I currently drive a 1998 Toyota Tacoma, but I am throwing around the idea of buying an Impreza. I'm typically driving on steep and rocky fire roads filled with puddles not more than three inches deep. The off roading that I do is on trails that a stock Jeep Wrangler could handle, so I'm debating whether or not an Impreza could tackle the trails? I've seen a few Subarus offroading before, but they were mostly the older wagons. Thanks.

You will be just fine with an Impreza, though I wouldn't get an 08' Check out my wagon below. Its my daily driver and its an 06' I was once a truck guy but love the capability of the Suby's!!

and maybe look into an earlier outback sport edition if you're really worried about clearance?

Welcome
If it helps with your decision I've had my OBS out on some roads/trails that a car had no business being on and we're still here to tell about it.

An impreza could easily handle those road, just get a skidplate and a rear differential protector and you're set! (You might even conside a small lift too)

Welcome to the boards, you really can't go wrong with a subie. If you think an impreza is too low you can always consider a Forestor or Outback, but the Impreza really would be ideal for those roads.

You would def be fine with an Impreza, you'd love the versatility.
