My family loves Hondas! For example, my daughter owned a Honda Prelude in 2001, and she still wants one now. Unfortunately they quit making them in 2001, and are very hard to find, but she would rather have a used Prelude over anything! I also used to own a CR-V, but I just didn't feel as safe in it, feeling top heavy. So I was so excited when the HR-V came out. It feels very safe and smooth to drive. It has all the advantages of the CR-V, but it's heavier and I feel much safer with little kids in the back. I also work a crazy job for a prominent local man. I never know what I'm doing from day to day, but it usually involves lugging huge things around town. Most of the people I work with own trucks, but now I get the benefit of a truck, without the limitations.
