GF and I pulled up to have the emissions tested in the Outback. Guy comes out with the ODB2 tester plug and proceeds to chat me up.
Guy: Ah, a Subaru, eh?
Me: Yep.
Guy: Did you know that they were going out of business?
Me: What?
I'm not sure where you heard that...
Guy: Yeah, it was on the radio! They're going out of business by 2014.
Me: There's no way that's right- The demand is so high there's a 4 month wait on new WRXs and I think this year has been record month after month sales... Are you thinking of Saab?
Guy: No, it was Subaru. If they only sell one car... it's a supply and demand thing.
Guy: ...and I'm pretty sure I heard Mitsubishi was going out of business by 2015, too.
Thankfully, emissions here only take about a minute to do.
