Paramotor Support I adore my 2003 Baja. It’s just right for supporting both my outdoor lifestyle and my long commute. Recently, I’ve become a paramotor pilot. It involves strapping a two-cycle racing go-cart engine with a propeller to your back, hanging in a lawn chair from an oversized parachute and flying about. The reality of the sport is much safer than the description. It’s the cheapest, safest, most convenient way for the common man to fly. The whole flying machine only weighs about 60 pounds.
When coupled with the Subaru Baja, it’s also the easiest. I can put one or two of the assembled motors into the bed of the Baja and drive into any flying field to take off. FYI, I bought a yellow-and-black harness to match my vehicle. Noel Munson Staunton, VA Finding Subaru at Night Even if you know that Subaru and Pleiades are one and the same, I bet you couldn’t find it in the night’s sky. The Stikky learning method in Stikky™ Night Skies shows how to find the Pleiades.

Wild Wise is the zoo’s award-winning, statewide outreach program which teaches about the habitats and wildlife of Washington. This program reaches over 10,000 students every year and visits every county over a two-year cycle. ![]() The primary reasons we are able to take this program to schools throughout the state are the outstanding people and generous sponsorship of Carter Subaru, which has provided our program with a Subaru Outback since 2001 – the Wild Wise “Zoobaru.” From the hot, dusty shrub steppe of Othello and Yakima to snowy mountain passes like Steven’s and Snoqualmie, we have the reliable transportation to get us there.

When my 12-year-old daughter Lizzy saw the picture of Joshua Starmer and his cello in your magazine [Winter 2004], she knew she had him beat. My daughter has been traveling in my 1999 Subaru Forester with her string bass for the past four years. She and Billy (as it is known) have traveled to and from school for lessons, rehearsals and concerts. Both of them have enjoyed a very comfortable ride in our Subaru. Catherine Malina-Owens North Wales, PA Subaru Rentals Question by e-mail: Where can I find a Subaru vehicle to rent? Answer: Since Subaru is a smaller auto company, our vehicles are not as readily available for rental fleets as other larger import and domestic manufacturers’ vehicles. However, Subaru rentals are available in selected areas of the country:

Gone to the Dog I recently took photos of my dog. He’s taken over my car, and he loves my Outback, too. Doug Clasen Aurora, IL Just Don’t Call Me “Tubby” Here’s proof a bathtub can fit in a Forester. Vicki Forman La Canada, CA ![]() Subaru Drive Printed on Recycled Paper
