After much research, I traded in my 2019 Jeep Compass for a CR-V. I went to the dealership in hopes of going home with a 2022, but with such a shortage, it wasn’t possible. I did, however, purchase a 2019 with very low miles and all the options I could have hoped for. After almost 3 weeks, I can say I’ll have this thing until the wheels fall off. Absolutely stunning vehicle in all aspects!
Hey CR-V mate. You made a good decision in the trade. I had many cars from different brands but there's no reliability and durability like Honda and Toyota. I do have the same trim and color as shown in this video and is a great vehicle and excellent in snowy winters here in the Cleveland Ohio area. I hope you are enjoying your CR-V as well.
Just decided to pull the trigger and buy one. Got the white with the cream leather interior. It is gorgeous and I love it! Thanks for this video..it helped me make a decision.
Thanks Matt. I was about to sign a contract for the sport trim, but after this video I decided to wait for Exl to come over, honda’s waiting is very long these days.
6:59 - Just found out the Honda CRV Hybrid does not include a spare tire/kit. THAT is a deal breaker for me. Honda loses a life long fan. Luckily the Toyota RAV4 hybrid retains the spare tire. Switching reluctantly to Toyota.
Does it still have the space for it? Some manufacturers don't include it to reduce weight and gain gas mileage but leave the space empty. You could add it if it does have the space
Is it possible to change them out and get rid of them I don’t like a girly car and I’m a girl an older one but a girl I like more sporty style. I am over being a 60s flower child which is what that brings to mind. Lol. Thank you so much for your great video it is a big help
And once again where is my GPS and my CD player going? And don’t tell me to use my phone for music not happening there has to be a place to put it in aftermarket
@@michelleaferrandino9084 On their website Honda has 3 wheel choices for US. The ones in the video come standard from the factory, tge other 2 are expensive as they go up a size to 19 inch and will require different size tires. If you hate the "flower" ones your best choice would be to go aftermarket where you can find decent rims for
Hmm they call it a smartphone now lol. But seriously GPS is now subscription based or you can use Android Auto or Apple carplay for free. Most manufacturers now dont equip their vehicles with CD player on favor of digital media through your smartphone or memory stick.
@@MattTheCarguy for one the seat doesn't work for shore people like me. I had a 2020 Ford Escape Titanium. When I set the seat for me and turned off the car it would slide back so I could get out. This one doesn't do that so I have to spend some time playing with the seat to work for me. I have to put it back manually set it then when I get back in I have to play with it to adjust it for me. If I get a phone call while I'm in the house and go out to the car and start the car it doesn't go to the car. I have to try to make it work manually ..it doesn't work
@@barbd3488 as far as i know the Cr-v Touring has memory seats that retract knce you turn off the vehicle for easier exit and entry. Not sure about the bluetooth but i would imagine its the same system as in my 2019 Honda Pilot and it switches with no issues to bluetooth once i get in the car. My wife had similar problem with her old phone but once upgraded it works fine. What model do you have. Your ford was the top trim.
@@MattTheCarguy I asked about the touring model and they told me it is the same as the one I got. My phone is an iPhone 12 Pro Max and that is top of the line. I guess I’m stuck for now with a very expensive car. It’s to bad there is a very annoying expense for something that really doesn’t work for me. I lose
@@barbd3488 I am sorry it does not work for you. Touring is the only one with memory seats which move back when you turn off the engine or unlock the vehicle. It is a feature not available on the lower trims. If you are having Bluetooth issues maybe contact your Honda dealer and have them diagnose the issue. I hope you'll get this worked out. In the worst case scenario if you are unhappy with the vehicle you can trade in in for a different one. Good part about Honda is that they keep their value really high.

Congratulations!! It is a great vehicle. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for telling me your color combo decision really liking that I need
I am a fan of CVT for every day comfort drive around city with better fuel efficiency. Love CR-V. Thank you for the video 😊
Thanks for watching! Yes CVT definitely makes the ride smoother and helps with gas mileage. It does take a little away from "fun to drive"
My current vehicle with exactly the same color and EX-L trim. Honestly, The CR-V is a great vehicle and I love it.
I totally agree!
just picked up my new 2022 (selling my 2010 CRV), so far love it
it's a great vehicle. i am still on the fence whether the 2023 is an improvement or not. 2022 were so good.
@@MattTheCarguy i thought too large for me so rushed to pick up the 22

You're welcome! Congratulations on your purchase! How long is the wait? And where are you?
My CRV EX-L will be here this week. I’m glad I got it over the Forester.
Congrats on your new car! Great choice!
Just got my 2022 crv on 3-15-24 i was surprised the dealer had one but i love it traded in my 2016 malibu for it
You bought 2022 brand new now? Wow.
@MattTheCarguy it had 14,000 miles on it still pretty new but I love it already
Wow!! This is my dream car. I pray to God that I will one day buy this car.
I hope you will. Thank you for watching!
Hands down the 5th generation CRV is the best love it
I like the 5th gen as well.
And they took my table damn
I remember the table. That was cool!
What does the lumbar do
It helps to maintain the natural curvature of the back, reducing discomfort.

Well the one I looked at had it. In fact I made the comment to the salesman of how nicely the jack and other tools fit around the spare tire.
@@andreaetchison991 were ypu looking at Hybrid specifically or just a gasoline only? There may be one in gasoline version but not in Hybrid.
So far this guy comments this exact comment copied and pasted on 2 videos of the 2022 crv. In my opinion hes a toyota employee of some sort
I didn’t know that but thank you for telling me because that is enough to put me off buying The car also
I think the flowers on the wheels look job and it makes it look like your mom car
Haha, they do look like flowers.... and my mom would love to have one.

That big long stick on the instrument panel to control the trip computer is ugly! Pilot's just have a flat button. Much better.
Lol, if thats the only complaint than Honda has done a great job. They are most likely saving it for full redesign.
I had a 2002 and a 2014 they ruined my 2002 I love that car they’ve made it a mom car they made it a station wagon I love my Truckee 2002
To each their own, maybe they will come out with the TrailSport edition to make it more "rugged" New gen Cr-v photos are online already.
Where is my GPS where is my CD player

Best???? I’d like to see worse I just bought one and I hate it!!!!
Really? What do you hate about it? And what did you drive before?
