  • CRV or Sport trak? DUH! - 2004 Honda CR-V
    By -

    My wife and I were on our way to purchase an Explorer Sport Trak, even after having done research on these two vehicles... my wife liked the Sport Trak. Well, we stopped by the Honda dealer and drove the CRV on the way to the Ford dealer... OOPS! We loved the drive, comfort, and power of the CRV. We then ventured to the Ford dealer and were amazed at how cheap the Trak felt... We are now loving the CRV and it moves like no four-banger Ive driven

    I have previously owned a lot of Cadillacs and recently a RAV-4. I was looking to buy a new RAV-4 when my wife suggested the Honda CR-V. We bought one and it is almost the "perfect" vehicle. Small but not too small. Plenty of pep for city driving and rolls along the freeways well. They have thought of almost everything in the way of conveniences.

    I was looking for a SUV that was small enough to replace my Forrester,yet had more pick up without going to a turbo. A SUV that was reliable,good looking,economical with a good amount of room. Took the CRV out for a ride after taking the Pilot out and made the choice,one CRV please,my wife drives it so she had to like it and she does so that was all that mattered

  • Good practical transportation - 2004 Honda CR-V

    Its a great car, and a fantastic redesign over the 1999 I used to have, for roughly the same price. The front seats werent made for tall people unfortunately (Im only 510" and could use another inch or so of leg room). Only gets 23-24mpg, but for an SUV thats not too bad. Overall Im very happy with it.

  • Second CRV and loving it! - 2004 Honda CR-V
    By -

    We just traded in our 98 CRV for a new one last weekend. It was hard parting with the 98, but it was close to 100,000 miles so it was time. We looked at the Jeep Liberty and the Toyota RAV-4 but still came back to the Honda. I have always been a "Honda person" and it scares me to purchase anything thats not a Honda. Every Honda Ive had has been reliable. I love the CRV. Its just the right size for my small family and its fun to drive. The only difference this time is we traded a blue one in for a red one. I cant say enough good things about my Honda CRV.

  • The Best SUV for your $ - 2004 Honda CR-V

    I bought another Honda CRV only because it reliable and I gave my old CRV to future wife. My old CRV have 182,000 miles on it and never gave me any trouble. When I bought this car the dealer ask me if I wanted to take it for a test drive. I simple told him "NO". He look at me like I am crazy. I told him that my old car was driving like a charm. I felt there was need to test drive it because it reliable and dependable. I got my money worth on my 1999 CRV and I am expecting it to drive to 300,000. I am hoping the quality doesnt slip with my new Honda CRV compare to my 1999 Honda CRV since it was made in Japan. The only thing I am not crazy about is the emergency brake

  • quality & comfort - 2004 Honda CR-V
    By -

    This CR-V is my first Honda. After owning chevys, Mazda, and Toyota, these vehicles dont have near the quality that is put into this vehicle. The ride is sooo comfortable its unreal. My only drawback with ALL cars today is the gas mileage. With todays gas prices you would think that auto makers would get on the ball and make them ALL more efficient. Still, I get about 24 mpg as i do alot of highway driving. The inside is very roomy with everything displayed well where i dont have to do any reaching. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for an suv that is classy, comfortable and well affordable.

    Have been extremely impressed with the vehicles performance, handling, braking and meticulous assembly quality. Handles like a car. Great view out. Great ergonomics and good visibility to the rear.

  • 2004 HONDA CRV LX - 2004 Honda CR-V

    THIS IS THE FIFTH HONDA MY FAMILY HAS OWNED AND OVERALL THIS IS A PRETTY NICE ONE. A FEW MINOR THINGS I DONT LIKE BUT MY WIFE SWEARS SHE WILL DRIVE IT FOREVER.

  • A fun, zippy ride.... - 2004 Honda CR-V
    By -

    Purchased this car for around town driving for the family, and am very pleased with not only the way it handles and its ability to fit into tight spots, but also its fuel economy as well as its nimble acceleration.The visibility is especially good on all sides, owing to large windows and windshield. Sitting up higher than regular cars also provides a better sight line. The interior design makes for comfortable driving, but I would not plan a long drive (6 hours +) in this car. All in all, a good family car with room for extra gear in both the back and on the optional roof rack
