nice. But really people don't buys these cars for performance. It's really to haul the family about and their stuff. It has good performance and good fuel economy.

its because of americas fat and lazy people..they need more room and more inches...

@coandcaiv Actually it's because we are taller and have more muscle mass. :)

@BW022 we dont have cars with 4 speed gearboxes here in europe :D only 30 years ago

[BW022]

@letsplay14me The review is from 2007. In the mid-2000s most automatics (especially on trucks and 4WD vehicles) were 4 speeds. A 5-speed would have been a major fuel savings over the automatic 4-speed which previous SUV models had. Yes, manual is more fuel efficient, but not well suited to a 4WD SUV. No, 5 speed automatic is not the lest fuel efficient. A 4 speed automatic is. :)

Im not saying americans are retarded (although they are haha), but this guy definetly IS retarded.

He said that honda put a 5 speed automatic transmision to save fuel. It's all there at 3:35. Really ? First of all automatic gearboxes are less fuel efficient than manual ones. Second of all a 6 or 7 speed gearbox is more fuel efficient than a 5 speed gearbox. So when it comes to saving gas, the worst gearbox your car can have is a 5 speed automatic transmision.

@uoyuoy444 okay they may be "assembled" here in the USA but who is ASSEMBLING these cars! not japanese, but AMERICANS!! and if Chevy, Ford, or Chrysler execs would get off their fat a**es then yes I would buy a TRUE AMERICAN VEHICLE, but for now I want a vehicle that will last 1 million miles or more! and the American car companies just cant do that yet

[uoyuoy444]

@aiwa112 You are mis informed. NOT TRUE.

[uoyuoy444]

It is the most misunderstood word in Automotive history. The word is "MADE" The Japanese want you to think that these cars are made in the USA. NOT TRUE they are assembled in the USA and parts are made in Asis and shipped here. Did you know that unemployment rate in Japan is 4% ? You Americans are putting your fellow Americans OUT OF WORK Time to wake up. Look at the USA content on the car. The Honda FIT is 90% Japanese made.
