2015 Honda CR-V - It's a decent car.
So I own a 2015 Honda CRV EX-L. I bought it because I wanted something that was fairly comfortable, had AWD, and decent gas mileage. I can't complain with all of that. The leather seats are sort of comfortable, although long rides tend to destroy my back. The AWD works well and it handles decently in the show. The gas mileage ranges from low 20s (city) to 29 (highway). However, it is an incredibly boring car to drive. It sort of drives like an athletic cow. Nothing terrible but nothing to get excited about. Passing can be difficult because the CVT is pokey. Give up the idea of quick acceleration from a stoplight. The brakes are soft. The roof rails not very functional. But, my son likes riding in the back and it does feel roomy back there. Although the rear seats don't fold flat, we ca... (more)
Story
We drove it to the Black Hills for our first family road trip. It was exciting, considering what we used to drive.
Pros
Decent gas mileage. Roomy. Comfortable. Looks good.
Cons
The irritating media screen. Slow acceleration. I don't feel manly driving it (sigh).
2002 Honda CR-V - It is a good first car and lasts long. Not luxurious
My honda cry is a great, sturdy car. It is the first car I have ever owned, and I think it is great for first time drivers and car owners. It has a thick, sturdy metal body and therefore I feel very safe driving it. The interior is partially leather, however it has a kind of puke brown color to it that is unattractive. The CRV features a very large trunk, which is great for someone like me who frequently transports large amounts of items. The car has a spacious interior, and seats up to 5. Since it is an SUV, it would be nice if it sat more people or if it had more seats or you had the option of putting more seats in the car. It is an attractive car, even though it is over 10 years old it does not look old.
Story
A few weeks after I purchased the car, a few friends and I took it mudding. This was in North Carolina. We took it off road into a local forest, and had a great time.
Pros
It is very spacious and has a great turn radius. The trunk is incredibly spacious and that is a huge pro for me. The car is attractive; mine is red, and the color is eye catching. It does not look nearly as old as it is. It is very simple to use; the dashboard is easy to figure out for even a novice driver. The air conditioning unit is great and works really well for even an old car. Plenty of room in the front and back seats.
Cons
The headlights are really dim. I wish the stereo the car came with was nicer; it often sounds kind of fuzzy. I wish there was more seating in the car. As the car gets older, it is beginning to shake and not drive as well (It is up to over 100,000 miles). The brakes are kind of touchy, and my biggest pet peeve is that the car does not get up to speed very quickly. It is also a noisy vehicle. The gas mileage is not that great, which is a huge negative for someone on a budget.
