    I am still debating selling the Camry for an 01-03 manual Subbie Outback.

    Subies are fun in the right setting, just not for me right now. If I ever get to a point again of wanting (and affording) two vehicles I would definitely consider another Subie as a DD.

    So I am having a guy make some drawers for me:

    Something like this:






    He is charging me $275, birch wood, painted flat black and using 500 lb full extension slides.

    Thoughts?

    No, I am not good at carpentry. So please dont say to make them myself.

    Heck...I think they look great. Did you get to design them as what you wanted? Either way...a lot cheaper then getting ARB storage draws!

    Easy and simple storage idea.

    Actually I'm surprised that he can even build it for that amount? Birch isn't a cheap wood. Yeah...I think you're getting a great day if this includes both labor and material!! You always get the awsome deals!!

    He is correct...birch usually runs about 50% more than MDF. Birch is Actuly a tree, which MDF is just saw dust glued together!

    He told me if I went MDF, I would save $75. I just went ahead and went for Birch. He advised Birch would handle humidity better.

    The guys at work were looking out the window and saying stuff like "look at that awesome Toyota", "I wish I could have a nice rig like that", etc.... I thought they were talking about my Runner....turns out there was an old FJ parked across the road at another business

    That's because it's saw dust and falls apart when it gets wet!
