07 Outback vs 08 Outback

I know the 07 outback's hull went through a major change from '06 to '07, what, if any, are the differences between the '07 outback and the '08?

one of the many dealers on this site will be able to tell you for sure, but as far as I know, there were no hull changes for 08 on the OB. You will get the upgraded drive (minor changes but good ones) and I think the yaks are packaged slightly different (08 comes with a gear bucket but 07 didn't etc).

IMO, there really isn't a reason to get an 08 over an 07 if you can find an 07 (new or used) since you should be able to get a healthy price break on the 07. That is what I did with my recent 07 Adventure purchase. I saved about $400 getting a brand new 07 instead of the 08.

As noted, there were some major changes between the 2006 and 2007 OB hulls, but nothing major between 2007 and 2008 so far as I know. Here is some info concerning the re-designed 2007 (and presumably the 2008) Outbacks.
