2012 Honda CR-V: an upscale, everyday SUV (first take)

22.05.12

With 29 models in the crossover divide, the competition between vehicles is fierce. To make the 2012 Honda CRV stand out from the crowd, Honda has exacting its best-selling SUV and dubbed it the "Super CR-V." But does the fourth generation of the crossover live up to its new moniker?

When you're selling a match up hundred thousand units of a crossover, it's a tough job trying to be all things to all people. Honda built an improved reading of a best-selling vehicle that will impress a broad range of consumers, but it doesn't mess with its tried-and reliable formula.

What makes the 2012 model "super" is its ability to wear a lot of hats. The CR-V provides the expertise of a car and the functionality of a minivan in the SUV packaging that is popular with buyers these days, says Honda. The result is a utilitarian, but suave, compact SUV with style and versatility that will make the CR-V a good option for buyers looking for jack-of-all trades mechanism.

How should I vacuum my car? Buy a hand held or go to a gas station? I live in Rockville, MD?

If you say get a hand held---which one?! I don't need to spend more than $30. My friend says that gas stations usually have a vacuum but not sure how much it is or how effective.....

I have looked at some moonless and decker, "the

which ever you favour. Most gas stations will charge 75cents or 50cents. They do suck dirt really good though. but me i use my house one. Its more suitable for me then going out just to vacuum my car every time grass gets on the mats

what is good quality brand name, hand held vacuum cleaner to clean up car? Having strong suction.?

12V or rechargable the less ill choice? 120VAC not an option here.

I have a dyson DC 17 and that soft touch will suck the chrome right off a 2" ball hitch. They have a handheld called the root 6. They are more costly but for the power and the fact that you NEVER EVER have to mess with any filters I say the money
