2017 Ford Flex Limited Review

The 2017 Ford Flex Limited is a heavy duty hauler for those who have a large family and want a vehicle with plenty of power to tow extra storage. The trade off of the high power engine is it's intense use of gas. If fuel economy isn't important to you and you always transport 6 or more passengers this may be a vehicle you'd want to test drive.

2017 Honda HRV Review

Honda HRV may not be the fastest vehicle in it's category but it makes up for that with the modern interior design, excellent fuel economy, sporty handling, driver experience, generous storage space, handsome exterior and aggressive pricing. It is a good choice for those looking for a family oriented vehicle with the feel good factor. The HRV's compact size and surprisingly roomy interior makes it a great choice for those who drive in tight city conditions often or looking for a small and efficient crossover.
