Local siting in Vancouver

I just came into work today and found a Pearlie in my office parkade.

Left my business card with the Network url on the back.

Here is a smaller size pic:



I have a larger pic in my locker under sitings.

This is the first one I have seen in Vancouver, other than the three basket cases I test drove at dealers.

It appears that this car belongs to a coworker that I know, and I was even in the car about 2 years ago for a ride. CRAFT.
I'm trying to convince him to go for the meet in Seattle on Jan 25th, as I won't have mine until after.

He is having some tranny issues, told him to join and post. He also got an outragious quote from Subaru dealer to change spark plugs. Are they really that hard to do?

I have done mine. It was fun. I thought it was not hard. A lot of stuff has to be moved to get to them. One of the favorite topics of conversation around here.

There is a how to somewhere. If you can't find it, I can get it for you. Maybe on the 25th.

Yeah get that guy to drive you down!

The spark plugs are an outrageous labor cost I guess because of the time involved. I've done mine though and they really aren't that hard. It is just a lot of time involved because of all the stuff you have to removed from the engine bay. And make sure you have a lot of tools in case you have to get creative. That how-to was VERY valuable to me though.

Earl - IS the 25th the meet?
