Hello, I'm a new owner of a 1999 Subaru Forester S with 260,000 miles. This car is number 21 of cars I've owned. I'm a self proclaimed gearhead. I've been in the Army for 20 years now as a musician. It has been great, it has taken me and my family around the world.
Back to the car. This car get 27 MPG with that kind of miles, incredible! I have no idea of the service history so I was wondering about some prevent defense. I changed the oil and everything looked pretty good underneath. It does need a boot replaced on the passenger inboard joint, I figure I'll replace the whole axle half. I think a new timing belt and clutch may be in order since I have no idea when they were put in. Thanks in advance for any and all help.
