Thinking of buying a 2006 Baja. Thoughts?

[keroo_c]

I've been looking at a Subaru Baja for a few weeks now, and I'm thinking of buying one in the next couple of days. According to cnn.com, Consumer Reports named the Baja the most reliable truck of 2006. Any advice? warnings?

Just don't tow anything extraordinarily heavy. Also, it's not really a truck. It's more like a car with a bed. An Impreza with more ground clearance and a bed (and some other minor things). I drive an Impreza, and I couldn't be more impressed with it. There have been a few times when I wished I had a bed on mine, but usually I'm glad to have the aero advantage for racing purposes. I can tell you, it's great for mud and minor off-road adventures. The added ground clearance of the Baja would be even better.

A Legacy with a bed, to be more precise.

Actually, I ended up buying a 2007 Forester and I'm quite literally in love with it.
