Hi Together, I had 5 years a 3l outback from the previous series. Genuine vehicle however in trailer operation too thirsty compared to a 6-cylinder. Diesel I had until recently. (Total damage) Now I think about buying a 2.5i from 2006-8 with manual transmission and gearbox reduction. Advantage: Gas conversion with valve liquid possible Questionable is: Is the torque really enough for a 1.5t trailer for long distance on the highway? (France, Sweden etz) How is the verb target speed: 100 net Driving habits: 25-30tsd km/year, of which 5-10tsd with said trailer.
