You don't need to work with us here at Mungenast St. Louis Honda to know how much folks care about fuel economy these days. Even if you ride a tricycle to work, even if you're one of the last horse-and-buggy holdouts on the highway, as long as you've been riding/galloping past gas stations on your way to the town dairy, it's hard to ignore how prices have risen. The less…

While competing automakers still treat backup cameras like a premium add on, Honda is working tirelessly to ensure more than 50 percent of its lineup features them as standard fare in the 2013 model year. This is a move we here at Mungenast St. Louis Honda fully support and are quite thrilled to see come to fruition. That said, today, we'd like to provide you with an update on the progress.

For 2012, Honda surprised us with an even better CR-V (who knew that was possible, right?) and so far, the reviews have been very positive.  Although the new Honda CR-V comes equipped with more standard content and offers more interior volume overall, the general dimensions of the vehicle remain relatively unchanged - after all, its size has been an integral aspect of its success in the marketplace - it's not too big or too small, and it seats five adults comfortably and offers up more than 100 cubic feet of passenger space. 

The all new Honda CR-V made its debut in September, just prior to the 2011 Los Angeles Auto Show. Many at LAAS were surprised at the direction Honda's award winning cars seem to be taking.

 

However, the Japanese auto maker is being very careful with how they reshape a popular, well known vehicle like CR-V.

Each July, when pine trees sprout on showroom floors and holiday decorations line the walls of Mungenast dealerships, the Automotive Family gives back to the community by feeding the hungry.
