 31395 home .... by ladywclass Jul 17, 2009 (5:21 pm)
we're home after about 2700 miles in the Subaru in 10 days .... I am soooo lucky to have a husband that travels well with me! We planned to be back last night, but realized I had an aunt who was visiting in New Harmony IN, so we made a slight detour (about 45 extra miles) and managed to have dinner with them last night. We all visited until bedtime, then saw them again this morning for some antiquing in town. Stayed at New Harmony Inn which was VERY nice, and very peaceful setting. We had a (tiny) balcony that overlooked 'park land' and a lake. Very private. Enjoyed it a lot. Now if I didn't have to do the unpacking and the laundry ....
#31169 of 31395 Heeee's back!!! by rsholland Jul 27, 2009 (1:44 pm)
Post count in these forums just quadrupled today! Vacation must have been too good juice. I was beginning to wonder if you drowned over in Ocean City, or got swallowed up by the kiddy car rides (singing the Kingston Trio song: "M.T.A., " aka "Did he ever return."

Replying to: lilbluewgn02 (Jul 13, 2009 3:08 pm) Very sorry, Serge. That's just how it was with Ashley, my first dog. In an odd way it was peaceful. With Hadji I didn't really get a chance to say a proper goodbye, so we sent off balloons for the kids to have some closure. RIP Dina.
