About :: Scott Putnam
My name is Scott Putnam and welcome to
my way of life! I live, eat and breathe Subaru. In this
site you will find everything you ever wanted
to know about Subarus (Well, maybe not everything
yet) and then some. I hope you find this
informative and useful.
I am Fleet Sales Manager at Morrie's Subaru in Minnetonka, Minnesota. After you've
read all the great stuff about Subarus and

day without one, let me know! I can do business anywhere in the US, and perhaps save
you some of your hard earned cash.
