2022 Subaru Outback

navigation

With my vehicle it was that the voice activation of the nav and search systems simply didn't work.

Unfortunately the infotainment screen is laggy and shuts off randomly shutting down everything except the engine,, safety systems, radio, gps, ac are all used through the laggy screen.

Infotainment can be a little touchy, wish nav used Google maps.

Electronics are consistently awful, from the (not really) voice-activated navigation to the slow, finicky touch-screen that controls nearly everything.

button is almost impossible to find&#47;use. The voice-activated navigation is unreliable - try entering a local address and the system responds "Would you like to navigate to the center of Lenox Iowa?"

Electronics are awful - voice navigation pretty much impossible to use; touch screen very slow to react; some

audio-system

The infotainment system can be a little confusing (mainly around profile management),

cons: HORRIBLE dash system, get RID OF the Screen!

I really do not understand all the reviews with hatred for the touch pad&#47;infotainment system, in fact for me it is a high point of the car!

failure

Subaru driver recognition works sometimes and in a repair order they say it’s designed to fail.

The electronics are annoying, faulty and poorly designed.

voice-command

transmission

The cvt transmission is awful, sucking the life out of the engine.

The Wilderness is quicker off the line, faster overall, with much smoother shifts from the revised transmission, with little body roll compromise when cornering at speed.

The CVT transmission is the worst ever - jumpy, jerky, and unable to match power requirements to transmission gearing.

function

Some useful functions are buried layers deep in the touch screen, which is slow-responding and washes out from reflected sunlight.

speed

but the overall driving experience regarding acceleration, speed, and corning fell short.

The 2.4 turbo engine is noisy and rough-sounding, and only smooth at highway speed.

comfortable

Very safe, comfortable and nice car to drive.

Altho the cloth seats could be more comfortable, love everything else except the car shutting off at stops.

The vehicle was highly rated and is very comfortable,

It accelerates better due to the turbo engine and is more comfortable inside.

This is the nicest riding most comfortable car I have ever owned.

The seats may very well be the most comfortable I've ever had in a car.

There are some positives: the seats are very comfortable and the ride is good.

ride

pros: Smooth ride, pretty quiet interior, nice seats, sound system is good.

It rides incredible and handles beautifully too.

Ride is great , gas mileage is 33mpg and Subaru reliability
 Really love this car and we feel so safe in it .

safety

The luxury and safety of the Subaru is unmatched for the price.

you need all the safety stuff because your always looking down.

however, beyond comfort, the excellent ‘safety’ rating was impressive to each of us.

However, I dare you to find another car that offers so much standard safety features.

Great styling, safety features and lots of space for transporting gear or shopping items.

My 2022 Outback Touring with Java Brown Nappa interior is simply the best yet, with Eyesight Technology and all of the safety features, e.g., Lane Keeping, Adaptive Cruise Control & Blind Spot Monitoring etc.

2022 Volkswagen Taos

The transmission shifts inconsistently causing either jerking of vehicle at low speeds or inadequate acceleration when needed to merge into traffic.

I would rate this vehicle at least 4 stars if the transmission did not make driving this vehicle Work and tiresome.

The DSG transmission is a very poor choice for this vehicle.

The transmission is a bit laggy from a start

but until the embarrassing 7-speed transmission gets addressed, I wouldn't recommend the Taos to someone.

The only negative comments I have is about the transmission.

but the uneven power delivery is a hazard and I would warn others to avoid the AWD version until a future time when VW either fixes this condition or uses a different transmission in the next version.

lights

.the car violently Jerks sometimes when stop at the light when the ignition shuts off,the lane assist will randomly shut off.

I purchased this in January and at only 4000 miles has been to the dealer multiple times for stop start stalling, EPC code, check engine light and other electronic issues.

Lately, while driving, the car will flash the check engine light when it's low on gas.

A vehicle has to perform the basic functions well or the vehicle has no purpose.

The first is the transmission, which quite frankly, is embarrassing at lower speeds.

but gained AWD, way more passenger space for family and friends and a more comfortable riding position for when I feel like running about.

The quiet and smooth ride of the Taos has been thoughtfully designed and engineered.

It has a very comfortable ride (a little on the firmer side) and it handles very well for a CUV.

Nice balance between sportiness, efficiency, noise, & ride.

It's a very compact car, I find that the passenger seat ride is okay - I have a baby-seat in the rear that only allows for so much room in front-passenger seat

It’s a comfortable ride and easy to maneuver.

The car is beautiful on the outside and such a smooth ride.

Acceleration is not bad, better in Sport mode, ride is good, and handling surprisingly nimble.

The soft touch makes resting the elbow more comfortable,

Sporty stylish exterior and technology-packed interior with loads of room and extremely comfortable seats.

On our first road trip we averaged almost 42 MPG in great comfort and safety.

