Back then Subaru dealers were run a hell of a lot different than now. You've gotta compare apples to apples. Subaru was a baby still in 1978 in the US market but that still doesn't mean they were struggling as a company. If they were in rough shape, the SVX flop would have sunk the company before the end of the 92 model year run when SVXes were literally sitting around everywhere.
And it doesn't matter when someone was born to understand how a company operates and is functioning. You're basing it off your local dealer operations which was obviously a smalltime dealer since back then you had to fully pay for the cars before putting them on your lot or finance them and pay the interest.
