2008 Honda CR-V consumer reviews

What's good: Gas mileage - 30 MPG on fwy, 22 in city Handling - fun to drive - feels lively Has enough power - not a hot rod but is more than adequate. Takes a few thousand miles to break-in. Rear seat back angle is adjustable. Many SUV's do not have this option and are too upright. What's not good: Styling. Some interior surface materials seem cheap. Rear cargo floor is kind of flimsy. Shelf in rear cargo area can only hold 20 lbs.

After test driving rav4 and shopping around for a mid size suv I decided that the best car for my money was the HONDA CRV and I am glad to tell you that it was the best decision I have ever made, handles like a car, looks great, rides excellent on the highway, mpg is good compare to other suv's on the market, enough head room for adults, crash safety is rated at 5 stars which means good, a lot of goodies come standard in the Ex model: moonroof,steering wheel control for radio and cruise;power mirrors,privacy glass,6 cd changer,security system,lock prevention and a lot more, I didn't give it 5 stars on the overall because I think Honda could have done better in including integrated turn signals in side mirrors and adding a rear spoiler, that would have just made this car perfect.
