But I did sip some water .....

The Kool-Aid that makes one buy an EV, I bought a Hybrid CRV.  Through a windfall, we decided to trade in our 2017 CRV with 51,000 miles in favor of something new.  2025 CRV Hybrid.  Dark blue metallic with black wheels (they're growwing on me).  

White on is the one we traded in, got $15k for it even though Kelly & BADA say $18-$20k.  I told the guy with Tariffs coming, it will be Covid all over, no new cars so the price of good used ones go way up.  Salesman tells me they're made in America.  Insert hairy eyeball here.

I like the charcoal leather with orange stitching.

The window sticker should tell you what the domestic content is - but Canada is considered 'domestic' in that calculation. The CRV is built in three plants in North America: Ontario (Canada), Ohio and Indiana. The fun part will be the parts that cross back and forth, because there's no such thing as a car made in a single country anymore.

But that's not fun. A very handsome new CRV is fun. Congrats!

Only put ~20 miles on, but I like it so far.

My sister has the same one and my dad has the Accord version. They love pulling the energy producing/braking paddles. In fact it has become their obsession of when to use it, lol.
