The station wagon is by far the most impressive vehicle in this exercise.

[@nope1918]

Pretty impressive show from the Outback imo. Especially with those tires, seemed like that was what was holding it back more than anything else. I bet with a set of snow or winter-rated ATs it would handle that trail with no problems at all.

[@anthonyjulson8840]

I think those tires are 3 peak rated, if that's what you're meaning.

[@nope1918]

@@anthonyjulson8840 That just means they're good for snow/ice on paved roads. 3PMS doesn't mean it's good off-road use, which is what they're doing in this video.

[@dannyboy1984]

Pretty impressive for the Wilderness considering it has stock tire

[@BraeburnTV]

You have to drive the Outback differently. Keep throttle pedal pressure and let the computer find traction. Most people instinctually lift off when there’s wheel spin but that’s opposite of what you should do. If there’s traction to be found the car will find it

[@HeimataSq]

I totally agree. I have the outback wilderness and have had other outback’s. The way it finds traction is totally different. It needs to loose grip b4 it tries to find it. But the problem in situations like this it might make u kiss a tree or 2 and it Could be a lil unsettling. My girls new gen Kia Sportage doesn’t seem to look for traction as often.

[@Honestandtruth007]

It's all about Ground Clearance and the Right tires

[@NorthShoreBronco]

Tires are so important. Makes the world of difference.

[@offroadbandit]

Love your videos! Love seeing that bronco in action. One super tiny thing I'll say, I love hearing the crunching snow, the sound of your engine, and your dialogue way more than the music. This video without music would be perfect, or at least without music during times that you have audio available. Just my two cents though. Either way, I'll keep watching the vids. Keep it up!

[@NorthShoreBronco]

Thank you! I appreciate the feedback. I know what you mean and I'm trying to find a balance. In this video it was really windy and the sound was muffled, so I decided on music. My last video I did without music. Thanks for watching!

[@evoman44]

One thing that I have admired on the Bronco that I wish the Outback had available is the 7 speed manual option with crawler gear. That would really make the outback even more capable.

[@NorthShoreBronco]

OH man, with the low center of gravity, imagine how fun that would be in the snow!

[@johnkkkj]

@@NorthShoreBronco Both you guys should know you have a low gear ratio but you have to put the shifter in manual mode and stay in first gear! it will not shift unless you use the paddle shifter to shift it, so don't shift it keep it in first gear and x-mode.

[@tundraspecialops]

Both vehicles did this test run with less than ideal tires. The Bronco ran mud tires which are okay, particularly in fresh snow. The Outback looked like it was running on all-season tires which is even more less than ideal. Impressive results none the less, however proper tires are everything even for 4x4's and all-wheel drive vehicles when you take them off-road. That also includes the smallest size wheels, and the most tire wall for a given tire size to allow room for airing down in mud, snow and sand conditions.

[@NorthShoreBronco]

True. We should of aired down. Would of made a big difference. We are both new to this and learning everytime we go out!

Or take 5 in the Bronco and not get stuck lol. Don't get me wrong I love Subies but after driving three of them don't count on them offroad.

[@MarksTech]

@@ZepG depends what kinda off-road adventure you are looking for. I put about 500 miles off-road on my Subaru so far and it’s been great. Obviously not a rock crawler, but that’s also not what I’m looking for

[@ZepG]

@@MarksTech I'm not just talking about rock crawling, my biggest problem with Subies is the delay getting power to the wheels that need traction. I was just in Vermont in December and was driving my Inlaws 2019 Forester back to our rental cabin and just hitting a few patches of snow on a hill caused a lot of unnecessary wheel spin, My Fj Cruiser would have not even slipped. Subaru needs to have a locking diff option!

Yes it's all about tires. I have a 16' Outback with aggressive snow tires that are great in the winter for some light off-roading.

[@Deetroiter]

Where the Subaru was having the tough time making the corner, the snow reminds me of the temps just above freezing where it’s that wet watery type of snow but the temps are also just cold enough that it won’t slush up or melt. Always makes for a fun time getting traction

[@NorthShoreBronco]

Oh for sure. There wasn't much traction that day!

[@mtnrunner2]

I'd be interested to see the Subaru with equivalent AT tires on it. I have a 2013 with winter tires all year, but they don't have the tread of AT tires, and they do slip on steep, uneven terrain.

Unfortunately, tires just aren't in the equation for now. Maybe next winter. I'm really not claiming the Baru can out off road the Bronco, I do enjoy pushing the Baru though especially in stock to see what it can and can't do (without wrecking it as it's our only daily driver at the moment) once we can get together more often we'll be sure to either talk a lot more smack about the other vehicles, or really focus on teamwork... Haven't decided yet. :) Also, you guys need to remember, Steph is the one editing all his videos with no input from me whats-so-ever so there is that bias point of view to consider. Haha!

Once he gets some snow rated a/t tires and maybe a small lift on the subi he will be in business.

Subarus do good in snow. Obviously ground clearance is an issue for serious off road use. They lose head gaskets around 100k. Notorious.

Being able to change quarter panels and grills, etc. That’s awesome!

Pretty hard core

[@douglasdever6134]

Toyo AT III....yes.

[@danbrown8310]

Yes bronco is more capable but what is price difference

[@NorthShoreBronco]

All depends on what you want! It's less than a tank!

[@jon7926]

Put some All terrains on that sub I n it would do so much better

[@NorthShoreBronco]

Agreed

[@justabrake]

You really can"t compare the two without changing the Subarus tires it's the traction not the transmissions between these two

[@NorthShoreBronco]

Oh yea for sure. I keep telling him to get new tires! This was just a fun day to get out and have some fun.

[@vincefairleigh6899]

It’s way more than just tires, it’s about a locking transfer case with a low range the bronco has and the crossover doesn’t, and 2 selectable lockers on the bronco vs traction control that sucks… this terrain wasn’t really challenging… that’s why the crossover kept up.

[@Patrick-qv8qe]

Lucky he didn't break his arm!

[@elraff9975]

People saying how capable is the Subaru off road .......hmmm comparing with a Toyota corolla? 😂... The guys are awesome though.. cheers have fun!!

[@NorthShoreBronco]

Pretty much! haha. More adventures to come. Next we might do a Bronco Vs Subaru how far between gas stations video haha.

[@Inmate533]

Bald tires on the subaru?

[@NorthShoreBronco]

No, just sub par "all terrains"

[@Inmate533]

@@NorthShoreBronco Yeah, I thought the Subbie was looking a little extra sloppy there. That Bronco is beautiful though and seems to handle those backwoods like a monster. Great vid! 👍🏻
