Welcome Aboard, Glenn, and congratulations on your new 'mistress'. I like your 'Rocket' term... I'll have to remember that- it's a fitting SVX description.

There are no 'stupid' questions, only stupid answers.

I, too, have been driving Subaru's for quite a while (since '81- GL 4WD Wagon) and have been spoiled with all-we'll-drive here in our northland- you never want to go back to 'ordinary' 2-wheel drive again.

Have Fun.
