Subaru is very conservative in their tow ratings so you'd probably be okay but it depends on how often, how far and how hilly you''re talking about along with how experienced you are at towing.   -Frank

Replying to: happymama (Oct 24, 2008 11:19 am) Exactly how much does that camper weigh? 2400 lbs is the stated towing capacity for the Forester.   The V6 would be better for that, but you also mention fuel economy as a priority, so those are contradictory needs/wants.   You also mention ice and snow so go for AWD, and again you take a small penalty in fuel economy.
