Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Outback vs. Tacoma?

Oh yeah and, get the bigger engine. Nothing more frustrating or disappointing than under powered equipment of any kind.

i've had a outback since 15, it gets 26mpg all around, seats 4 comfortably, can haul at least one deer and a bunch of hunting clothes and 8 foot pieces of lumber. it will go through snow like no other 4x4 that i have owned or driven, including jeeps. no idea on the towing part though. my subie is a great vehicle. 29k OTD.

bettern phaggots. i ain't got any problem with most lesbos

Birdie,

I do see lots of Subarus with bicycle racks on them - not so many Tacomas. Maybe there is a hidden message there for you.

Birdie,,
If you have to ask..................

You're a sneaky troll aren't you??

The outback is great in the snow, almost unstoppable if not too deep. I also know you can fit a bull elk in the back of one if you leave the hatch up! Not sure if Birdie needs to consider those options though, hot in Texas!

Yep, another one. Haters going to hate. Subaru does have some funny leanings, but they still build a pretty good vehicle. I own an Outback, a '17 with 55K trouble free miles. I have not owned a Tacoma, but have several friends that do. I have ridden in, and drove several. Loud, rough ride, and for myself 6'2" 185# a piss poor seating position. Maybe different for others. If I need to pull the "Man Card" My Truck is a 2500HD 4X4 with the Duramax. It will go and tow anything I have any business trying to do.

Unstoppable if not too deep???????????????????

Seriously.................. how wide open is that.

Same ground clearance as a stock Jeep Wrangler, and a better 4 wheel drive system. Do a You Tube search on crazy [bleep] done with an Outback.

I do but I an OK with same sex mirages..........as long as both chix are smoking hot.

That said ....this seems to have turned into a bit of a Taco fest sooo.....





Lets see some Subarus loaded up for the outdoors.

LOL!

Taco is almost never the wrong answer.

That said, Subarus have a good rep also.

20's.

20's.


Same here.

Had a 06 Tundra 180k miles and traded for a 2017 4door Tacoma--Love it!

I went through my Subaru phase. Wouldn’t buy another.

Get a tundra and a canopy.

I haven’t ridden in a Tacoma in years, but I like my friends’ Tundras. With the exception of two folks we know, most of the Subie drivers I see have Bern, Warren, or faded out Hillary bumper stickers or some such lib garbage on them. I’d say turn in your Man Card for the Outback. They sit too low to the ground for me. Hard to get in and out of too. Happy Trails

Tacoma’s are certainly reliable vehicles, but they are terribly uncomfortable on longer trips. That said, I would never find myself driving an Outback. Hard to beat a good ol F-150.

Decisions, decisions, won’t happen till at least next summer anyhow.

The appeal of the four-banger in the Tacoma is That appears to be the lineal descendent of the legendary R22 motor that built the reputation of Toyota trucks in the first place. Also I don’t need a truck with alla the gee-whiz I’m a bad ass factory decals that come with the bigger motor, especially in 4x4. Far more likely to get f cked with when left in the driveway where I live.

As far as hard ride and discomfort go, I’m sorta oblivious to all of that, never have test-drove a vehicle before I bought it. Doesn’t matter.

JMHO

Really appreciate all the input here

A good friend of mine went in to buy a Tacoma, but it didn't happen. He's 6'4" and said there was no way for him to fit inside. Too tall.
