Here’s where it gets weird. The Outback has a massive trunk. Some people treat it like a third row.

Let’s talk about the best passengers: dogs. The Outback is a dog lover’s dream. You can fit two large labs or three small terriers back there.
Dog people know this. They buy Outbacks specifically for the fur factor. The rear cargo area is a giant fur nest.
