Low down on Subaru Baja?

I've been thinking of downsizing from my 2002 tundra, and just found one of these Bajas for sale near by. Any owners here? Experience with them?

Thanks, Richard

Think of it as a outback wagon with an open bed instead of an enclosed cargo area.

If you like the outback wagon and want to toss something that weight wise, would be OK in the back of the wagon (but can get wet and COULD be taller), then this is probably a perfectly good utility vehicle.

Some people think they look odd, I think they look fine. You can also get them with the turbo engine for those moments when you simply MUST get r dun quickly!

I like the Baja but then I fondly remember the Brat too. No experience unfortunetly.

I see it as the Ranchero/ El Camino of this era. The cargo area is small, smaller than the Brat. But it does carry four in comfort. I read that it is a dog with out the turbo.
Clearly a like/ hate thing on the looks.

Cheers Richard
