PdxDave Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Hi All, I'm looking at purchasing my first Subaru and considering purchasing a legacy over an outback because it suits driving needs well for what the vehicle will be used for 95% of the time. That being said I am interested in driving the vehicle off-road a fair amount on summer road trips exploring the country. Basically looking to drive gravel/dirt roads with some ruts rocks but nothing too extreme. How does the Legacy do off-road? Is the 5.9'' ground clearance a deal breaker? I'm not looking to do anything my 1997 Honda accord couldn't do, but I've put that thing through some pretty sketchy off-road terrain that most would think to be nuts. My accord has 6.3'' ground clearance.... Any advice appreciated, thx! -Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scalman Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 (edited) hmm why not just go for outback then. its same legacy inside and outside with small differences and with great almost 8'' ground clearance. legacy and outbacks have very low front bumper its just getting in the way most time. otherwise legacy or outback doing great off road. if you dont need clearance though. and depends what engine youll go for. 2.5 wont have all bells and whistles that h6 3.0 will have. no VDC too. i have just over 10'' clearance now. still drives fine on street .
