I still want one...

I still want the 1985 Subaru US Ski Team 1800 GL Wagon. Saw this one in Sheridan Wyoming and had the same feeling I did as a teenager.

Subaru started producing the Ski Team model in 1978 when Sub's were still roundish...but this was by far the coolest one. As you can see this particular version is of the Nordic Skiing type, but still drooled over it.

Wax up those K2 VO SL's, grab your orange Lange XLR's, Scott World Cup poles...donning a Demetre padded sweater, Roffe Stretch pants with the powder gaiters, Bolle goggles or ISki red/white/blue sunglasses, and meet me at the corner at 6am.

Oh boy...I would have given my left n_t for one of these baby's in the 1980's
