September 5, 200421 yr What are the main differences between the two? Anyone ever owned both and can give some insight about which would be a better buy? I am wanting the one that will be better to drive in the mountains and snow. I also enjoy long trips and camping. Thanks for your help peace.

The outback is based on the legacy, the forester on the impreza. The outback is a bigger vehicle but both are excellent choices for both mountain driving and camping. Drive them both and see which one you like.
September 5, 200421 yr We have had an Outback and a Forester. I concur in rweddy's comments. I would add that I preferred the Outback for long interstate trips because it seemed it was quieter and had a lower center of gravity. They are both dependable and relatively easy to maintain vehicles. Bill What are the main differences between the two?

September 7, 200421 yr Author Thanks for the advice. I have been driving a '79 VW Camper Bus for 4 years now as a daily driver and I also had a '93 Dodge Caravan, so I like the feel of the Forester better. I like sitting more upright and like better visibility vs. the Outback. peace.
