If i was buying a car just for offroading i would buy an MY wagon,
its offroad ability in stock form is very good
I offroad light medium heavy and tour long distance and my MY04 Forester X, it does the job very well
My friend tours and goes extreme offroad in a 92 Lseries wagon 2"lift the rest is stock and its about to turn over 400,000klms or 240000miles
another friend has a modded liberty/legacy wagon and it goes everywhere its pointed
It all come down to $$$$$ i guess
