We have retired and are planning on going from two cars to one car.. Please share your experience with either of these two vehicles. I had a Honda I drove for 247,000 miles and loved it. So we are sure about the Honda, just need help with the one. What is your mileage like? We would probably get a 2005 to a 2007. Please share.Thanks in advance for your input.

The odyssey would be the best choice. The odyssey is pretty much the best minivan out there, the CRV is very good but not quite number one in the small SUV market.The honda CRV will offer great reliability, good fuel economy, great fit and finish.The cons are: (in the 2005-2006 model) The AWD system is old and not great. A bit noisy. And the tires are not very good.And the engine is not that exciting. The power is just okay.I have never driven an Odyssey so read a nice review here: http://www.edmunds.com/honda/odyssey...review.htmlFor a retired person who really wants to be comfortable, the odyssey would be a great choice. But as you know, honda only makes great products.

If the car is for both of you only then get crv but if you're planning on being with grandchildren often the the Odyssey would be the one for you.
