Big Jay's '05 FX Log
I purchased Lenore in December 2009, with just over 68,000 miles. She's a red Forester X and was stock when purchased with the exception of an extended armrest, which may as well be stock. Most of my miles come from the daily 14 miles to work and back, although I can rack up a good number driving to the ski resorts. I am a loyal Subaru owner, having learned to drive on an '89 GL wagon (although this is my first Forester).
I have a few mods in mind so far (admittedly a few more than I had before finding this forum). The plan is to keep the mods mostly practical and less for aesthetics. I'm not a huge off-road guy, but frequently find myself on some pretty terrible roads en route to some climbing or mountaineering destination. A skid plate and rear differential guard are thus high on my list...
Anyway, I'll document my mods and adventures with Lenore in future posts. Enjoy.
