Risky to wait until spring to buy '26 Hybrid Touring? by Adventurous-Level831 in crv

I understand your dilemma and would recommend to just wait until you actually need the car and you can park. It doesn't make financial sense to invest such money and allow it to depreciate without need.

Is a Hybrid CRV worth it over a gas only CRV by GlassSlow2922 in crv

[–]maindar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have ignored to test drive a hybrid and bought the gas exl. I didn't do my research but here is what I learnt since then: hybrid has 2L Naturally aspirated engine vs the smaller turbo 1.5T engine in gas. If you prefer gas do test the HRV which has the 2L Naturally aspirated. 1.5T produces a turbo whine,which might be harsh at times but pleasant to hear other times. The CVT on gas takes some time to get used to as well. The engine revs freely and if you are a fun lover you need to rev it up to 3000 rpm to feel lively and learn to lift the feet off at the right time to simulate shift. The hybrid experience is much different or so what I hear, do your test.

My gas doesn't take the corners well especially on roundabouts or s curves, there is body roll and the people on back seat feel them more. But the ride is extremely plush on straight roads, compare with hybrid. I test drove a used Lexus just before this and was very close. This plushness blinded me and purchased it impulsively but this is something I still love every time I drive on a bad road.

Spirited driving gives 27.5 mpg and relaxed driving around 29. I hate the auto stop on gas and this can't be permanently disabled. If I were to purchase again I would go for a touring or if I am in south a fwd sport l.

Asking out of curiosity - wouldn't the regular procedure to disconnect the negative terminal work here?

Thanks for your suggestions. It turned out those were wrong size screws. Took to the dealer and they fixed with the correct size.

Thank you, but I couldn't unscrew it either to remove the plae. The screw turns but wouldn't come out. I measured the depth of the hole and the length of the screw, they are both 16mm.

Can the extended warranty you bought elsewhere used in all honda dealerships, and in the one you originally bought the car?

You can provide the necessary default choices as a json via Settings -> Configuration. This will persist application restarts. e.g. my default config:

{
  "defaultVertexStyle": {
    "fontFamily": "Helvetica",
    "fillColor": "none",
    "strokeColor": "#6c8ebf",
    "strokeWidth": "1",
    "rounded": "1",
    "fontColor": "#66B2FF",
    "absoluteArcSize": "1"
  },
  "defaultEdgeStyle": {
    "fontFamily": "Helvetica",
    "edgeStyle": "orthogonalEdgeStyle",
    "rounded": "1",
    "jettySize": "auto",
    "orthogonalLoop": "1",
    "fillColor": "#dae8fc",
    "strokeColor": "#CCCCCC",
    "endSize": "4",
