the PO was a subi kid, had no idea.

and,
i put in a newer deck that wasnt a tape deck haha, and a little amp and liiiiittle sub. and a rear speaker, for now.
and music actually sounds like music, less like a dying cat. and. the new stereo doesnt pick up the frequencies of the motor haha. the old tape deck whined if i had it on the radio.
and saw some redneckery going on when i was at my buddies place. picked up a mickey though. so now i have 2 tires with tread on my truck now.
and dropped a couple lbs.

Very nice deal on the Truck. 700$ running and driving 4x4 that does not have the frame falling off is very rare around these parts.
