yeah seems good, i can do without the digorno thing but its there to keep me on track and not pigging out at mcdonalds after work.
Review time
John Wick 2
Badass as ever, just as good as the 1st one, Highly recommend it.
Subaru in winter
I have had enough driving this winter with the subaru to give a review I believe since I have been on everything as far as dry road, ice, light snow, deep snow, slush etc etc.
Car
2001 Subaru Forester w/ Winterforce studded tires
Achievements
Drove through a parking lot with 2.5ft of snow and just plowed through that shit like nothing.
Drove though my yard with a hill in deep snow like nothing
Slush it handles better than FWD and RWD. You're going to get movement either way but controlling 4 tires and powering out of the slush makes it a breeze
My driveway is 900ft long and one day it was all ice. I stopped going in both directions and tried to see if i could get the tires to spin out. I did but I had to hammer on it and it only spun for a second until it hooked and launched.
on compact snow its like driving on dry road.
Dry road its annoying with the studs but I manage.
I've had some near misses this year where if i didnt have the AWD I would have been fucked(not my fault incidents)
The rear hatch makes everything so much easier, will be a similar vehicle in the future.
For a cheap winter rat its 10/10, definitely not going to drive it year round.
Cons
It's small
not enough HP so getting it up to speed and hills are rough
the Cruise Control is irritating at times
Not a babe magnet
as a every day car then idk 8/10 just because of convenience and how it is in winter. If you're in the south then there wouldnt be a real point to owning one.
