    Default towing with a subaru?

    Anyone do any towing with a Subaru?

    Would towing a uhaul trailer from the PNW to Alaska be ok?

    -The issues as far as I can guess are the rough roads and whether it could cause damage to the awd.

    Car is a 00 manual trans subaru legacy. I think it has the smaller of the available engines.

    Or check your owners manual. Thing is, you won't know 'til you head down the road, but if you exceed the towing spec even by one pound then Subaru will throw their hands in the air and say "what are you going to do"
