Good, Solid Car - 2008 Honda CR-V
By Rob - April 29 - 11:13 amPurchased the car in mid June. 2,185 miles so far. Driven in town gets 20-21 mpg, during a long highway trip 31-32 mpg, doing 65 mph w/cruise on. Car is well-built inside, except for the door handles which feel a bit cheap. Leather seats are comfortable. Very spacious and great visibility all around. There is just a bit of wind noise at 65 mph, which i was looking for after reading the reviews, but its really not that much. Inside ergonomics are great. Handles great, not stiff. A bit under powered if youre a more aggressive driver, but its plenty quick for highway passing. Very convenient with storage space and inside compartments. Outside looks great. Thats just a personal opinion.

CRV - 2008 Honda CR-V
By rbsomm - November 20 - 11:30 amI traded in my 06 civic for the 08 CR-V. I am not thrilled with the city gas mileage. Highway is averaging around 28. I thought I would get around 30 overall! It does not have any get up and go like my civic had. The arm rests are too short and uncomfortable. There is not enough storage space that is useful, no place to put CD,s. The seats are kinda hard and not comfortable on the back. My daughter had rhinestones on her jeans and it left some snags in the seat material. That made me very upset. I have to admit I like the room in it, the overall style and it does ride well. It is fun to drive, just not the most comfortable. I wish they would have offered the Navi system in LX

2008 Honda CR-V LX 2WD - 2008 Honda CR-V
By Cinglemom - February 22 - 2:20 pmIve had this CR-V for 3 months now. I have not had one disappointing moment. It drive just like a car. I dont have problems passing other cars or trucks. Ive been to NY and it gave me 28 miles to the gallon. Around the city I get 23 miles but the combo is 21/22. I totally love this car. This should have been the first car I purchase instead I went in the opposite direction and purchased a 2007 Dodge Caliber (one of the worst cars on the road).

By hesaid - March 26 - 3:30 pmMy wife loves her new CR-V. We did some comparison shopping and the CR-V is best choice out there for this size SUV.
