As part of this special 25 Year Anniversary Issue, we’d like to offer our appreciation to the advertisers who appeared both in our very first year—as well as this issue.
To those who took that initial leap and wrote a check (and it was all analog checks then) in 2001, we sincerely thank you.
And to those who have come aboard since, and continue to support, we thank you as well. Much love.
In 2001, we were kids in beat up Subarus with a belief we could make this happen. In 2026, we have kids of our own, still drive older Subarus and believe we can continue to make this happen. With the support of an incredible community.
Thank you.
