When you're an automotive journalist, there are a few questions that you can't avoid answering in social situations. Once you get past the "You mean they let you drive new cars, and all you have to do is write about them?" questions, inevitably the next line of questioning is "What's your favorite?"

Every list of favorite SUVs that I have compiled since 2007 has included the Honda CR-V. Regardless of price, regardless of size, regardless of power, the CR-V works for me on every level. Since I reviewed the 2007 Honda CR-V, I invited Basem Wasef, About.com's Guide to Motorcycles, to review the 2008.
