Homer's car...still better than the 2012 CRV.
Really? Thats the best you can do? Wow.
I have leased a new Honda CRV since the first version came out in 1995. If memory serves, it had a little golfball on the gearshift. It was a classic.
I currently own a 2010 CRV, and at the end of my lease, I will not be leasing nor purchasing another one. Like most consumers, I vote with my wallet, and my vote is a sound “no” for this laughable and strange design. A smaller back window? Yes, that’s what drivers want. More blind spots. A humungous bubble butt that makes the car taller and more awkward and probably more likely to tip over? Oh yes. Didn’t you, like other SUV makers, learn a lesson from the Pontiac Aztek? A car so ugly that they couldn’t give it away on the show Survivor?
So what do you do with an ugly, yet affordable lemon? You find a shill to promote your vehicle in a Super Bowl advertisement. A shill that represents the good-time 1980s and also killed a person in a drunk driving accident in 1987. What on earth were you thinking? This individual should never be associated with a car that you want to market.
So I say good day to you, Honda CRV. It was fun while it lasted, but our journey is over.
The fine people at Moleskine, who have been taking my money in exchange for notebooks for the past decade, are out to take more of my money with the introduction of these interesting new pencils. A square design with a “pen cap” and a sharpener could be twee and/or ingenious, and I am anxious to find out.
