Subaru GT wagon, 1999
Camping?
Sleeping in the back? Cargo dimensions?
There's lots of room in the back of a Legacy wagon. Subaru is the #1 selling wagon for a reason....
There's almost 43" from the back of the rear seats.
Enough for the dog, and more .... like camping ....
68" of flat cargo floor length with the rear seats folded down.
Now I can sleep on that.

NEW FOR 1998 LEGACY.
Brighton Wagon: Now has right side mirror.
Legacy L Models: Rear seat head-rests (wagons), new interior fabric, overhead map light with sunglass holder, ashtray and lighter included.
Safety: 1998 Legacy airbags have been 'de-powered', meaning they balloon with less force. Production of these starting in September 1997 with the following Vehicle Identification Numbers: Legacy sedan W*204868, Wagons W*307101, Outbacks W*617283, Postal cars W*307141. In conjunction with the new airbags the front seat belt tensioner was re-adjusted so these new airbags are not retrofitable. Always check safety issues with your local dealer.
NEW 1998 MODEL - GT LIMITED SEDAN:All
new model of the GT Sedan, available in White, Rio Red or Black Granite,
comes with automatic transmission, leather interior, am/fm/weatherband/cassette/CD
