The 2025 Subaru Crosstrek Wilderness is an all-wheel-drive compact crossover that has been upgraded and enhanced to be the most rugged and off-road capable Crosstrek in the lineup—that’s impressive, as even the base Crosstrek can get most people to their campsite without unnecessary drama. Subaru, a brand aligned with those who enjoy the outdoors, adventures, and pets, first introduced the “Wilderness” trim on its Outback and Forester in 2022. In 2024, the Crosstrek joined the… Read More →

The verdict: Though it’s due to be redesigned in the near future, the 2025 Subaru Outback Touring XT is one of the most comfortable and refined SUVs in its class.

I’ll be honest, I don’t really like cars. I like going places. I love going to the park, the beach, daycare, Petco, new places, places I’ve been before, and the other park. I just wish I didn’t have to ride in the car to get there. Trust me, I’ve ridden in a lot of different cars over the last 11 years.
