Average 6.5. Worst ever was 5.5 with a good (bad) headwind. Also got a little over 7 once with a big tailwind. I drive 70 MPH. That is without towing the toad. We no longer tow the CRV.

We have one in our 2007 33V and I have used it once or twice. Mostly I use the one on the other side. I really only consider it our emergency exit. As others have said it is awkward to get in and out...

It is all supply and demand. As people start traveling more, either by airplane or car/truck/RV upward pressure is put on the supply so the price goes up. It's the American way! Don't you love free...

No, it isn't the wind farms. It is Texas not preparing them for cold weather and being too arrogant to join another grid (sorry). We have plenty of wind farms up here in MN, IA and SD and they do...

But much of the space above the driver's area is not really useful living space. You don't need it when you drive and even with the seats turned around you don't need all that height. In our 2006...

Back when I owned a boat it took my wife and I about 30 seconds to launch and recover the boat. It was humorous to watch others, that apparently had owned their boat for a long time, struggle with...

I replaced the tubes with tubes. Somewhat pricy but they are brighter and a MUCH better color. It was an easy swap. I recommend M4 LED Products (https://www.m4products.com/) for all LED replacements....

Thank you all for your wisdom and advice. We found a mint condition 2013 CRV EX-L with less than 65k miles on it. The seats look new - even the driver's seat. It already had a trailer hitch on it...
