According to Kelly Blue Book's (KBB) 2021 Best Resale Value Awards, the Subaru Outback has the highest resale value in the Midsize SUV 2-Row category. If you've tried to purchase a previously owned Outback, you know this is true. You will find the Outback costs more if you live in the Northeast, Rocky Mountains, or Pacific Northwest, where the brand is most popular.

How can you buy a used vehicle out of state?

A report from CarFax says, "Even though the vehicle is a fair distance away, never buy a used car sight unseen." You should get a vehicle history report and take the time to have a used vehicle inspected by a local mechanic who can evaluate its mechanical condition. They can alert you to any possible mechanical problems.

Many buyers will fly into the city and spend the time to check out the used vehicle thoroughly. After you purchase the car, you can drive it home. Or, if you have done your homework long distance, you can have it shipped to your home.

The 2022 Subaru Outback is a popular model, and you might have a hard time finding one this fall. If you choose a used model, you will pay top dollar and, in some areas, more than blue book value. If you buy a used Subaru Outback in Alabama, you could save some money.
