Nice , I just bought a 2014 Dodge Avenger...I know I know, Dodge sucks n yea yea yea...but it rides really smooth n the engine is strong with smooth shifting so I can't complain yet, but the main reason I bought it is cause it doesn't look like every other car on the road they all look the same to me, like a jelly bean

I had a magnum and eventually hated the thing it was just so poorly made everything on it was plastic.. But it did get me and my quad to Florida twice so I gotta give it that. Was never a fan of how boxy dodge got after that.. They just got back to sleek lines I think the new durangos are pretty bad ass

Are you going to rally race the avenger? They... Tried it haha

Just bought my first honda it's a 2010 crv paid 8.000 with 21,000 miles. Looks like new. The girls been looking for a better mpg vehicle. Not a lot of power but perfect for her.
That and the Subaru Forester used to trade the title of JD Power & Associates 'most reliable car sold in America' back and forth.

Take good care of it and she'll never fail you. You can only hope your girl does the same!

I my wife has a early second gen CRV. It has what seem like some serous problems but they haven't gotten much worse in the last 20K-40K. I want to get rid of this one, but I'd be happy with a different CRV, even the same year and mileage.
I will say, it's a remarkably unremarkable vehicle. Handling: not bad but not good Acceleration: what you need but no fun, Shit you can jam in it space: pretty good, but not spectacular, a minivan is way better AWD: it's not a Subaru, but it's boring driving in the snow (maybe good?) Look: invisible, wife drove around with an expired registration and a tail light out for 3 months, inspection guy did me a solid and told me to go fix those things and come back.

So yeah, meh car, but meh to the max of meh which makes it pretty alright.

I think your's is too new for the tire on the back, but I got rear ended in it, other guy's accord was messed up, the CRV i wish was totalled, no problems. The back door feels a little different, but works fine.

There are a couple what I would call "design flaws" but overall it feels solid I can see it makin 150-200kmiles no problem (knock on wood)
