So I plan on driving from FL to OR. I have an older (93) Subaru Legacy Touring Wagon (AWD/turbo). 168k miles, 4 new tires, new oil, breakfluid, tranny fluid, etc. No major problems with the car. Who forsees us (the car and I) making it in one piece?




**Update**
The car and I made it successfully with no problems. With about 3 hours left in the journey a semi shot a small rock into my windshield creating a very smal chip. That being the worst that happened, I can't complain.
 
Not a prayer. My Subaru 1600 is sitting in a junk yard in Ranger, TX where it died on a trip from KY to AZ. Make sure you have plenty of freeboard on your credit card.
 
I predict part of the wing from a passing airliner will fall off, crushing you and your auto. Dreadfully sorry about that.
 
We managed to drive from NE to WA and back on a 1994 Ford Aerostar with 150k. It can be done, but I sure hope you have good road-side if you do break down.
 
Have you had any problems with it overheating? Had the radiator flushed lately? Checked all the belts and hoses?

No problems with the car, has 2 new drive axels in the front, and a new fuel pump as well. Have had everything gone over by 2 mechanics (My father, and a local shop.)
 
I made it from DC to seattle in one piece alone, that makes me believe anyone can do it. Be sure to stop and see the sights....
 
ive made it to and from sacremento to mexico many a time in my 70' bug and the people that had it before me drove it cross country, anything that was a problem before fix it now and you should be fine
