I was concerned with the comfort of the Outback seats for long trips too. I thought I'd get better mileage with a station wagon, but the boxer 4 seemed underpowered, and the b4 turbo eats premium and doesn't get much better MPG than a Pilot.
You'd probably be shocked at how few Pilot's I see on the road here. A lot of competition and foreign car haters I guess.

I've considered the size issue as well - I just don't like sitting so low.
The seats are REALLY what makes me the most hesitant about the Subaru - and it's strange cuz I have about 400K miles in Subarus from when I used to own them and never found the seats less than ideal.
I'm at the point that we will either make the best of getting our Pilot back on the road - or take the money and run - to the Honda stealership that has the best price on a new EX-L.
