It has a peppy 4 cylinder engine that's economical AND utterly reliable. Consider this to be a 200,000 to 400,000 mile auto. For RV's most importantly this year model, 2014, is the LAST year CRV that can be towed 4 wheels on the ground without modification to the engine/drive train. Simply add a towing assembly that you enjoy (Blue Ox for me) and go. My reason for owning two is simply that I tow my Honda behind a large diesel motor home. Should someone wreck one I still have the other. (and before you ask, yes they are the same color *G*) My only complaint with this vehicle is that at Interstate speeds the road noise inside is high. Bluetooth hands free cellular usage. Bluetooth allows usage of MY music from my cell phone or use XM radio.

I have always had fantastic luck with Honda. My first new car was an Accord. One of my favorite cars of all time was a Pilot. The Pilot was great with teenage kids and all their friends and activities. One of my daughter's chose a Civic as her first car. It held its value very well. Netting out the insurance payment after the last crash from the purchase price, she drove it for seven years and 92,000 for a little over $5000. After my kids were gone, I downsized to a CRV. This is my second one. The first one I traded my lease in at the end of the three years even up--even though it had 66,000 miles and needed tires. They are dependable in all types of weather from Wisconsin winter to California hot summer. This car has always driven great and the only reason that I am selling it is to buy a new car.

My first CRV was a 2005 with 120,000 miles and other than routine maintenance the only extra cost involved was a single rear caliper repair. LOVED it! Totally reliable vehicle that never let me down. Test drove a 2014 EX-L and was amazed with the comfort and handling. The interior is open and comfortable. Love shifter location, more room up front than the Rogue and Rav4. Headlights are def not as bright as my 2005 but that's a positive for me...was tired of drivers flashing their lights at me assuming I had my high beams on when I didn't. The fog lights do help to illuminate the road well when using low beams though. VERY pleased with my newest CRV :) Updated review: After 2 years my view on headlights has changed. Do not feel the range of low beams is adequate for viewing what's in front of me. Even with fog lights. 2 weeks ago it started making a grinding noise at startup when engine is cold. Researched online and found there are issues with the VTC actuator. It's scheduled for repair in a week. This fix requires taking the engine apart and that concerns me.

Happy with reliability of CRV. However, there were 3 things I loved about my 2010 CRV that are now gone. Floor to roof cargo height reduced by 8" (have to put bike on slant now). Open floor area between front seats (great for computer bag) now filled with a useless console. Middle folding rear seat good for putting skiies through and 2 passengers - gone to 2/3, 1/3 split - now skiies and only 1 passenger. Plastic grey trim on top level trim - ugly and cheap. So my favorite things about car gone and I am in work around mode. Probably will look at other alternatives. Hoping the tires on this car last longer than the 30K on 2010 model. Honda has turned a "Sport utility" vehicle into just another "family" vehicle.

Our 2014 CRV is still a very nice, reliable and economical car. We have had a number of Hondas and find them to be a good value. After 4+ years this car remains as new. My original comments still hold. We will keep this for a long time because the new Hondas have terrible technology; touchscreen that is confusing and a keyless fob - a non starter for us. The CRV has excellent seat comfort and seating position, great visibility, good ride and handles well ... as long as you don't drive aggressively. The sills are low and there is a lot of front door frame headroom and width - a good thing for over 60's getting in and out. It has a real key - not a fob and starter button, a good and secure thing. We just did a 1400 mile trip and got great highway mileage (33+). As with all Hondas, there are minor annoyances that mar an otherwise great car. We considered similar Toyota, Mazda and Subaru models and liked the CRV best overall. There are issues (see below), but all cars have issues. There are not many negatives. A major negative is Honda's boring color choices: gray, gray and more gray - come on, this is not North Korea. (update) Honda still provides a North Korean color palette. Come on guys, how about bright red?? The other annoying things is that the cruise control is useless - works very poorly. (Update) Cruise control is still useless. To sum up, Honda makes great cars, but drops the ball on specific annoying things.
