Doesn't look much different than the course we took all the Subies on for the ride & drives last year.

Would be a lot cooler if they launched off those hills.

Do all the 2009s have dual exhaust or is that just the first time I've noticed it?

Offroad? That's not offroad, that is like driving on a dirt road for the first time in your life!!! Heck, I drove on worse terrain with my lowered Hyundai Accent on 40 series tires towing 2 dirtbikes

Default Off road?

Not impressed! Show it off road in the mountains in the background on some real bad two track.

Yeah, "no comment" on if that's actually offroad or not. That's probably farther offroad than the majority of '09 owners would ever take one. Unless they let me borrow it.... bwahahahhahahaha

Some pretty nice footage of the 09 off-road capabilities in this vid, about 4.20 into it:
