I'm curious why you're not considering the gas powered CR-V?


I have been a Honda person for years, with four Honda motorcycles, my
first Accord that ran for 396,000 miles before it was totalled in a
wreck and my current Accord that has 201,000 miles on it and remains a
great car. If Honda made sailplanes, I would probably be lusting
after one all the time.


Do let me know when you take delivery of your Honda business jet. I'd
love a ride in one :-).

I love hondas as well, have owned several of their cars and
motorcycles. I was looking at getting a honda element as a friend said
that his towed very well. After driving Jim Staniforth's subaru
outback from ely to eureka and back, up and down some big mountains,
to retrieve him and an LS-6 in a cobra, decided to try a subaru
forester.

I'm very happy with the car after a year, I was worried that the
little four cylinder engine wouldn't have enough power but it hasn't
been an issue. The car tows the LS-6 and now an ASH-26 up and down the
mountains out west with no problems. I'm very happy with this car,
it's easy to drive, park, and doesn't use too much fuel. As nice as it
was, I don't miss my full size chevy pickup.
