Lets starts a comparison between the Rogue, CRV & Rav4.
 
I have not including the Santa Fe even though it"s the same price range, cause it's bigger & has a V6.
 
I beleve the Rogue's main competiton is the CRV & Rav4.
 
What is your opinion ??

Nissan Rogue looks quite good, but it lacks in some features that are standard in both the CRV and RAV4.
 
Storage: The rear seats are fixed and can only be folded down for cargo - they do not recline and cannot be moved for more legroom. The CRV actually double folds the rear seats and provides for lot more storage. The RAV4 has extra storage since they have the spare wheel on the outside.
 
Pickup: Rouge give RAV4 a run for the money. CRV is probably a little bit sluggish of the two.
 
RAV4 is priced higher than Rouge and CRV.

The Rogue is very interesting, primarily in how stale it makes the Murano look.
 
I suspect 2nd row seating to be really cramped, and it's a shame that there isn't at least an incline option for those seats.
 
The heated seats, bluetooth, ipod jack, paddle shifters and keyless entry seriously bump up the amount of kit people should expect in sub $30K SUVs.
 
I never buy the first run of a new car, preferring to give it at least a year for the recalls/bugs to be worked out, but Nissan has been very reliable in the last few years.
 
It would be nice if they offered a compact V6 option, power passenger seat and telescoping steering wheel.
 
On the other hand, the Rogue "loaded" is $28K. The Acura MDX we are looking at is $10K more.

I'm 6ft 1in and I fit comfortably in the back seat of the Rogue. It isn't cramped at all. I wasn't very hesitant about purchasing one. It has the Altima engine and transmission which have a good track record.

I felt comfortable buying one as well. The Rogue definetly beats out the CRV on many levels, especially power. I was originally looking for a car as of March this year, and test drove the CRV. I was really dissapointed and decided it would be worth the wait for another 6 months to get the Nissan - and I am not sorry I waited.

Rogue SL w/Prem Pkg VERSUS CRV-EX by cmosman

I live in Texas and own two CRVs. I have just been to two Nissan dealers and three Honda CRV dealers to compare the CRV-EX and Rogue SL with Prem. Pkg. The deals came within $14.00 before I managed to eventually get the CRV less than MSRP.
 
No one will sell the Rogue less than MSRP. The CRV can be had for as much as $500 dollars under MSRP (lots of work)and it includes a moon roof. The Rogue charge is $800 more for the moon roof. The Rogue has more torque when accelerating because of the CVT transmission, a nice Bose radio, great console. I didn't like the too small digital readout on the dash, smaller cargo space, small back window, non-telescopic steering wheel and back seats that didn't adjust. The Rogue's reliability and trade-in value are yet to be determined. I eventually choose the 2008 CRV because of the value (less money). The dealer even through in the $500.00 PRO package for free. Moon roof was included, not extra. The CRV has great trade-in value and exceptional reliability,as well as, lots of small features the Rogue doesn't have.
 
The Rogue does have great style and I know it will appeal to many people. I would loved to have borrowed the Rogue for a couple of days to really evaluate it properly. I plan to revisit the Rogue in two or three years to consider it again.

Congrats on the new ride. We all have our thoughts on our new rides. I bought a Rogue insted of a CRV because IMO the Rougue has more power, is quieter,the Rogue glove compartment and double layer console are better, the rear cargo pop up in the trunk of the Rogue stablizes cargo very well,the CRV EX radio was terrible compared to the Bose, the EXL with XM was decent and for my uses the roll up style back seats of the CRV would prevent placing my road bicycle in the cargo are with both wheels on (less length). Can't disagree about the telescoping steering wheel, I think the rear windows are about equal. Reliability wise the componets in the Rogue are pretty well proven the motor and CVT have been in service for years... time will tell in the end about reliability and the resale value...Oh and by the way my 02 CRV tranny had issues at 40k nothing is certain in any machine. All this being said they are both outstanding vehicles in there class and I don't think either of us will be dissappointed.

I too looked at the CRV, Outlander, and Mazda 6. I also ride a road bike and I didn't want to take off the wheel. The CRV wouldn't even fit my bike with the wheel off. I ended up buying the Mazda 6 wagon. I think any of the 6's would fit my bike w/o wheel off but I opted for the wagon. So far so good
 
Are you saying that the Rogue will fit the entire road bike wheels and all??
