Thanks for the feedback guys.
I forgot the biggest question of them all that could be a deal breaker for my wife...
Does the hatch back open up remotely?
Got to admit, sometimes not a fan of technology, and god fobid finding out the price to replace those motorized arms on the back of the vehicle, but will admit when we rented that CX-50 out in California, when you're carrying stuff to the vehhicle, it sure beats opening and closing our large hatch back on the Pilot (both my wife and I agreed that Mazda was not in our future though driving it for 10 days).
Really do like the looks of the of the Outback Wilderness, but also like the fact that it gives you the most ground clearance.
However, the time to buy a car is when you don't need one, and since we have multiple vehicles, may be some time before we go down the that road, added, as I get older my days of getting lost on backroads may dwindle and ground clearance may not be as important.
Looking online quickly used, under 45K on the odometer (generally what we do is pay cash for the best price we can find)...

Out of the above, anything to stay away from? Someone I thought mentioned a 6 banger. I thought Subraru only made 4? Assuming (prehaps wrong) the 2.5 abd 3.6 is a turbo? Anything Turbo good or bad with Subaru?
Also assume a lot of the models have to do with trim and electronics? Leather would be nice, but not mandatory. Other than a decent radio that you can plug your phone into for music, the more gadgets the worse for us. Will admit, I do like the automatic high light beam function though when driving at night on my company truck and my dads car though.
