@SimonLee977214 сағат бұрын
I've driven all 3 of these cars numerous times: For a sporty drive, best quality build, and an upscale interior, hands down go with the Mazda CX50. For best MPG in a noisy and really cheaped-out cabin, go with RAV4. For the most pleasant drive (Honda's CVT is truly a superior driving experience) and the most quiet cabin of the three cars, go with CRV. They're all reliable cars. For resale value, Toyota, Honda, Mazda in this order. That's my 2 cents.
@ytj2213 сағат бұрын
You need to get into limited trim RAV to get a decent interior. Entry trims are definitely less plush.
@tonynguyen322310 сағат бұрын
agree. most reliable is rav4 but noisy. comfort and quiet cabin is crv. sporty drive and nice inferior is fhe mazda. i don’t think you can go wrong buying any of the 3.

We watch all your vids. Even the ones that really don't apply to us. Thanks! This video? Very interesting on a number of points. My beloved 2006 Toyota Solara was destroyed (on the left side, from front bumper to back bumper, all the way down) by a Silverado making an illegal left turn. I loved that car. It took SIX months to calm down enough to seriously consider replacing it, SEVEN months to look forward to a new car, and EIGHT months to be ready to pull the trigger on a purchase. We like the Toyota Crown Signia. You guys (and others) gave it a pretty positive review. But it is pricey and at the finish line, we're hesitating. And then you pointed out the threat of tariffs--which we knew and I was thinking about, but my husband was more concerned with the economy tanking and cars being cheaper. I was concerned with NO cars being available. Your statement gave him the kick in the butt he needed to put aside those thoughts and just get it. And your banter about Canada's politics and government? I am so sorry you're as screwed as we are right now. It looks like most Western countries are "coincidentally" facing similar issues, from the Americas, to Europe, to Japan and South Korea. Wishing you and your nation better fortune. Thanks again for all the info!!
