When you’re in the market for a durable, capable, and tough SUV for the whole family, you’re likely to come across the Subaru Outback. We are proud to carry this all-weather, all-terrain vehicle here at Herb Gordon Subaru, but we know that smart shoppers will also want to compare it to similar vehicles like the Toyota RAV4.

Here is a brief comparison between the two crossovers.

If you’ve browsed our online used Subaru inventory, you may have come across a section called Certified Pre-Owned Subaru and wondered what exactly that is.

Buying from the Certified Subaru inventory gives you an extra level of assurance of high quality.

This concept is called Subaru scheduled maintenance, also known as a Subaru maintenance schedule, and it is one of the many services that we offer here at Herb Gordon Subaru.
