My first round trip road trip from OC to Vegas and all in all, WOW!
A few technical challenges on the first leg, with not knowing some things like how the cruise control works, to some sort of vehicle lane and distance between the car in front of me assist! Still getting used to all the bells and whistles coming from my vintage 2006 CRV!
The ride is so smooth and quiet even down to the continental tires that have horrible reviews.
Oh, it’s so quiet that for the entire time I left the noise of city traffic I could hear an air flow noise when I had no music, AC or even vent air on. Figured it out when I got home, my nephew turned the passenger seat cushion vent on when he was pushing all sorts of buttons and I didn’t see it behind my water bottle.
I love that there are zero blind spots!
My gas mileage was fantastic too! I made it to Vegas 291 miles (door to door) on 1/2 tank of gas 20.9mpg, and home tonite on a little more than 3/4 tank 28mpg and the traffic was so bad - it took me 9 hours to get home vs 5 to get there and 5-6 is my normal.
Cons on my Passport:
- the stupid idle stop option. I always forget to turn it off.
- it doesn’t fly like Dumbo...(we watched the movie last night).
- the cup holder doesn’t fit my 40 oz hydro flask with water. So I ordered an expanded from amazon and it’s horrible...it comes out with the whole bottle then falls off on the passenger floor.
