Used Honda CR-V for Sale in Irvine, CA

The CRV ground clearance has allowed us to climb through snow drifts, and scale the occasional curb. The fold down rear seats allowed me to move two bales of alfalfa (fortunately, wrapped in a tarp). The peppy little engine gets us up trails and around town, while still pulling off 24 mpg. One aspect I absolutely love about this little ride, when one of the front ball joints was going bad I opted to replace them all. Since it’s mostly a Civic underneath, I was able to swap everything with “race” rated parts for 1/3 the price of Honda components. Still going strong 5 years on and this little truck has been off the road and through the snow so many times.

Normally, the arrival of a Special Edition in one of Honda’s product lineups signals an imminent redesign. Given that the 2016 CR-V’s engineering and design date to the 2012 model year, it is a good bet that a new 2017 CR-V is in the works. You don’t need to wait. Go ahead and get a 2016, because this is a terrific compact crossover SUV. In particular, the new CR-V Special Edition is an absolute bargain, a simple, visually appealing, practical crossover that will likely last forever if you treat it right. Choosing this version of the CR-V represents a smart financial decision, too. Very comfortable ride. After 550 miles mostly in town and country roads I am average 30.1. That is with the AC on. I highly recommend this Honda. Comfort, performance, exterior styling, interior design, value for the money, reliability.
