Has Your Car's Value Changed?

I should have bought one years ago!
Always go with at least an EX. Worth the price, you can always lease an expensive SUV, but you will never own it.

Low on power
I have a CRV as a company car so I driven several diffrent year models. I would not buy this car for myself, it is way too low on power for me, it needs around 50 more horsepower, I often have the gas pedal to the floor trying to gain speed or get out of the way of some crazy driver in Texas. If you are on a single lane road and want to pass an 18 wheeler you need to be able to see far in advance and plan the pass, because the pedal will be on the floor and there is no rush of power. Every year they seem to take something out of the car, one year they removed the pasenger arm rest, then they took out the driver arm rest. Around 20,000 miles the front rotors warped and needed to be replaced, I went to the Honda dealership and they said it was not covered, so I went to a repair shop and had new rotors installed at my cost. The CRV is loud inside, if I receive a phone call when I am driving on a rough road I will not answer the phone because the raod noise is really loud.

Shabby compared with 2006 CR-V Touring
We drove a 2006 Touring CR-V for 10 years. I never had a complaint. It was reliable, stable on wet/snow covered roads, comfortable, easy to handle, great vision through the multiple large windows. The 2016 Touring is no comparison. I can't drive it because of the bubbled hood and bubbled out sides that extend 15" beyond the side view mirrors. Lack of vision of the edges of the car has come close to causing 3 accidents. The navigation system is a joke. We've supposedly reached "our destination" in the middle of the Verrazano Bridge. Bluetooth is intermittent and frequently drops calls. Resale value, although the car is in near-perfect condition (one bumper ding), has dropped by 35% over 1.5 years. In other words, we're stuck with it. Worst car purchase of my 45-year driving life. Salesman yapped about his family for so long that tech support had left for the evening. The man knew absolutely nothing about the technicalities and intricacies of the car. Dealer offers poor to no support and failed to provide promised (in writing) free oil changes.

2016 Honda CRV EX AWD
This is my 6th Honda dating back to 1977. I chose the CRV due to living in a snow belt. This SUV rides very nice. The handling is good. I really like the driving position, it sits up high enough to see everything well at night. It has plenty of options. I like the amount of storage and the way the rear seats fold down. With my past experience with Honda's this should last a very long time. I am not planning on ever needing to purchase another car. No vibrations as some have mentioned with the 2015 model.

CR-V has no GPS!
Consumer Reports recently came out with a report that stated that the Honda CR-V 2016 has very poor traction in the snow. Takes forever to stop. This completely defeats the purpose of buying a 4 wheel SUV. When I called the dealership to tell them about the report, they said they had no idea what I was talking about. Should they not know?!; they sell the product! Now I am afraid to take the car out in the snow. Also, the rear view camera was fogging up on a rainy day, so I took it to another dealership to be looked at. They basically wasted my time; "found nothing wrong". And sometimes when I click the door unlocker twice, it does not open the passenger's side door. Also, they force you to buy "packages" when you order a car; we are senior citizens, and do not want or need all these extra bells & whistles! This 2015 CR-V has no GPS! Another drawback to forcing consumers to buy autos in packages. I am in dire need of a GPS,and I have not been able to obtain one yet! This is a major draw back and liability to this car! I have gotten lost driving around more times than I can count. Or care to count! Sigh. How exasperating.
