I drove one a while back. Not particularly sporty but a nice, practical vehicle for the price. -juice |

I consider our Pilot the family station wagon, same goes for all the rest from Foresters to Freestyles. Only the Truck base vehicles are SUV's, except for the specialty vehicles like Range Rovers with their unibody, but reinforced components.

Replying to: li_sailor (Jun 21, 2005 5:58 pm) So after going thru my 04 EXL PIlot, I said to myself , what an uncanny resemblance, its my Daddy's station wagon, and I bought it because it reminded me so much of that Station Wagon I wanted as kid, because it had seating for 8. |

That's basically the replacement. There was actually the minivan inbetween, but it went from wagon to minivan to SUV for the family vehicle of choice. So, what's next? Crossovers? -juice

2007 Honda CR-V Iam in the market for a 2007 CR-V EX-L With Navi. Based on my research during the last few days, Understood that CR-V is going MSRP (The Max i could come up with is MSRP - $500) and Still Wait for a few weeks to actually get the car delivered. Here are my questions.. (1). Do any of the NEW CR-V Owners feel that the low end torque is little less?? (I felt it when i was test driving yesterday -- Propably because its a 4 Cyl Fuel Efficient SUV and we never owned a SUV before). (2). I also felt that the engine noise was little more particularly when the CR-V starts accelarating? Are (1) and (2) -- something that is expected from a Fuel Eff 4 Cyl SUV?? VW Passat Wagon 2.0T -- After my initial impression with CR-V (Particularly MSRP on the CR-V).. Iam starting to think towards 07 VW Passat Wagon 2.0T with Package # 2 and NAVI My driving impressions were good on this, However i might loose some space for the rear seats compared to CR-V Liked the EPA Mileage and Truck Space. With all the gadgets this is just $2k over the CR-V (I was offered below invoice). However iam concerned about the reliability of VW and Any feedback on the VW NAVI(Could not see one yesterday on the dealers lot, Does it do Voice Recognition?) Comments are welcome and Thanks in Advance..

Replying to: pro5moh (Feb 20, 2007 11:45 am) Advantages? Better handling, probably less noise. Honda's NAV wins all kinds of awards, so I bet it's much easier to use. No experience with VW, but I took a road trip with a buddy in his S4 convertible (sweet!) and the thing I liked least about it was the NAV. Took him a good 15 minutes once to find a single address, which you enter key by key (no touch screen). Try before you buy, that's all. -juice |
