Welcome to Doug's Couch. If your a returning guest, you get the appeal of the couch. If you are new, you may be wondering, "What the hell?" Here is the low down. I, Doug, have a couch that I bring with me to a whole bunch of different places. Usually places that you would not see a couch. I take a picture, we have fun, we move on. If it is deeper than that, then I am missing something too.

The "Suby" Hero Car

Best Blogger Tips www.tips-fb.com
Today I stopped by Northwest Performance to see the "Suby" Hero car. Ian, the owner of N.W.P., shared the couch and the story of the car with me today.


The car belongs to Private First Class Adam Trost. Adam's 2004 Subaru STi arrived at N.W.P while he was on duty in Iraq. It was in need of a new turbo and a few other parts. While the "Suby" was at N.W.P, Ian got word that someting had happened in Iraq. Adam had been shot, nearly point blank, in the chest during a sweep of an abandoned building. If it were not for his vest and the force of the shot knocking him out, he would have been dead. As a battle insued over him, Adam lied on the floor unconscious...he awoke in the transport vehicle shaken, but alive!


Ian and others have now found a way to say thank you to a solider that nearly lost his life for his country and all of us here. A "Suby" Hero fund has been created to make this STi everything Adam wanted it to be and more! Enough money has been raised to get a new Turbo and a few other parts. N.W.P. is donating all of the service work and all the parts at cost. Every dime that is raised is going into this STi.
