2018 Accord with 2.0T motor. It's terrific...I don't miss my Mercedes at all except the V8 rumble

We looked at the CR-V. My wife took an instant dislike and I agree. Seems clunky and not powerful with the 1.5 L engine and CVT.
Rented a RAV4: also disappointed.
The one small CUV I really liked driving was the Mazda CX-5; however I still prefer driving a sedan so bought the Accord 2.0.

Did you have it in "Eco" mode? With that enabled the engine seems sluggish I agree. With that turned off mine has plenty of pep... you won't win a drag race but it has pretty good pickup IMO.

I'd drive the Passport and the Ridgeline with the SOHC V6. Honda is dealing currently.


What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone
