We have those two cars also, plus the VetteVert...the Vette isn't exactly a daily driver,
so the CR-V is the grocery getter and daily driver, if possible, while the X is trip car if we
are hauling lots of stuff or need more than 2 seats. I obviously "like" the X more; our '03 CR-V
has never been what I thought it would/could be, and it is starting to suggest some niggling repairs
at 6 yrs old and 66k miles.
We will keep both, until the CR-V pukes a bit more, and then replace that for the CEO. I plan to keep
the X for another couple three years, hoping that no major catastrophe lurks, repair-wise. New cars,
for us RetiredBums, are a considerable outlay, and not the trifling decision we had when we had 2 big
incomes rolling in over the transom.
I hear the OP on his dilemma...if the CR-V does what you need, then I would think tossing it now or,
more towards the GreatWhiteNorth "winter time" when the AWD has a marketable edge, might make sense
for you. Stables of vehicles are fun sort of, but a PIA...
