Yeah, I owned 3 Hondas. The all spent more time in the shop than in our possession. I know I know, I must just have bad luck.....Hondas are reliable..... I don't care. Every one I have owned was horrible. The wife got a Camry from her job and she had the car accelerate at WOT on her and threw her over the curb and on top of some hedges and was still at WOT. We sent the car back and told them to not send another Camry. Toyota said my wife floored the car as she was pulling into the parking space. She had her foot on the brake the entire time. Thus I will never own a vehicle from either company again. If given one, I would trade it/sell it immediately. I won't risk any member of my family for brand perception or loyalty.

Absolutely positively then bad luck. Although Toyota did have that recall with the Camrys and the gas peddle ...

I would LOVE to have another Odyssey.

And I am decently sure Don never ages.
My wife gets walking pneumonia like every year. It SUCKS. She's tiny so it resonates through her entire body and gets her tired.

I have to agree about the priorities to some extent with you and Gordo, we bought a house this year and it's amazing to be a home owner, but my car audio bug is still strong, alive, and kicking

Mine is completely dead, buried, decomposed, and already in use in some potted plant.

I haven't got ANY free time to give it the attention it needs - save for the random installs I do for people.

I thought it had been that way for a while? Since the Bimmer was acquired, if not even before then?

yep, welcome to the south

i'm usually in shorts and a tshirt. it's been very mild so far (as it usually is every winter here). but these next few nights will be the coldest we've seen so far.

and parag no thanks, i rather deal with the scorching heat
