Not trading but if I was looking for a better ride/HP/SUV, I like the Mazda CX-5 and Rav 4.

 

I might go up in size to the CRV
.... unless of course a boatload of cash comes my way- then it's a Mclaren !

 

I went to 3 dealers, but couldn’t make a deal. In chronological order, Toyota, Volvo, Acura. I wanted a TRD rav4 really bad. Couldn’t get price I wanted. Xc40 beautiful car, did not have the one I want in stock at price range. RDX, couldn’t get price I wanted.

I still have 2 Hondas, and would absolutely buy Honda’s again...and hope the gen 2 HRV will be cleaned up a lot and not have these issues.

The current one is already 2nd gen. 1st gen came out over 20 years ago.

As for this topic... honestly, I have no idea.

I bought my 2010 Fit, in 2010. Aside from being benched because it needs a few repairs, I don't see myself replacing it anytime soon.

The only reasons I bought the HR-V were to have something I could transport my mother a bit easier (though that plan went to shit with covid and all) and to have a backup in case the Fit is down (which happened a few times already).

So... I guess I'll just see what comes up in the future.

 

Cmon, try out that new Supra! Ha

Wish I had the money.

 

X2 M35i- delivers 12/1/20 to me-301 hp/AWD

 

Most likely a Subaru Forester (want AWD) unless Honda gets its act together. I would get leather seats next time. I had good luck with a previous Subaru I bought used.

 

Considering how reluctant they were on the rav4. No way they would have lowered a penny on the Supra. Also, I don’t have a garage. I would only buy a type r or Supra if I had a garage.

 

Will hit one year of ownership at the end of November on the EX-L and plan on keeping it al least another year. Maybe longer since I purchased it outright but I'm casually looking for a low mileage (under 100k) 8th gen Civic Si.

 

Intend to keep my HR-V for the foreseeable future, however, the drivetrain on this appeals;

Suzuki Across review | Autocar

Japanese brand tiptoes into expensive, electrified SUV territory, with Toyota’s help

Probably about 98+% of my journeys would be covered with the electric only range.

Would give you the $ equivalent of £45+k but it may be way out if you read this tomorrow…

 

Keeping the car for the foreseeable future, even though it has not budged since July. Figured I'd get $9,000-$10,000 if I sell the car to CarMax or a local dealer. I'd be hard-pressed to find a car in as decent of shape with that low of operating costs for that much money.

 

Old post but I'm only sporadically on here. I do this too. I like to have a backup plan and, heck, it's nice to daydream. In all actuality, if the HR-V got crushed by a tree while parked, I'd probably not replace it. At this point the HR-V is a spare car. I used to have a 100+ mile commute, which was the HR-V's role. I've since moved within bicycling distance.

If I had to replace it with something and didn't want a loan payment, I'd consider the Toyota Prius V. They fell in value after the latest RAV4 hybrid came out, which gets better gas mileage and has AWD-e. I could scoop a decent one up for maybe a few grand on top of whatever I could get for the HR-V. Other contender is the Kia Soul with the manual transmission.

If I didn't mind a loan payment, I'd probably get a late-model Toyota RAV4, or a preowned Ford Explorer with the 3.5L V6.

I recant what I said earlier. Sold the HR-V earlier this year after staring at it for two years. Leaves me with just my pickup truck. Unless a tree falls on it, I won't be looking for a new vehicle for at least 2-3 years.

If a tree does fall on it, I'd probably replace it with the same model but different trim. If it makes it 2-3 more years, I'm hoping to either be comparing a Ford Maverick hybrid AWD (currently only hybrid FWD or EcoBoost FWD/AWD are offered) or the supposed Ford Ranger PowerBoost or Ford Ranger PHEV.

Heck at this point I'd even consider a Maverick hybrid FWD. It gets better gas mileage than my HR-V did, and it can carry a full size washing machine, dryer, and tow 2,000lbs.

 

I'm always contemplating this in case I total it and need a quick replacement

I'd consider the CRV for bigger size, ride, and power, but I kinda like the small firm factor of the HRV in my garage

The Mazda CX-5 looks nice

If my wife had an suv, I'd think about electric. We have family 6 hours away though, need at least one large road trip car

The new bronco has a manual option... Very cool. I'll miss my stick in the HRV when it comes time to move on

Civic Si Sport 2020 Hatchback

 

I've been looking online at the 2021 MAZDA CX-30 GS model. Its $35k CAD off the lot, and getting great reviews. What are others thoughts on this vehicle?

Personally I think it looks best in class, lots of great reviews too. My biggest concern is it's a bit small for what I need right now

I might get a Subaru Outback or Forester.

 

My mind says Supra, my bank account says another HRV!

 

My passion says the new Ford Mustang Mach-E Premium. My desire to retire sooner says... think something more economical! https://www.ford.com/suvs/mach-e/models/mach-e-premium/

 

My HR-V is now nearly five years old, and has only required routine maintenance so far. (The CVT does make me nervous, however, so the fluid has been changed three times so far). I've looked into replacing it with a CR-V, or even a 2018-2021 Accord 2.0T with winter-rated tires, but new car prices are obscene! Three year-old used CR-Vs are also only a few thousand dollars less than a new one in my area. I remember when you could buy an Accord for 10k...

 

You may find this of interest....

 

Another HRV in 2024 then a 2025+ Model Y - this will be about the time that the chasis is 3 castings and they have switched to the next type of solid battery. The December 2021 model will go 520+ miles so I am assuming that one will go 800-1000 although they may cut the battery size to reduce weight and keep a 600 mile range.

 

I've had my eyes on a Ridgeline since they were ugly. Now I'm liking the Sport AWD models.

 

Too soon to say.....we just bought it in July and tend to keep our cars maintained and own them for a LOOOOONG time, so, time will tell

 

No clue! Just got the HRV; not even 4k on it yet. Whatever makes the wife happy I guess.

 

Toyota Corolla.

 

Will have to wait and see what's on the Menu when it's time to move on.

 

My HRV is now over 6 years old. I got one of the first delivered in Denver. While it only has 60K miles, I'm getting an itch to drive something new. The new Mustang Mach E is intriguing to me. I plan to drive one soon and get an idea if I can really live with the limits of a battery powered vehicle.
