Replying to: xostnot (Mar 07, 2007 9:02 pm) I agree entirely that very damn few people buying cuv's need a low range.   I think you just about summed it up right. I do like GV though. Its a nice truck but doesnt work well for everyone. For me, its drawbacks include short cargo space, thirsty v6 and no third row kids seat option.

Replying to: growwise (Mar 08, 2007 7:20 pm) Good point. The volume of the cargo area has turned out fine for us, but the length is a problem. A common thing like skis don't go in properly. Sleep in it? Dream on. It should have had any two of: fold-flat front passenger seat, removable back seats, or opening tailgate glass. But then, it's evolved from a much smaller vehicle, and it's cheaper than a Lexus.   I still don't think the engine is inefficient. Real world mileage is indistinguishable from other cuv's, and the GV has the handicaps I mentioned earlier. I don't list the engine as one of those handicaps.   Overall, the Outlander (or Santa Fe, or 3rd row Rav4) sound like they much better meet your needs.

GV best all around small SUV - Price and standard options. Compared and test drove all of them for seven months. Purchased the GV luxury with all the toppings including anchovies for 8k less than a CRV or RAV-4. I never been more happy with the choice.
