Great rides for the new school year

The Adventurer
Getting to and from school is one thing, but for the student who wants to escape the city for a day or weekend of hiking or camping, the Subaru Outback is a perfectly suited wagon/SUV to do it in. This vehicle will get the Adventurer wherever he/she want to go thanks to its renowned all-wheel-drive system. Fun to drive and incredibly versatile when it comes to lugging gear, the Subaru Outback does guzzle a bit more gas than the average subcompact. Also worth keeping in mind is that the seals on the joints tend to wear out after 100,000 km. A good solid choice, your potential next used Outback does merit a good inspection, because the repair bills could pile up. In other words, students, study up before you fork over the dough!
