Does any one have anything to say ( good,bad) about the CRV-EX,
I am looking to buy a 2003 model, also has anybody installed non dealer
sidesteps on one.

Thank you

I picked mine up on May 28. Silver. I like it a lot. I don't like the
front coffee mug holders -- seems like the cup will fit it only one way
-- a way that's not convenient for me to grasp. Love the moon roof,
love the CD player, like that the side mirrors "bend" in. Miss the
center console storage from my Accord. Drawer under the passenger's
seat is hard to open. Took me a bit to find the "spare change"
compartment with the door on it. I don't like that the visor mirrors
don't light. I really, really like sitting up higher. Picnic table is
fun to show people. I'm not used to having the contents of my "trunk"
visible -- I tend to cart a lot of crap around with me. And I love the
color! Next question. :-)

I love everything on my 02 CRV. Only one thing I hate, tires. I will replace
them ASAP. It's hard not to make the tires spin in the rain when the light
goes from red to green. I will get a set of yokohama avid s/t 225/70/15.
Besides that, it's great, fun, and excellent price.

I have one...I love it. My mpg is only 20-21 though, but I tend to drive
it a bit hard. Others seem to do better. No sidesteps here.

Also, I don't like that the windows won't open or close after the
ignition is turned off. 8*-( In my '98 Accord, I had 30 seconds
or until a door was opened to open or close a window, whichever came
first.

Getting used to the shift lever is interesting -- I've turned the
windshield washers/wipers on more than once, by accident. (*^:^*)
