Green Tea V

Hello all! I purchased my 2008 CRV EX AWD a few weeks ago, and I love it. It's the green tea color. My previous car was a 1997 Ford Escort (5spd manual). That car was a pain to drive in traffic with the constant shifting, and it was just uncomfortable to drive period. My new CRV is very comfortable with plenty of space.
When shopping for a new car, I definetly wanted something with AWD/4WD because of the snow we sometimes get here in Maryland. I also wanted something with plenty of cargo space as my fiancee and I go camping quite often, and we take a lot of road trips.
I test drove a few other cars/suvs including a 2008 Ford Exploer, a 2008 Subaru WRX, a 2008 Nissan Xterra, and a 2008 Jeep Wrangler, and a 2006 BMW X3. I also considered a 2006 Nissan 350Z and a 2008 Honda Civic Si. :) Although the CRV is the least powerful of the bunch, it was the car I felt the most comfortable in. Add Honda's reliability and resale value, and the decision was easy. Out of all of the cars I test drove, the CRV was the one that I could see myself driving everyday comfortably.
