You Know You Drive a Subaru When...
You Know You Drive a Subaru When....
You go play in some mud and don't wash it off for a week because you want to show everyone what a Bad @ss you are
People over-hear you talking about meth-injection and ask "are you OK"
When you go to Starbucks to get an iced tea, not because you want one, but because there was a parking spot up front and you wanted everyone to see your car
You stay at the time/auto shop he whole time they do your maintenance because you don't want them taking it for a test drive
You suddenly try to justify buying a DSLR camera because you bought a Subaru
Your talking with family/friends and mid-sentance a Subi drives by and for no reason at all you yell out "SUBARU"
You look forward to running errands so much, that they take several hours.
When you look over and your passengers face is melted to the head-rest
The gas station attendant knows you by name
When your nephews refer to your car as "The Space Ship"
Your neighbors complain that your car warming up at 6a.m is their alarm clock
Your insurance agent personally calls you to collect you bill.
When old men in Corvettes can't take their eyes out of their rear-view mirror.
And of course... When squares with crooked brimmed visors driving Scion TC's mugg you
Not sure it this is a re-post, saw it on another forum and thought it would be fun.
Whatcha guys got?!

When you look at your odometer and it says 198,000 and you proceed to smash on the gas.
When you can hear a car from several blocks away and know it's a subaru.
When even your wife gets annoyed when other suby drivers don't wave.

The biggest thing for me is the rumble, i never knew till i got mine how distinct it is. I can always tell when a wrx/sti has rolled past my house or wherever i am.

LOL. So true.
You check out every subie you see, even if it is bone stock and driven by a grandma.
And then you think "with a few mods...."
Hahah. My dog knows when I am home long before I get there.

...when you work in IT.
...when you get excited to drive in bad weather.
...when you find yourself taking the windy back roads instead of the straight highway.
...when all the guys at the tire shop know you by name.
...when you just got a new set of wheels and you are already thinking about getting another set.

When you actually see someone with an iClub sticker and they are gone before you can throw the deuce up.

LMAO. Reminds me of when my buddy got his brand new sport bike. He came back from lunch...
Him: I just went to McDonalds.
Me: OK, and?
Him: In Monterey.
Both: LOL!!!!

When you tell a law enforcement officer "no I can not turn my car of yet, the turbo is cooling down."
When you drive way out of the way for gas, because you want a station that has one pump per grade of fuel.
When your mechanic says "your piston ring landing has failed"
When you write in this thread when you should be working.

when you meet a new group of friends and they all assume you know one of the guys because you both own subarus.
when your neighbor yells at you because they thought it was you reving their motor all night (when it was a group of harleys 3 doors down).
when GT mustangs take the next exit in fear.
when the girl in the passenger seat of the M3 is waving at you.

i was a bit weirded out but I tell her, "uh...yeah, why do you ask?"
she says, "i live across the street and i know when you start your car, it's time for me to wake up!"
I laughed and told her "the alarm" would be back in a week!"
