Pearl the pretty GirlSource: MSN Autos
...Pros: This is the MDX half little sister. This car is a camper vehicle and alittle bit more realistic than the Element, but I have never even ridden in th Element. |

HONDAs HUMMERSource: MSN Autos...I have a dog so I usually remove one rear seat or fold it up and let my dog have access to the other seat and the cargo area behind it. The uncarpeted floor is great, easy to keep clean and I just put in a dog bed for my pet to lay on when needed. Like others have said in many reviews, having 4 seats that fully recline is a great feature when traveling or camping. I haven't seen another SUV so adaptible. Cons: I can't say that I really have any dislikes...maybe more power or a hybrid down the road. Having a more durable material on the doors would be helpful. My dog tends to scratch the... |

My test drive of the CR-VSource: MSN Autos...needs a hatch-back instead of swing-gate, spare tire mounted to rear door, very uncomfortable and hard rear head rests. Overall: Test drive notes: the CR-V continues to be one of my moderatly favorite small SUVs. I have driven the 03, 04, and now 05. The ride on roads less than smooth produce vibrations throughout the cab and steering wheel. I think people buy the CR-V simply for the AWD and Honda quality. The 160 hp engine is adequate, but needs more power for uphill driving. I recommend the Honda Element. Buy the Element and save approx. $1000, but get the same engine as the CR-V. Plus I... |

My Little BeastieSource: MSN Autos
...Pros: It is functional, fishing/hauling/moving are less of a hassle. |

Versatile and Fun!Source: MSN Autos...Cons: One complaint would have to be the fact that it is difficult to clean the floor since if you use water, it pools into the crevices where the seat ends and if you use a broom to sweep it out, the dirt moves into the crevices as well; and those are difficult to clean out. I would also like to see it come with rain deflectors for the front 2 windows (I bought my own), and a cargo net for the back. Also, it takes FOREVER for people to figure out how to open the back passenger door! Whenever anyone new rides back there, I have to get out and show them how to do it. Overall: Excellent buy for... |
