it should be a great car. saw it at GM motors here. brilliant fit and finish, great ergonomics,plenty of space,monster of an engine. would have picked it up in a flash if it was atleast rear wheel drive. its that good.
but now, in its current avatar, it cant even be called a soft roader.
apparently, the great car buying public of our country voted not to put 4WD in it during the chevy customer surveys. I find it hard to believe that. this is pure cost cutting.

and the tucson can lock into 4WD under 40kmph. not sure about the CRV
