I liked the addition of the 'under the radar' section. It made a good point about good cars that aren't as popular.

My family has all Hondas now. My dad had a 2008 Honda Pilot that lasted quite well until he bought a 2019 Honda Pilot. The 2008 Pilot is now safely in my uncle's care and has take him and his wife from PA to GA multiple times. It's still going. I started with a 2016 Honda Pilot that was a lease and I loved it so much when my lease was almost up I upgraded again to a 2017 Pilot. I went down to FL with that Pilot and ended up with a 2019 Pilot that I now own. I haven't had any issues with my car nor has my dad had any with his. I've driven to FL multiple times and I love my car. My brother and daughter have Honda CRVs. We are truly the house of Honda. I don't see myself in anything else at this time.

I don't care about options, quietness. I'm interested in reliability.

Just bought a 2021 Telluride Night Fall Edition and love it. It’s beautiful inside and out. The tech in it is amazing! Put in sport mode and it feels like you’re in a high powered sports sedan! Awesome ride! The Telluride is so popular In some places there’s 4-7 month waiting period for it

I like the Subaru Outback and Forester. Reasonably priced, reliable, good fuel economy.

Hyundai
Kia
& Mazda have been kicking butt the past few years!

Surprised not to see the Kia Seltos somewhere on the "under the radar" section. Fantastic small SUV with great mileage, and unlike the Kona which is more like a hatchback than an SUV, it has great ground clearance, suspension, and makes fantastic use of its interior space. It feels way bigger on the inside than it looks on the outside. Absolutely loving mine so far!

Avoid SUVs from Jaguar and Land Rover. They break down all the time.

I own the Hyundai Kona for in-city daily use for almost 2 years. My review for this so far is Excellent in energy efficiency, quiet, quite spacious, great safety options and incomparable costumer service.
My husband owned the Ford Fusion for 6 years then traded with the Mazda CX-5. No regret!!!
Mazda feels more sturdy than Kona because it’s a bigger car I think.
We both are big fans of Hyundai and Mazda.

The Kia Telluride & Ford Edge Is Best Choice For Me

[davidwolf]

This is a great review, Dave. I have to agree with all of these makes and models you've mentioned. The thing that truly puzzles me is HOW Honda and Nissan engineers have truly dropped the ball with the continually devolving reliability of these two brands when years ago, they were among the best. What a shame, both for the consumers and the legacy of these two brands. smh...

I ordered a 2020 Kia Telluride highest trim. I can't wait. Thanks for your video it made me feel better buying it.

[AngelsLoveErbil]

Strongly Avoid : RAV4.
Consider: CX5, Telluride, Atlas.
Plus Consumer Reports is not qualfied to be considered. Edmunds is better.

[tameerwilliams]

The Telluride is probably the best SUV to come out lately.

Buddy your are the best doing reviews .!!!. I love the way than you exposed the car .. the pros and cons of the each model, so easy ti understand and give a chance to do my own research ..etc etc. Thanh you so much .!!!😉😉

The Kia Seltos is another alternative to the HR-V. Doesn't ride as nicely as my wife's 2018 Crosstrek, but I find the seats a little more comfortable and it has plenty of cargo area. Rides similarly to what my Soul did, perhaps a little smoother. The FWD version (available only in the S Trim) surpasses most competition in terms of gas mileage rating. Haven't had mine long enough to see how close it gets to the rating though.

I would appreciate this being based on your opinion from your reviews vs having you speak to Consumer Reports. Thanks for all your hard work Dave!

It;s good to see the Telluride as best choice for luxury suv. Kia's luxury flagship is beautifully elegant and posh. Dealers are getting BMW Cadillac, Mercedes, and Lexus trade ins for new Tellurides. That tells you it's market niche.
