I have a 2020 outback and I use a C-Tug. Depending where I'm launching, I frequently load up the kayak while it's on the cart, then wheel it down to the water/ramp/dock/whatever and just walk the cart back to the truck. Overall, I really like it. Nice to not have to use the scupper holes. I will say my kayak can get pretty heavy when fully loaded and the wheels can start to dig and drag when pulling through very soft sandy areas. Even with the SandTrakz wheels. But that's more an issue of me overloading my kayak than anything else haha.
Only other issue I have is it can sometimes be difficult to get the wheels perfectly straight, but it looks like they have a newer version "C-Tug R" that gets rid of the flat supports in favor of what looks like rails that would be much easier to line up straight against the hull of the kayak.
