Subaru’s marketing machinery loves to remind you every 5 seconds why its Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive (SAWD) is far superior to any other version of all-paw power delivery on the road… or off it. And since it’s the marque’s 50th anniversary of the system, we’ll let them toot their own horn with a rollcall of some of their most iconic models hitting some picturesque routes to mark the occasion. It’s easy to identify the very first Subaru to sport the SAWD from the short video here. Obviously, it’s
