What is a hybrid car

Jeep Liberty 2009

Jeep Liberty Sport

It handles great on the road and it’s so fun. Looks sharp, sits high, can see road well make it easy to drive. Plenty of room for 4 people to sit comfortably. Large carrying space in the back. The dashboard isn’t huge like most SUV’s it practically has no dashboard at all.

The engine is either underpowered at only 210 HP or the transmission needs different gearing to make straight line acceleration better.

The price, the look, the performance, lifetime power train warranty and the overall reliability make it a most excellent choice for a vehicle.

The 2009 Honda Fit

Honda Fit

It is perfect for the cost and value. Easy to keep clean inside and out!
This five speed four door Fit has much better gas mileage than stickers claims. Get 38 to 41 mpg consistently. Interior is very adequate for the investment. Could use some great mats and not the factory 95 pound rubber ones for 10K.Front end is too low for the current parking places, and slightly steep driveways. Stay way sideways when pulling into anything. Visibility is great all around the car. Not able to get full size spare in spare tire compartment, slight bummer.

The 2009 Honda CR-V

Honda CR-V

This is a great SUV.  It’s roomy, comfortable, looks good and fun to drive, doesn’t feel like a big, bulky vehicle. It is pretty quiet, sure footed, but where it really shines is in the snow and ice driving.

It is also a well-built vehicle that includes all the modern safety features available. The hi-fi system is really nice, and the gas mileage is 31mpg on highway – 26/27mpg around town. It could have used more sound insulation or tweaked the muffler to make things a bit more quiet – but it’s not too bad.

This new CR-V handles like a sedan but the materials are not as good quality as the previous Honda. The door squeak, the plastics stain and scratch easily and the rugs just don’t seem to last long.

Engine runs great and comfort is undeniable.
It’s strongly recommend a CRV to anyone interested in a small SUV.
