2016 Subaru Outback
Subaru vehicles have increased in popularity in recent years—and for good reason. Being a reliable provider of sturdy, rough-and-tumble family vehicles, the Subaru brand is home to many high-performing SUVs—perhaps most notable among them is the Subaru Outback.

This engine works alongside a six-speed automatic transmission that allows for swift and smooth driving wherever drivers may find themselves.
The 2016 Subaru Outback is also highly efficient compared to other SUVs, getting up to 25 MPG on city streets—which makes it great for commutes—and 33 MPG on highways, making it an equally great choice for outdoor family activities. These numbers would slay the competition today in a battle of fuel economy, yet these figures were first posted nearly a decade ago! Coupled with the fact that Suburus are notoriously long-lasting, a pre-owned 2016 Outback could be the best investment you make for two decades.

2018 Jeep Wrangler

2021 Ford Bronco Sport
Of course, when you’re talking about powerful SUVs, a fare from the Big Blue Oval is bound to come up—and with an impressive arsenal of dynamic and efficient vehicles, narrowing it down to just one Ford can be difficult.

The 2021 Ford Bronco Sport touts an impressive list of standard safety features, helping keep you and yours protected as much on the highway and city streets as in the bucking, untamed backcountry. Among these features is the Lane-Keeping System with Blind Spot Assist, which helps keep you from merging inappropriately, as well as monitoring for vehicles that you might not have noticed.
The Cross-Traffic Alert keeps an eye on what’s behind you so that you can back out of a parking space with confidence, and the Automatic Emergency Braking helps to apply brake pressure as soon as an impending or potential collision is detected. If you get this model for off-roading, you’ll definitely want to go with an off-road trim or opt for the add-on to get the 180-degree Camera with Split View; this will help you monitor your surroundings as you course rocky or uneven terrain—or even when you’re parallel parking!
