From the little I've read about them, both seem to be bullet-proof. The Toyota has the V6 engine option, but the niece wants the four-pot for fuel efficiency reasons.
The CRV is the front runner at the moment because it's "cuter".
Does anyone have experience with either of these that might be relevant?
(Her parents are springing for a new - or slightly used - model, so we're looking at the latest versions.)

Seriously, my son and my brother-in-law both have CR-V's and have found them to be good reliable cars. My son's is the first generation, and my BIL has the 2nd generation CR-V (better looking car, IMO). The 3rd gen CR-V's look ass.
