It would be nice if Subaru did make a pickup again and as we have owned a total of 11 Subaru’s so far, each with almost 300k before trading them in or giving away I can tell you the Ascent platform would be the best uni-body to work with since it has the taller roofline for headroom while entering and exiting, larger engine bay for later changes and larger size rear area for a bigger bed without any major design changes.
The major design and construction cost work is done so this platform would be the best “payoff” for both Subaru and its customers in the shortest amount of time.