Interior is extremely comfortable for 4, w/ lots of luggage space.

but nice, and the seats are super comfortable.

room

I'm 6'6" and I fit quite comfortably inside, plenty of head, leg, and knee room!

Great fuel economy, handles like a sports car and plenty of room on the in the cabin.

but, you should not need to push the seat back for basic foot room.

I'm 6'4, and I have ample leg and head room.

2022 Ford Maverick

Fords ordering system is the worst thing I have ever seen.

When I roll four passengers deep, everyone has plenty of space for ergonomically correct natural resting positions (they don't have to contort and twist to fit for the ride), decent audio from the base factory radio, a place for their small personal belongings in the convenient door pockets, convenient cupholders for beverages, plentiful and easily accessible ports for charging their phones and tablets, and - to top it off - in-vehicle WiFi (which has excellent bandwidth in my area - only &#36;25 a month through AT

The EV sound is annoying, since they forgot to add any insulation from the factory, it's loud.

The hybrid sound is too loud,
The horn makes more noise in the cabin than it does outside.

noise

The only issue so far is a clicking type rattle in my dash that only happens on certain slow bumps in my neighborhood, once I am on the highway it goes away. Strange.

My first impression during the test drive was that nearly everything about it seemed well-refined for the price point except for the engine noise.

The Panels all rattle
The dash rattles
The Gas engine is loud and unrefined
The Hybrid brake system was an after thought..

port

Ford needs to eliminate the small storage compartment on the right of the screen since it is useless and in my view eliminate the electrical outlet in the rear seating area to be replaced with an AC vent.

phone

The only thing you have to move eye focus to is the touch screen radio--unless you have your phone connected and can just use CarPlay to do everything.

brake

Like everything except the brakes, very touchy at the bottom of the pedal.

The safety features have kept me clear of several potentially dangerous situations, and I am mostly pleased with how the systems function together.

It gets amazing gas mileage,
Everyone looks at it..
Cons:
Build quality it appalling,
It’s useless on a highway, you’ll need miles to gain enough speed to pass someone.

4 can ride nicely,back seat has just enough room.

Handling is good, and the ride is very comfortable.

the vehicle is fun to drive the ride is smooth and the build quality seems to be very good, no squeaks or rattles.

It rides great, accelerates just fine, and has more than adequate room for 4.

the truck rides great, it's very smooth and extremely quiet.

The ride is much better than my 2019 Civic.

Solid, roomy,  great performance,  nice smooth and quiet ride for a pickup.

Enough room for a 6'1" man at 260 to enjoy driving or riding in the Maverick.

The ride us much smoother and quieter than the Tacoma it has replaced and I'm using less than half the gas.

but when I sat in one at a local car show,  I realized my Maverick was much more roomier and comfortable than the full size Bronco.

Exceeds expectations: Beautiful design, perfect size, drives fantastic, comfortable on long trips, great visibilty, and its QUIET.

the vehicle handles like a small, has a comfortable driving position lots of options and nothing else out there looks like it!

but big uses, no issues at 12k, very comfortable and drives great!

The seats are very comfortable even for the large and tall.

The interior is probably the most comfortable I've enjoyed in a utility vehicle to date.

It is actually very comfortable and the interior is very functional and I can park it in my garage.

mileage

but the dealer was able to take care of them  it delivers great MPG, of 45-50, around town, 32-34 on ths open road.

Overall happy with the performance and gas mileage (34mpg).

First edition carbonized gray
Mileage after 7 months of driving is 22 mpg.

It is so nice to get 40 plus mpg daily and run to the hardware store and pick up a load of mulch or haul bicycles and never.

So far, I am impressed with the little truck. Fuel economy is on par with what I was getting avg in my fusion (usually 40 - 43 mpg.)

The aerodynamics of the vehicle means you blow all over the place over 70mph
Highway MPG is less than the GTI i owned and that was way better built and more fun to drive.

It’s comfortable, easy to drive,  surprisingly peppy, and I am getting 43 MPG.

Very impressed with the mileage, as about 60% was freeway driving, and I still averaged like 44mpg!

Went over 120 mph on the freeway, very sturdy! Ps.

2021 Honda CR-V Hybrid

screen

There are far too many display pages an at least  half of them are meaningless and useless.

If I must be critical the only thing I would say is the infotainment display and the cars backup camera system could be better quality considering how nice the rest of the car is put together.

I feel that Honda is really generous in details and functions, not to mention more than its competitors.

Good car if you have to travel in lots of traffic, it will run electric function and save fuel.

Also environmentally friendly with EV mode function.

Sport mode and paddle speed control perfect for Blue Ridge pkwy travel.

I enjoy my new car from Honda, like anything I recommend doing the research before buying to avoid disappointment, the one item that some people commented on I have noticed which is the acceleration issue to highway speeds.

Lane departure, Cruise assist, speed maintain auto, blind spot, back up camera with sensors and a few more!

interior

Big car with plenty of room, beautiful inside and out.

