Honda CR-V Usados en Venta en Raleigh, NC

Overall, the CRV is a strong vehicle, especially for a family or a new driver. It is reliable and consistently outperforms other used cars I am familiar with (among friends and family). It is affordable and roomy. I love the table in the back and use it all the time! I also appreciate the height at which it rides, allowing for easy viewing of the road. It doesn't have great acceleration or a "strong" engine so maybe not good for mountains, but on the East Coast, it is perfect.

The vehicle has an overall good feel to it. The seat is high so you can see what is around you. The acceleration can keep up with many smaller cars. The handling is similar to a small car, including a tight-turn radius, which is unusual for an SUV. There is room for two large car seats and plenty of cargo room. One of the seats folds down, so I can carry home large items from home improvement stores or carry my surfboard (a short board). It has overhead luggage racks, although I have not evaluated how well they might work. The seats are not exactly comfortable, so long trips can literally be a pain. Road noise is an issue at highway speeds, but not while driving around the city.

I bought my sky blue Honda CRV in 2011. This past Nov it was 7 years old and only has 51,000 miles. I had a CRV previously and loved it also. This CRV has held up well and has no mechanical problems. I replaced the tires two years ago and have been pleased with them. I usually have the battery checked when it gets to 33 or 34 months. Usually it has to be replaced. I have found that Honda batteries give no warning and will die so I keep it checked. I love the color of my car and have not had any electronic components to cause issues. I also like CRVs because of storage in the back. I have two homes in two different states so I am always moving small pieces of furniture. I can really get a lot of stuff in the back. My only complaint is the seats. I do not think they are comfortable and the backseats are worse. On long trips I always use a pillow to support my back.
