</div>In February 2005, '''[[Dodge]]''' introduced a new full-sized [[rear wheel drive]] Charger on the Chrysler LX platform also used by the [[Chrysler 300]] and [[Dodge Magnum]]. The 1999 Charger concept borrowed a number of classic muscle car design cues, but the final version delivered to the public appeared vastly different from the concept version.

The [[Honda]] CR-V is roomy, convenient and easy to drive. You can put lots of stuff in it and the back seats are quite comfortable. It rides smoothly, more so than most [[SUV]]s. It's surprisingly maneuverable in tight quarters and handles well on winding roads yet it's stable at freeway speeds, even in stiff crosswinds. <small>([[Honda CR-V Review|more...]])</small>
