he's a biker, the sound of anything on two wheels gets him to let down his guard. Show up on bikes then we sneak in to "talk bikes" after that it's all fair game. LOL

They did away with the XT for 2010. So she'd have to find a 2009 or older.

i have had to replace a clutch recently, but other then that as long as you are not a complete idiot and clutch drop, doughnuts or other shit to try and beat it up, its held up nicely, esp since the 2002, 2003 were known to be weaker i havent had a issue, the newer trannys were improved in 2004

Subaru boxer lower ends aren't very good because the bearings are fairly small. Force feed it and it exacerbates the issue.
