Tweets on Cars: Home in the 2010...
Home in the 2010 Honda CR-V. It sports 10 additional horsepower this year people, so that V6 RAV4 better... Ah, the RAV will still stomp it.

And how does it do compared to the Equinox??
Takeup of the V6 in the Rav4 is less than 20%, so for most normal people they're pretty comparable except the CRV has a 5speed auto vs the 4 speed in the Rav. I sat in a new CRV yesterday. Seemed wide and pretty comfortable.
Big Al, I haven't had any seat time in the Equinox, but my gut is that they'll both treat you well until the exact moment you trade it in and get a number from your salesguy.
Well, it depends what you mean by "stomp it". The V6 would outrun it, for sure. But on the rest of the package, overall, I don't see the RAV4 stomping the CRV. Don't think you can go wrong with either one.
Well then for someone like me, I wouldn't worry too much. I keep cars until the wheels fall off... (currently going on 7 years with my truck and 5 years with the car)
I can't get past the CR-V's weird exterior styling......
Sit in the back seat for more than 30 min and you'll be wishing for a Rav4. Hard as a rock.
