Best of 3 Honda's owned

I have owned in the last 6 years 3 Hondas (Accord, Passport, and CR-V). The CR-V offers me both a little of each past car. But, the CR-V gives me better gas milage then the Passport. More room then the Accord with the security of all wheel drive. I think it is a great choice. Do you really need the bigger gas guzzlers? I found out the hard way - NO. The CR-V can transport just as much. I drove this out west for 2 weeks. A great ride.

Generally nice vehicle, but far too many unnecessary standard features, while much-needed features (like a door lock switch on front passenger door) are missing.

A good alternative

The car completely lives up to the quality I have come to expect in a Honda. Two small complaints, 1)the small back window makes the blind spot bigger then average and 2) the handling in the rain is not as stable as I would have liked.

Not A Hylander

Initially I wanted to purcase a 6 cyl. Hylander, my wife talked me out of it because of the poor gas mileage. Instead we went with the CR-V, because not only did we get better gas mileage, but, we got a car that has as much horsepower as a family of 3 will need. In addition, we took it on vacation in July, packed it to the top, and included five people. Needless to say, even packed full, we had more than enough power, and we ever got about 26- mpg on the highway. Wow!!!

RV Tow Car

My husband and I own another Honda car (1997 Accord EX Station Wagon) and just love it, so decided to look at the CRV for a tow car behind our RV. The car works wonderful for this purpose, but we thought that would be what our use for it would be. We were wrong. It rides and runs so well, much better than our Ford Explorer Limited, that we take it more places than the Ford. No question that the ride is smoother. Thanks for asking................
