49. The dirt covers the paint chips.

50. You and your friends mean totally different things when you say "V8".

Have no doubts, wagons are TEH COOLEST EV4R!
63. You are happy and willing to put pink parts on your car.

64. You think your B pillars could withstand an attack from Godzilla.

65. You think your in a Subie brotherhood and want to wave at every Subie that drives by.

66. When behind another Subie, you habitually recognize the Subie rear differential... like dogs sniffing each other's balls.

67. Most often wants to drive the subie over the other cars in the family stable.

68. You pray for rain.

69. You pray for snow.

70. You feel the need to put a rally pig sticker somewhere on the car, even if hidden.

71. You give girls bonus points just for being a Subie driver.

72. You can't pass a dirt lot without feeling its siren call.

73. You turn on the defrost and you've suddenly lost 100 hp.

74. You see the Corvette that beat you the day before is now being pushed by its owner off the slick spot in the morning snow...and you honk.

75. You wonder why it's so hard for people to push the door closed without touching the windows when your car is clean.

76. When driving in the rain, you wonder about the swirled collection of water that sits in the middle of your rear window when driving around.

77. Anytime, anywhere: You'll know a scoobie w/ exhaust is coming up to three blocks away.

78. When you pick your friends up, you don't have to call, or get out of your car: your exhaust does the job for you.

79. You have a serious addiction to NASIOC, it becomes almost a chemical dependency; sometimes you debate rehab... then you log back on.

80.
When you're at a gas station and some Ford guy says "Wow, I know a V-8 when I hear one" or "That thing sounds meaner than my truck, what did you do to that thing?"
81. You search out for the biggest parking lots the day before a snowstorm.

82. You'd rather go to a windy mountain road than the drag strip.

83.
Your more concerned with suspension mods than anything that adds

I actually got my fingers stuck in my '08 a couple of times. First time I went to shut the door and leave, I couldn't. It didn't hurt until 2 seconds later when I realized what happened. My buddy had a big old laugh on that one...fml that day.

Hmmm. Don't get me wrong, our cars handle great but... AWD + mcpherson strut = FAIL.

Our cars will understeer just as bad as a FWD car
