We were happy to see Discovery channel teamed up with Revision3 to breathe some purposeful second life into three Subarus that are being used to bring great things to our communities. 

If you remember Pimp My Ride from MTV in the 1990s, you’ll be happy to know that instead of tricking out their Subarus with speakers, Jacuzzis, and huge rims, these Subaru owners are getting practical makeovers that make community building even…
