2011 Honda CRV Ex

LOVE IT!



Do you think your car is too small for two children under five??

The dealer said that the CRV is the same size as the accord. I did not think that was so, but that is what they said.




YES!
It is ridiculously small.
I went from the Accord (before the remodel) to the CrV and the old Accord was BIGGER...

Honestly- I think the Accord might actually BE bigger- and the accord you can get in a 6 cyl- the crv is only a 4 and it rides like a roller skate!

I have two kids- one 4 one 10 months and it was getting to the point where I was putting groceries in the front seat b/c there was no room for them in the back!

I would go for the pilot or the Odyssey.. I turned in my lease 2 years early (they bought it out to sell used) and go the Odyssey and am sooo happy w/ it.




Thank you for your response. I was think of the Pilot, the Subaru Tribeca and the Mazda CX9. I have always went with the Honda but I really am liking the Subaru. I wonder if anyone has pros and cons for these cars?

I don't think it would "too" small. I suggest you go look at it. You will have plenty of room for 2 carseats. The trunk is a nice size but with a double stroller, groceries, dogs, etc... yes, it's not the biggest SUV. Depends on what you are looking for and what you intend to do with the car.

If you plan on travelling with road trips and 2 kids and luggage and a stroller. Yes, it will be too small.

I'm not surprised to hear that. I don't have a Honda but- I have a sedan and the lease is about to end. I inquired with the same company about the smaller of their two suvs and it turns out it is built on the same frame as my current sedan, so while it is shaped differently up top- obviously w/ more room- it is not reaaallly usable/ functional space. I ended up going with the next one up.
