I went to Home Depot this Sun with the fam, wanted to buy some cleaner. We walk in, how do you quickly find the cleaner? You ask one of the workers. We get our marching orders, and on our way we go. Then we saw that the Home Depot is selling these tiny lime trees. COOL, we pick one up, and thought hey its tree planting season!!! Before you now it, an Apple Tree, a Cherry Tree, and on we go, before you know it, we have a few items in the cart, and no cleaner yet.
How do we get these trees home + 4 passengers?
I have a bad habit, when I drive, i keep my right hand on the gear shift. But lately and maybe I imagining things, I noticed that while i am driving, the gear just pops out of 4th gear, and i find myself in neutral, with a nice rev
Does this happen to you?
It did not hit me until this week, i was driving, and needed to clean off my window. I hit the spray button and nothing. I thought hey, wait a min, does the WRX come with a warning light that tells you when the water levels are low? It does not look like it, i pulled up and filled up the tank and off I went.
Those sensors are cheap to install, most cars have them, why the WRX does not is beyond me. Anyone know if there is a good reason why Subaru thinks a low water level warning is a bad idea?
What kind of Oil do you put?
I am up for an oil change, the first one i got, i got at the dealership and they put a semi-synthetic oil in the car. I asked the mechanic there, and he said there was no need for synthetic.
However I think at car this fast should get a synthetic oil, plus i dont have to change the oil as much if i go that way.
So what do you think? should i go to a fast lube joint and load up on synthetic? Is there any oil that works better for that kind of car?
Hi Folks, we need your help with this one.

The Subaru dealership says no problem do you have any towing info onwrx
I have no idea how to answer this, can you chime in.
This weekend, I took the car for a spin in Quebec in a very hilly area on my way to a ski hill.
Just to describe the area, and I wish I had pics, but anyway. Like they say, Quebec is “la belle provence” and there is a reason for it. The area was very hilly, lots of steep ups and downs both short and long. Tons of winding roads which make the drive both challenging and fun. One of the hills I had to go down, then up, had a 21 degree slope which ended in a nice left hand turn.
I have to say, I had a blast. The car performed so well, I did not feel that it was choking going up, and had excellent control going down. I loved it when the car pulled to an incline right after it finished completing a down slope, and when I gave it gas on the way up, it just launched.
Can’t wait to get back out there.
Believe it or not, the summer is coming 
soon the snow will melt and the snow tires will be off. Question is, do you stay at 91 octane gas?
I was told that when it gets hotter, the car will lose some kick, and its better to put 94 octane gas, which is fine, Its only a couple of cents more, and fairly available here.
Thoughts?
