First Subaru purchase was…
First Subaru purchase was 2018 Outback. Test drove both models, but found the Forester front passages side seat was fixed to the floor. No adjustment except tilt back. Was told all Forester models are the same. Not the same problem with the Outback. Plus, with the moonroof on the Forester and fixed seat height, my 6’-3 body height, I had to tilt my head to miss the moonroof molding. Love the Outback, bought another new one in 2023. Did you check this higher seat for adjustability and head clearance?
