The verdict
The 2021 Subaru Outback Crossover Limited AWD is listed at $22,379 with 67,850 miles. The Caboose score is 7.9 out of 10, built from three things: how far below market the price sits, how much of the 200,000-mile target is still ahead of the odometer, and how often this model reaches 250,000 miles in the iSeeCars study (6.8% of Subaru Outbacks do).
The asking price is $878 (3.8%) under the CarGurus expected price of $23,257, which is a real discount rather than a rounding gap. That puts it in the middle of the pack, so treat it as a candidate to compare rather than a car to rush.
