I have a 2006 EX FWD and really enjoy it. Pros - + Easy to clean the inside. + Roomier than it appears (lots of rear passenger leg room). + Rear seats can be folded up or removed altogether. + Lots of room in the back for groceries, etc., even with the rear seats in place. + Front and rear seats can connect to make 2 beds for camping. + I have also found that the engine compartment is very well insulated. For example, I can power-spray the whole car and the engine stays bone dry. This is a big deal to me. + Transmission is very smooth. + Honda reliability. Neutral - +/- Averages about 23 mpg, city and highway mixed. +/- Offroading capabilities very limited, even with AWD. Cons - - 4 cylinder engine seems like a dog, at times. - Seating configuration only allows for 4 passengers (not 5). - Owners manual only recommends loading vehicle with 675 lbs. total. I found this very odd because 4 passengers can easily weigh that much. Overall, great car. It is an ideal vehicle for anyone, especially if you like to camp/fish/hike, etc.
