i'm mostly kidding, but the CR-V is shaped about the same as a Forrester, it's not as much of a wagon as the Outback is

i signed the paperwork on 2 new ones, but the dealership is yanking me around on the delivery dates.

i've never been to a car lot where i didn't feel like i was getting bent over. i'd just appreciate a goddamned reach-around.

for future reference, steve bailey honda on NW expressway is the place to go if you're looking for a honda.

i'd been jacked with all over town until i went out there yesterday.

That's some salesman.

You do know you can only drive one at a time, right?

mr. "that's some salesman" wasn't from steve bailey and didn't make out as well as he thought after he couldn't deliver the vehicles as promised.

mrs. critical test drove the CR-V EXL the other night. i really liked it, so i bought one for my mom. don't say anything, cause it's a surprise. (she doesn't read this board.)

i couldn't believe how reasonable the CR-V was compared to other similar vehicles with the same options. for example, that new ford crossover with leather/navigation is about $5K more.

while i was in the dealership yesterday, a lady was trading in her '98 civic with 367,000 miles on it.


could be why the zips have been killing us in the car biz for the last 30 years.

I put 253,000 on my first honda and it never gave me a lick of problems other than the CV joints being junk.( I think they have since cured that ill)

I traded my 05 in for a pickup cuz I needed it for work but crap I am gonna go trade the pickup off for another one. I will take a hit but I will make up the savings in overall cost and fuel savings!

I would buy two but I will just use my wife's trailblazer for my work since I don't have to pay for the gas anyhow on it.

Have 120 K on my accord....still running like a champ. I kept it when I brought my gas Guzzling Suburban. Suburban only leaves the garage on the weekends, With $3 a gallon gas.

What is the gas milage on the CRV?
