OFFROAD Build In A 2000 Honda CR-V RD1: AWD & Fully Equipped!

Hello everyone,
On this episode we meet Miguel and his fully equipped Honda CRV! I learned quite a bit from Miguel about the CRVs in general. These awesome CRVs are ready for adventure at all times. It was nice to hear the different accessories that are available for this chassis. Miguel continues to source and gut these awesome family cars. It helps when he is the first one at the junkyards to find the rare pieces.

220000 miles on my crv right now still running strong I love these cars I think I want to buy another

[@seshanin]

Thats enouraging! Mine has 207k and no major problems

[@nyambemundopu1168]

I really love HONDA CRV, especially the manual transmission. It's a super-duper ride.

[@AutomotiveAnatomy]

Couldn't agree more!

[@benromanos.2931]

I always like this generation of CRV's the most ! What a great build, one to be proud of

[@8bitsamurai6]

Yea about 05 most hondas lost their iconic shapes. Same with civics.

[@jrbrian762]

"I have what I always wanted" so nice to hear man. Such a clean build!

[@miquem360]

Thanks alot !!!

[@AutomotiveAnatomy]

Glad you like it!

[@jameshype8131]

Got to give props to this brother man, what a clean old school Honda Crv. Let me tell you when money is no Object you can make any car look good. I tell you if I had the money I will make my old school 2004 Toyota RAV4 look super clean.

[@miquem360]

Thanks a lot… 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@christianobrien4465]

This is the CRV Honda NEEDS to build. There is something to be said about an affordable SUV, one that can be used and functional for more than just moms with baby seats. Mom can use this one and dad can be proud using it too… Thayer can afford it and drive a bad ass truck at the same time. Hope Honda pays attention to this channel cause it’ll tell them what people want and need.

My first car was a 98 CR-V it was a fwd automatic. I loved that thing. Now I have an element with the AWD and 5 speed manual and love it. I miss my old crv but the element is so much the same feel.

[@CasualGaming76]

I just had watched the video on the stone silver lookin C-RV and I gotta say. This takes it. Definitely going to be some inspiration behind my c-rv build. This one is gorgeous.

I spliced into my running lights for my fog lights so when I turn my runners on the fogs turn on with em. I didn’t want to mess with running the wire through my fire wall and mounting a switch. Love this crv it’s lovely.

I got a 2001 CRV 253000km I bought it a month ago, white like yours and 2.0, its a 5 speed an all wheel drive, lower control arms being replaced on Wednesday. A week ago i bought a 2 seater couch, I folded the rear seat & it fitted easily.

I just got the Honda cooler/fridge off of eBay. I also got one of the 12v showers they offered. A reproduction but I wanted to show it off. I just bought a low mileage 2000 EX rd1 CRV.

[@miquem360]

Awesome! How much

[@AK-xu5sj]

@@miquem360 for which thing? The CR-V was $2000. About $30 for the shower and $140 for the Honda cooler including shipping from the UK. I just got the cooler and tested it this morning. It’s in near mint condition and is working. I’m going to run a test on it and post a video down the road since I can’t find much info on them.

[@miquem360]

The cooler!! That’s a great price man! What’s your insta to follow you and check your videos out

[@AK-xu5sj]

@@miquem360 no insta. I’ll just post to KZbin. Yeah, when I saw it I snatched it up. I’m sure a CR-V collector will want one down the road so it was a safe investment. I’m going to keep the CR-V bone stock and keep the miles down. It’s definitely hitting a lo-fi nostalgia nerve and should be a fun car. I do plan on some car camping as well. I live in Alaska.
