SUV cars

I absolutely love SUV's! I would drive a Hummer if I could afford the Gas. I don't know, there is just something about having all that space. I want to be able to buy a big table and bring it home. Instead I have to pay $40 to have it delivered.

If you have kids a SUV would be such a cooler vehicle than a minivan. I would hate to drive a minivan. The gas on an SUV would be worth it to me, in order to avoid driving a minivan!

Hei there, you again,
sell off your mazda, get your SUV then lol

personally, my family car is a Honda CRV, might not be the best selling car in your country, but here, it's not too bad, anyway...

it really is great when you have an SUV to cater for the family,
lots of space as mentioned, and on the road, the "handling control" is superb, too!

Thumbs up for SUVs!

I do have a Honda CRV and I personally would not recommend that SUV to anyone ! It is suppost to have a 4 wheel drive, but last winter we didn't see any of this. We could not get ourself out of our driveway (with just a few inches of snow). I think this is just a SUV for areas where you don't get snow and where you don't go off roading ! I would never ever buy one of them again new or used ! I would say to anyone buy a reliable SUV that you can count on for a long time and not a Honda CRV !

I have a Honda CRV too!
And it rocks!

Not sure how it'll perform on snow surface though, I think it's the snow, not the car, perhaps the tyre, still, not the car,

It's a great family car I'd say, wonder why you are so against it hehheheheh

Well I am against it because since we have it we just have problems with it. Here are some examples:

- our driveway is made out of sand and if it rains it gets muddy, well with every car we had we were able to get up the driveway without problems, but with the Honda (new tires !) we get stuck all the time. It wont make it up the driveway and the tires don't turn at all even though it is 4x4 ! We have never had this with any other car we had.

- in the winter we got of the road and had to be pulled out because our 4x4 would not turn on. The king cap that pulled us out couldn't believe we have 4x4 and he was laughing at us because every other 4x4 could have made it out by themself since just the right set of tires were stuck in snow ! We were stuck there for 4 hours !

- the car doesn't start when you don't drive it every day. Whenever we use our other car and leave the honda standing for 2 or 3 day it wont start. It always takes some time until it will start and than we have to wait for about 15 minutes before we can go. Otherway when we just pull out after starting the car it will go off on the street and we are blocking the whole street again !

These are just 3 examples. i can give you a lot more more. If you have to rely on a car and need it in summer as also in winter the Honda is nothing for you, don't even think of going offroading with it ! This must be a SUV for the city and for somewhere were you don't get snow ! This was the first and only Honda CRV we ever going to buy ! I wouldn't even call this a SUV.

Instead of buying a Honda I would rather buy a Mercedes G-Class or Toyota Landcruiser. Because I need a reliable SUV ! No matter what season, on or off road it has to work.
