There are garage, boat, and tow vehicle ones .... so I figured a daily driver one is in order...
if your tow is the same, post up anyway.

Never thought I would be a "ricer" but hard to beat the gas milage of these little guys
2000 Honda Prelude - bought it from my brother on the cheap - awesome car

2000 Honda Civic (what I had before the prelude, just sits now... but I can't bring myself to sell it, its been so bulletproof for me) *** and in my defense the wing was on there when I bought it**

2006 Tundra that I love. It is not that shiny right now, needs a good waxing. This was taken 2 yrs. ago when I got it, hence the missing front license plate...

I don't have any pics of my sweet ride. Just know that the money goes towards the boat and tow vehicle (aka wifes truck).

1992 Acura integra. Slammed, 5speed, ls motor with type R internals, true cold air intake, drilled and slotted rotors, rolling on black steelies with header and cat back exhaust. The car gets 34 highway, and ZERO respect.

my daily is a 96 Honda Prelude with 200K miles on it. The 30MPG it gets is infinitly better than the 15 that the SuperDuty gets. Although I would rather drive the SD.

My daily driver is this freaking laptop from home! Truck stays in the driveway unless it's towing but when we do go somewhere it's the wife's Durango. Xmas day pic '07 after suprising her with wheels and tires, gotta stay on the good side.

DON'T BUY A NEW ACCORD!!!! Especially an 08. To many problems. I just about got all of mine fixed. Nothing really major (engine and tranny) but:
-AC condenser. Located in a bad spot on the car and susceptible to road debris damage. With less than 5K miles a rock took ours out and the repair bill was $800. I have since installed a stainless steel screen to protect it.
-Headlight issues. The headlights would go dim, kinda like when you go from High beam to low beam and you get the second of dim light. well the car would do that constantly going down the road. going 30 or going 70 didn't matter the lights just kept going dim. Dealer and Honda kept saying that is the way the car is designed, BS. So I installed HID's to fix the problem.
-Rear Brakes needing replaced at 25K miles (according to the dealer we got a lot of miles out of our brakes), Then the dealer wanted to charge me $200 to replace the pads. Every 25K miles we have to change brakes? BS. But according to the dealer and Honda that is normal. BS. So I do the brake change myself for about $60 and less than 30 min of work.
-Fan noises. The interior fan (HVAC) makes noise. The dealer can't seem to duplicate even though it is always present and very annoying!
-Front Brakes. Front brakes started vibrating during hard breaking, and after I did the research to find a Honda TSB that said the Front breaks need the pads changed the dealer finally did something under warranty and fixed them. But they wanted to charge me saying that Brakes are a wear item and not covered so I showed them the TSB and they said Um Ok and did the fix under warranty.
Make sure you do some research. the new accords are crap!!!! I will not buy another Accord again. We bought our Accord because of Honda's reputation in our family (in our immediate family we have had over 30 Honda's, None had problems) we buy an Accord and can't keep it out of the shop.

Alan, just got it last Friday. So far I like it a lot. It seems to have a lot more technology than the Armada did but my Nissan was an 06 too so it's not a fair comparison. It is definitely wider than the Armada and has more room. I like the way the 2nd row moves forward for easy entry into the 3rd row and the automatic 3rd row seats are very nice. The Armada is a really great truck and I'd recommend it to anyone, but i think i like this one better. My sister in law just bought a 2010 Infinity QX56 and I compared them both next to each other on Saturday and it seemed like the Toyota was actually a lot nicer. But that could have been owners goggles. Haven't had a chance to tow yet as I don't have a boat.. sigh.

Nick, I have an 08 Honda Accord Coupe V6 with the 6 speed manual transmission. Haven't had one problem with mine, I think it's a great car besides the tires. I had an 07 civic si before this one and it rides really nice and is pretty quick. Just thought I would chime in considering I've had better luck with my accord than Troy.

^ I really like the look, have had two GREAT GREAT Hondas so for.... I figured I would stick with them... I guess I could just wait a year or two (my other Hondas are fine -- I don't NEEEED a new car yet) and get a 09/10 a little used then.... maybe the 08 bugs will be out.

My car choices within the next year or two are:
08+ accord coupe
WRX (Sti would be ideal but they're more than I want to pay or have been over-molested)
350z
Altima Coupe (look nice and are cheap)
09+ Maxima

Those are all great cars, I was mad that I couldn't get the car I really wanted, Acura wouldn't hold an RSX Type S for me till I got back from basic training so I decided to get those two cars. Both are fun and if I were you I would get a stick, the V6 if you decide to get an accord is quick.

Nick, I have had a bunch of the middle class supercars. M3, S4, TTS DSG, 330ci ZHP, Supercharged A4, A3 DSG. Driving the 2010 WRX right now and having more fun than ever, nowhere near as smooth power-delivery of the cars above, but I think that is what makes it fun and challenging. WRX vs STI, to me it was not worth the extra 10k for the basically the same specs. I am a little jealous of the 2011 WRX with the STI flares and track.

Yea I don't know about the coupes. They seem to have less problems than the sedan's??? ours is an 08 sedan and I am extremely dissatisfied. Currently in our immediate family (not counting our Accord) we have 2 accords, 2 CR-Vs, 1 civic and 3 Pilots. No one has had or is having problems with their Honda except us. I have found a lot of good info on how to fix our Accord on DriveAccord.net. Like I said we haven't had major issues just the little ones that add up and can really piss a person off. And a lot has to do with the dealer and ours suck but they are the closest to us and they are 25 miles away. If you can find a good dealer it will make a Huge difference.
