Awesome! I've got a 2001 Subaru that I use to get to trails. Same thing; sometimes I have to walk, but at least I'm not beating up my main car for getting the kids around.
I was initially thinking about getting a Subaru but after working on a few it really discouraged me due to the level of difficulty
Head gaskets in particular suck to swap
I got lucky in that regard I guess. My mechanic told me that I got the one model of Subaru that doesn't blow the head gasket. So fingers crossed!
Otherwise, yeah, Subaru's aren't easy to work on at home.
