Honda vs Toyota
Honda cars handle better than Toyota cars, in general. And Honda
drivers tend to drive their cars harder and wear out tires and brakes
faster. That said, Honda brakes are some of the worst and Toyotas some
of the best with respect to durability. Friends of mine with a CRV
also remarked about poor tire wear. They needed more room and bought
an AWD Sienna which they say is superior in every way except mpg.
A Honda car may handle better, but my Rav4 will run rings around a CRV in
handling. That tank gets maybe 22-24 mpg and I get in the winter 24-26 and
in the summer 27-30. Even when I drove the CRV on a trip I could only get 28
out of it.
