| I am really getting hammered buying gas lately. Getting around 25MPG consistantly on my 2008 EX-L, 80% highway. Otherwise love the car, but if they come out with a hybrid CRV, I am going to check it out. Spending over 100. a week on gas, my car alone. Don't even want to talk about my wife's Pilot! | |

Replying to: snagy1 (Jun 04, 2008 3:53 am) I am not complaining, thought that what this site was for, to discuss this vehicle. Everyone knows going slower gets better mileage. Car does not need a scan gage, computer tells you what your getting as you drive. |

I live in an area with no snow, but the 4wd should provide additional safety on rainy days. Two friends told me to get the 4wd drive without a doubt because that is the reason for getting a crossover...to use your car's FULL potential. In addition, think of the resale value. If you plan to keep this car for more then 5 + years, get a vehicle that will keep you happy for a long time.

| I purchased a 2004 EXL in Feb/08 expecting it to get MUCH better fuel economy than our '03 Pilot EXL - but that has not been the case. In the winter (Ontario) my CRV was using nearly 17 litres/100km. Now in warm weather with no a/c running, I gave a test to both vehicles for a week driving to/from work which is about 8 minutes from home. Results? CRV used 12 litres/100km, Pilot used 13 litres/100 kms. Any thoughts? We've had it checked out and nothing is "wrong" - but according to Honda stat's - it is using way too much gas. Both vehicles are automatic and we bought the CRV to save money on gas by not driving the Pilot as much but at this rate, we should be both driving Pilots! Help??!! | |
