All SUV/CRVs etc. does not have the road feel of the wagons. I and other drivers call these class of vehicles CNV (Comfortably Numb Vehicles). Great for soccer moms or kid haulers. For the life in me, where did the 'sport' in SUV came from?

Try a Volvo/MB/Audi/BMW wagon and you will definitely agree!
What I have found are rentals are cheap versions of the real thing. I believe GM makes cars differently for sales to rental companies because of the cut rate prices.

I've driven a rental and driven a customers car of the same make and model and the rental almost always feels cheaper built. They usually have a lot more road noises and ride much harsher.
