2017 equinox or new 2017 CRV

I am looking to maybe downgrade my car to a smaller SUV but still AWD.

Those are the 2 cars that I am going to look into. Trunk space or ease to fold seats for a bigger trunk is important.

I would love some feedback if you have test driven the recent models. TIA

I'm not familiar with the Equinox but the CRV is an awesome small SUV. Great cargo space and roomy interior too. The lease on 2014 is up in May and I'm probably getting another.

I had a 2007 CRV. It was my first SUV. I really liked it. Then I went bigger. Not sure how I feel about the new 2017 redesign.

I leased the 2017 equinox AWD in September and so far I love it. It is my first SUV so I can't compare it to others. It does have a lot of cargo space, but I wish there was more space in between my kids' two car seats. It's hard to fit an extra person back there. Overall though I am happy with it.

Thanks. My kid is now just in a booster seat only. He is older.

I think the new cr-v looks nice. Not a big chevy fan.

I have the new Equinox and I love it. My MIL has a CRV and I have a lot more space than she does.

What would be your pros and your cons? I like reviews from everyday drivers who use the car in real life applications. Stores, kids in and out, space, garden center trips, snow, rain, use of the radio, etc....

I have 2 infant seats and I can easily get them in and out. I also have a small dog that travels with us pretty much everywhere. She uses her bed as a seat in the car and her bed fits between the 2 car seats no problem. We have a civic as well but I find the CRV easier. I drive from port Jeff to plainview for work (currently on maternity leave) and I LOVE the ride. I love the backup camera and land change camera. My phone hooks right up with the car and automatically opens pandora. (I have the mid level 2015 so it has the touch screen in the dashboard) I have driven in the snow and rain no problem.
The CRV is easy to park and I don't have any blind spots. I know they changed the design for 2017 but with my 2015 I can freely see around me.
As in my previous post I have a double stroller and still can grocery shop with plenty of space

I had the Equinox for 3 years. Loved it. We needed a third row so decided on the Traverse this time, but we were very happy with the Equinox.
