You want AWD, get one of those, save your money( more money to get a little better AWD, Audi, VW, Acura), time trouble and headaches.
You're so much full of it, it's nauseating. You're exactly the kind of know-it-all hater who is polluting forums like this one about how it isn't worth it, not a real awd system, yada yada yada while you know NOTHING about what's involved. First of all, who told you it cost me so much that I would have been better with a "REAL AWD vehicel", huh ? you have no idea about how little $$$ is actually required. I'd disclose to you how much I ended paying for the project, but you and others haters alike would be even more green of envy.
It took me from thanksgiving weekend to before christmas to get it complete working off and on during weekends. The only fab I had to do was the upper tranny mount, modifying the CR-V's rear trailing arms and rerouting the exhaust.
Oh yeah, and it has been working flawlessly since then (3+ months)
Can I have another cookie now ?
