Would love a crossover SUV but have driven the Nissan Murano (love everything but the MPG and price), Honda CR-V, Toyota Rav 4 -

hated the Toyota - Liked the CR-V, but hated the price on the 12 model - lots of money for a small, little feller.

Drove the Toyota Camry - it could do but she's not thrilled about it.

Drove the Honda Accord - liked everything except the cabin noise - drove two of them, they are loud!

We have two large SUV's and a Supercrew F150 - are our car expectations out of line? 30 MPG - great ride - 26-28K tops on cost..

Educated opinions? Heck even uneducated ones are welcome!!


Your correct about the Honda Accord road noise. We're on our second one, got a 2001, that the daughter drives at college and wife drives the 2010. Other than the road noise, just about bullet proof. By-the-way, paid 19K for the 2010 last Dec., with 21K miles on it.
