A lot has happened in my life since buying the Subaru, though that car has had an integral part in the happenings. For starters, it picked up Lily from the airport in Orlando late in August, very exciting for me. It faithfully transported the two of us around my home town and the outlying favorite places that I've wanted to take Lily to for so long, very fun for me. Next it relocated the two of us all the way to California, making stops along the way to stay with relatives and friends, a lot of relational growth for me. It then became a daily commute for me as I stayed across town at Lily's eldest brothers house, as well as being the run about vehicle for our wedding preparations, very exhausting for me.
At this point the Subaru takes a very quick turn, and of course it handles it with exceptional skill (because of the superior suspension design of course) as it becomes the vehicle to whisk away a very very happy two people how shared the ride together before, but now it's the getaway car for their wedding day, very awe inspiring for me. It takes them to their honeymoon spot in Santa Barbara where it feels like high class in the swank parking area of the private cottage, unbelievable for me. It once again sets it's course for the other side of the country, this time bearing the load of the wife's personal belongings, but it doesn't flinch, very long for me.
Here the Subaru rests, save for a four hour trip to Miami where it drops the newly married couple off at the cruise terminal relinquishing it's duties to a large ship bound for the western Caribbean, very relaxing for me. And now the Subaru continues to prove it's worth by driving me to work in the mornings and allowing Lily to figure out the new town she's living in, very rewarding for me.
So you see, this car has been in the thick of it so to speak, and all the while we haven't had as much as a whimper from it. I couldn't ask much more from a car, God has blessed us with reliable transportation that is hard to come by in the price bracket we were in at the time of the purchase, I believe He is the one deserving of the thanks for this, and for our safety through it all, all 11000 miles of it so far.
I wonder what this car will do for us in the future?
Till next time (which may be a while).
