Replying to: kyfdx (Jun 11, 2007 11:10 am) I just purchased a used 2005 2WD LX, 13,000miles sold by its first owner, for $15,600. Owner replaced the steel wheels with the EX Alum wheels and gave for free the original steel wheels (+ OEM tires) to me. Ordered a cargo cover on line and professionally tinted the rear windows, all for an extra $350...and my CRV looks like an EX ( W/O sunroof). You could get a much lower price if shopping around for a 2005-06 CRV sold by owner. Because this SUV is HOT  $3+/gal, dealers usually charge $1800-$2500 more + TAXES+ doc fees. In my area ( S-E Michigan) for 1-2 years old used CRV's , dealers are asking close to brand new price. Don't expect, though, the soft and quiet ride of a minivan. CRV has a jolty, stiffy and noisy ride compared to minivans. Test drive one before deciding. A Toyota Rav4 or 4cyl Highlander would aleviate this inconvenient, IMO

Replying to: dan bitman (Jun 22, 2007 7:01 am) From what research have shown, air bags actually kill babies on impact. Babies have lower mass that adults, and the explosive black powder in the air bag is designed to slow down an adult from hiting the pillars, or what not, not a light weight baby.

Replying to: stevedebi (Jun 22, 2007 10:41 am) FYI: not all 2006 EX CRV's are 4WD. There are some 2WD too. This in the context that 2005 and 2006 CRV's are similar.

Replying to: dan bitman (Jun 22, 2007 6:10 pm) Ah? I didn't realize that the 2006 came with FWD EX. I thought that came in with the 2007 model. Thanks for the update!

Replying to: blueiedgod (Jun 22, 2007 10:41 am) ...which is why it is illegal to have kids in the front seat in most states. The Federal government allows one to disable the front airbags if the family has so many children that one of them HAS to ride up front. |

Replying to: mnf (Jun 25, 2007 8:12 pm) EBD was standard equipment on my 2003 CR-V EX, along with Anti-lock brakes.
