I've subscribed to this magazine for a number of years and have found most reviews to be fairly accurate. In fact the Honda CRV has been and remains this magazines favorite compact SUV - being rated number one over a lot of higher priced rigs. Writers have qualified, in the past, their testing for reviews are very intensive and most likely the average purchaser will never push the vehicles to these limits. I was hopeful for a better review as well as I was planning to purchase one......primarily for the V6 - non turbo engine. CRVs, I understand are having problems with the 1.5 l turbo engine. Guess I'll wait for a while?Considering Motor Trend sold their last front cover to Chevrolet, I wouldn't be surprised if a glowing review of the Blazer isn't too far behind.
