very dependable vehicle

this car has been very good to me. I consistently maintain the vehicle. It has performed very well for me and always has great pickup. It has served its purpose as it has ample room for lugging things or any any travel I do.

Reliable and holds value

This car is very nice to have for running around with plenty of storage, but good leg room in front and back seat.

2008 Honda CR-V LX-4WD

With 74000 miles, this CR-V continues to serve me reliable. Other than regular maintenance I have had few repairs done to this point. I continue to get good performance and great gas mileage. I know it will be time for an upgrade soon, but it will be hard letting go of my CR-V.

First SUV - purchased used.

Love that it sits up high. Gets reasonable gas mileage, has good pick-up-and-go, and turns easily. Interior design rated lower as interior has beige cloth seats that stain easily - even with water. Would also prefer A/C vents in center console to be lower for better coverage. I like that I can lower the rear seats to carry everything from table and chairs to my bike.

Been a great car

Engine at times feels a little wimpy (4 cylinder) but overall I really like this vehicle. Gets decent gas mileage and love the space. I always amaze myself with how much I can fit in there. I installed a tow hitch for stuff it won't fit and it pulls it just dandy. Honda also already had holes predrilled and cable run for brake light hookup. Made it much easier! Won't pull much but good for hauling away yard junk or picking up Washer/Dryer.

Most Reliable Car I've Ever Owned!

Best vehicle that we've ever purchased. Reliable, family friendly, great cargo space. We did have a few issues with some recalls but Honda has had excellent customer service! Would purchase again and would DEFINITELY recommend to friends and family!

Really Love It!!!

I've only had this vehicle for 2 weeks. However, in that 2 weeks I moved across country with it. It was an awesome road trip vehicle. I was able to pack everything I needed and some more, and still plenty of room up front. My only complaint so far is the arm rest fabric irritates my skin, but I fixed that easy with a trip to the fabric store. I traded my 2001 Grand Cherokee for this and I'm still very happy with my decision. Also that cross country move last year cost me $200 with my Jeep...$85 in gas with the CR-V this year!!! And gas prices are about the same.