Honda CRV interior quality superb, clean, simple, easy to use and stylish.

The leather interior is soft and stylish and is a great combination with the exterior paint color.

The car is a beautiful dark blue metallic with a gray interior.

I love everything about this vehicle inside and out.

I love the interior color and the leather seats.

Get the hybrid and drive conservatively, and beat this &#36;5 gas, and still have lots of room.

The spot for the "fix a flat" has a weird box thing that takes of space needlessly.

5) Honda is more roomy interior both seating and the truck space (except the under cover area in the trunk.

This car is roomy, plenty of leg space at the front and back.

Great space, storage, wireless charging, USB ports.

Beautiful , comfortable, and reliable with advanced and easy to use safety electronics.

Most important things, I like about car is comfort and sound.

3) Handling is fantastic: It’s a car for every day driving, quiet, comfortable and smooth handling vs. RAV4 is sporty and less quiet and smooth.

It is a beautiful car with great power (for the engine) and a comfortable ride.

We are very impressed with the smooth, comfortable ride and great performance.

A huge improvement in comfort and features over my 2005 model CR-V. Good integration of driver controls and safety monitors.

It is very comfy and came with all the extra features and safety equipment I wanted as standard equipment.

2021 Honda Pilot

The only feature on this vehicle I do not like is that automatic collision control is literally slams on the brakes when you come up on a vehicle and then it hesitates to accelerate.

If you want to continue with normal idle at a stop, you have to keep a light foot on the break.

acceleration

Average with horrible transmission going down steep hills, slow acceleration.

The looks outside speaks of the function inside.

The cruise control is cool that it will slow you down or speed you up.

but average, once it’s going on Highway speed, is very quiet, sometimes i found driving s little faster than i thought it was.

Plus the performance out of the 10 speed transmission backed by a powerful V6 makes it enjoyable to drive.

With all the new updates and now all trim levels come with 9 speed transmission it seams to be a much better ride now.

I drove from Brownsville, TX to El Paso, TX and let me tell you it was smooth and very comfortable plus it was very economical on gas.

Inside is nicely apportioned, comfortable leather seats.

but with all the comforts and bells and whistles of a luxury vehicle.

Good size excelente engine confortable y reliable brand.

My whole family loves the space and comfort.

This car is so roomy, comfortable, sporty looking, and my kids and I are in "heaven" with all of the USB ports and drink holders.

The 2021 Pilot is very impressive with much improved ride comfort, engine response, safety technology and roominess.

My lab and yorkie have plenty of space and i absolutely feel like I am driving a sedan still with how smooth and tight and sporty it drives.

I have four children and I needed all this space it has.

In general, the car has plenty of room in between seats, also added up some new good features,

It does have a lot of room when you put down the seat.

In fact, it makes us feel like we're in some space vehicle of the future.

My kids absolutely love the entertainment system & having more room for them.

Second row had enough space for 2 car seats and for an adult comfortably.

but liked the bigger engine and more interior space of the Pilot.

family

I personally do not get the soccer mom feel like some people do I really think you need to try this, go drive it and you will see for yourself.

but yet compact vehicle that my wife and my teenagers were able to drive too at a glance I was not to thrill for it but when my whole family stated how spacious it was, well it started growing on me.

The Tourning Trim has everything my family needs.

Spacious for 3 kids --two rows allows us to also transport grandparents or friends.

We love the indoor shade things on the back windows for the kids while traveling, the voice-activated phone system so I don't have to touch my phone, the sunroof with a cover, the camera system while backing up, plenty of power, the blind-spot notification, and the nice comfortable ride.

Looking forward for many years as it sees our family grow.

We have plenty of room now that are family is growing!

2021 Ford F-150

It’s nice to have the Ford pass app with all the functions and information at your fingertips.

all the f150s with the 10 speed have clunky shifting in the lower gears (1-4).

The ride is very comfortable and 10 speed shifts smoothly.

Driving as dreaming car 10 speed and 3.5 dual port injection is one of kind new technologies everywhere .

The comfort and versatility are exceptional.

The seats are more comfortable than the 19.

Very comfortable to drive and great MPG for a 1&#47;2 ton truck.

I needed a comfortable ride with good towing capacity, navigation, and safety features.

Ery comfortable seat and great dash board disply with an 8 in screen .

Seats are comfy, has more than enough space in the vehicle, jas tons of power and drives smoothly.

I believe this truck will be more than I expected  It is comfortable.

Love the comfort and smooth ride
Lots of room inside, seats are to die for.

power

I like the spray on bed liner and pro power generator.

I had some issues with the optional POWER GENERATOR,..and apparently, it's now fixed!?

I’m getting 23 miles per gallon in every day driving and the power of the 3.5 liter Powerboost engine is quite impressive.

The power and off the line acceleration is remarkable.

Between the capability, MPG, power, luxuries, and style.

This truck has plenty of power and very reliable.
