My guess would be a Suburu.
I think you might be on to something.
I need to respond about the “Subaru” being a lib car. Certainly, when payment was completed, I told the previous owner, “the first thing I’m going to do is remove that bomus biden sticker”. This led to road of recovery of a very fine automobile. Lafeyette Indiana,by Fuji Heavy Industries. With some work, this has been an amazing vehicle. My Wounded Warrior Project sticker replaces the lib crap.

Or a Scion
I drive a 2001 Chevy P/U for towing a trailer. You don’t see any Subaru’s out here in the oil patch. But when I get to the mountains, my next car will be a Subaru. With full time all-wheel drive, it is great for traveling on paved or unpaved roads or in snow. Made in America is a great bonus.
And referencing climbing the “14’ers” should tell many of the younger outdoors group that he understands their accomplishment when they climb to the top of one of these - gotta be physically fit and have determination to make it there (though as Obama said someone “helped you” by making the rope! Ha!)
