"Tailgating is a time-honored tradition that has always revolved around one central item - the perfect car," said Patrick Olsen, Cars.com Editor-in-Chief. Tailgate parties have spread to the pre-game festivities at sporting events besides football, such as basketball, hockey, soccer, and baseball, and also occur at non-sporting events such as weddings and barbecues.
In schools and communities nationwide, there are athletic departments, coaches and parents of student athletes who rely on post-game tailgating parties to build community and support for their program and team. Smaller, underfunded programs are assisted by the voluntary participation of parents and friends to feed the team and coaching staff post-competition, which establishes a strong core of support year after year.
How does Subaru add to this tradition? The Subaru Outback's rear gate lifts easily with plenty of headroom to stand beneath it. Designed with convenience and utility in mind, the rear opening maximizes the usable cargo area making an easy in/easy out loading space. One of Cars.com (and customer's) favorite accessories "the Outback's standard, removable cargo tray means you can make a mess, remove the tray and hose it off - making cleanup a breeze". Everyone loves easy cleanup!
