Anyone have a new Honda CRV?

My DH and I are looking into trading-in our current truck (Mazda Tribute) for a Honda CRV. I've heard the older ones weren't so great but I test drove the 2003 and I really, really liked it.
Any feedback?
Thanks!

I have a 2002, I ordered it the day it came out. So far, so good, I love it! The mileage is pretty good, it's roomy, and it has a smooth ride. Is your tribute V-6? That's the one thing about the CR-V, the newer version has more power than the older one, but if you're used to a car with a lot of power, you might not love it. Any other questions, ask away.

Thanks SomeDayBride!
My Tribute is a V6 (200hp) but I drove the CRV and thought it had comparable pick-up. The salesman said that they changed the engine to a V-Tech or something and is much better than the old engines - (The saleman is my SIL's best friend's father so I trust him). I really liked that the ride was much smoother than the Tribute.
The dealership actually called last night and said the car was in so now we are forced to make a quick decision (we thought we had at least 10 days to think it over).
I think we're going to go for it
Thanks for your help!
