I have had my car since new. Now, with more than 95,000 miles, it is still an awesome car! I enjoy driving it and am so blessed by the reliability of it. I've always done my routine maintenance suggested by Honda and have only had a couple of things outside of that done. Good ride but not exceptional comfort. A little too much roadnoise if given a perfect situation. But, still one of the best on the market! The only thing I would like to see changed is the corner posts of the car. They are rather large and get in the way of driving with full view on curvy roads. Oh well, I just lean a little and voila!

Would have never bought a non American car in my l

My name is ROBERT, as my headline says I would’ve never bought Anything but American made cars I did this for my wife And I am pleased to say this car or small SUV/utility vehicle made by Honda was outstanding yes 321,223 miles on it it has a 2.0 in line four-cylinder automatic transmission all wheel drive all the time and it’s still good on gas I I have taken this vehicle where the Polaris off road vehicles cannot go I have driven this 98 CRV almost straight up out of a water canal for the storm drains which I watched Toyota forerunner four-wheel-drives made my Chevy Ford Nissan Chrysler Tried to go up and cannot make it I started at the bass and I Climbed right up and out and left everyone else in my dust. The only vehicle I would compare the two would be my 1970 full-size four-wheel-drive bronco lifted lifted 18 inches . This is one hell of a vehicle finally after years and only a year and a half with me which I’ve put About 25,000 miles on it but I put it through the hell end it has kept going my problem now I’m broke down Only because my CV axle passenger side broke on me when I was doing approximately 60 miles an hour through very rough terrain Santa Ana River brewing where is Hank Californi only because my CV axle passenger side broke on me when I was doing approximately 60 miles an hour through very rough terrain Santa Ana River bottom in Riverside California. I also this should surprise everybody including the manufacturer I spun my driveshaft and when I mean by that is that my driveshaft looks like a candycane that’s how much I twisted it and it still going . You talk about a vehicle that can go anywhere and do anything I mean I’ve pulled out 1 ton crew cab Chevy diesel’s and fit’s trucks SUVs cars out of the out of the very things I put this car through . The only thing that I would change is only give it a better transmission stronger and maybe a little tougher a little bigger drive train. I would definitely buy another one but I would pick this car for a small family that wanted to do whatever they wanted to do because this is a vehicle that would do it thank you Honda you made it congratulations ROBERT and Jennifer

Just a few words to the wise.Change the transmission fluid every 30,0000 miles or so being it's cheap because there is no filter. I waited and transmission started acting up after 60,000 miles. Also be sure to check cabin filter. After 7 years it was terrible. It is located behind the glove box. This is a VG vehicle and I recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable used car. Fun to drive and like a cat in snow. Go Honda !

Love My Honda

I've had this car for a few years now. Bought it used at the Honda dealership. It runs like a charm with over 100k miles on it and is standing up to normal wear and tear of the interior. It doesn't have as much power as a car with a bigger engine would but I'm not driving up any mountains so that's okay. I'd rather save on gas anyway. Interior design is nice with four cup holders up front and lots of storage space. There's a center console and a hidden drawer under the passenger seat where I can store napkins, maps, etc. Silver was a good choice because it's holding up nicely in the California sun, no fading or anything. When I buy a new car I'll likely buy the newest CR-V.
