The proposal is very unrealistic for weights. You want to tow something that you will live in for 4 months with Outback? Your configured weight will be 100 pounds shy of your tow rating. Do you plan to carry any food, water, clothes, tools, entertainment devices, bedding, pet supplies for these 4 months? People will add 500 pounds easily for a long weekend. I have a 2017 Outback 3.6L. I would not tow any high walled RV with it. A 1500 pound dry popup maybe, but there are compromises on how much it can hold, setup/takedown, and non-ideal weather comfort.
If you want an RV for 4 months, rent one you drive than can tow your Outback.
