10.5 years is an ETERNITY... I did my cosmetic upgrades after one year of ownership. Pennsylvania gas tax just went up 8 cents, beginning of the year. Paging BOBO... BOBO, please come to the front desk and turn in your summation of 2016. BOBO???

Well then, what is the solution? I have 2500 miles of warranty left.

Hey at least they don't charge for it like GM did... $395. They don't even charge for pearl white.

Look at one in person. The broad shoulders, the tough face, the roomy, attractive interior, the 29 overall average MPG rating (that matches the smaller HR-V on the same lot). This is a very well done vehicle, engineered by a company that was a pioneer in the segment, and they understand the importance of it.

Flash light!

Sort of shocking how much cargo room Honda can extract from a sensibly sized vehicle... Fit, HR-V and CR-V are all cavernous v. the competition.

Yeah if it is 2.4L only it will be kind of disappointing. I understand the Compass might be roomier than the Cherokee in some important key areas. It would be good if we got more info on the Compass, pronto. Also... green has disappeared from the color choices on a lot of Jeep models. Any year one cannot buy a green Jeep is a bad year. I want my next vehicle to be blue or green. Looking back, I have gray now, before that black, then green, then blue, then black, then blue, then green, then blueish gray, then green...

But then again this can be purchased for the same price, and it's a brand new design with more room inside, better looks and better gas mileage... and it has 8.2 inches ground clearance v. the vaunted Subaru's 8.7.

So it's Juke's less... flamboyant brother. I was looking at Rogues and thinking they're noticeably bigger than they used to be, so the Cashcow should find a definite niche.

Yup, I used to stick these up every munt and they used to be well commented. I miss them, even without photos for every comment.

Well, one branch of ocn's famiry is going totarry Subaru... my aunt traded her trusty '97 Blazer on a '14 Forester. A year later, she traded it on another one, a '15. Her daughter (my cousin) picked up her own Forester today, a 2017 2.5i Premium in dark gray, trading in her 2010 Liberty after 17 years of Jeep ownership between a Cherokee, first and second gen Liberties. She took me for a ride and I was very pleased with the operation of the vehicle. The CVT in that thing is barely noticeable, and it runs very quietly (the '17 has thicker windshield and side glass, among other acoustic tweaks). Goes to show that my experience with CVT in my Patriot and my mother's Cube and Versa was not all-encompassing on this type of transmission. So now I want to test one out for myself (X-Mode, baby!) I plan on ignoring the muffdiving tips in section 4 of the owner's manual though. Bleh.

They need a CUV based on the Accent, and possibly another based on the Elantra hatch.

HA!

Local dealer has one of those golden Dunes. Hmmm...

And what, pray tell, do you have against Truck Nuts? People who wait until you are right there before they pull out in front of you from a side road... then turn off almost immediately. With no signal until they are already in the turn. People who drive 5-10 under the limit on a clear, sunshiny, dry day... spearheading a line of traffic 3 miles long. Studies have shown this is more dangerous than ppl driving 5-10 over the limit unfettered, because it pisses ppl off and makes them take risks to pass the slow asses.

Current Tucson seems giant. Good looking but has engineering issues. Transmission with turbo engine has weird behaviour. I think they have a quasi-CUV version of the new Elantra GT overseas. Still not sold on Hyundai quality.

These a-holes should have their buyback offers rescinded immediately.

I am very interested in knowing the manual transmission take rate in the Tacoma and Frontier, both of which offer a stick in more than just the BASE, 2WD models.

WELL excuuuuuse me, Mr. Baller! Good luck in the search.
