That's me! After 4 years of a lot of fun and at least $5,000, my wife told me to look for a minivan. Sigh... We do need a lot of room for just 2 people! And a station wagon is just getting too small for the occasional 5 people and ferrying my daughter to and from college. You should have seen the last trip from Ohio, loaded to the gills with a Volvo carrier on top - the inside rearview mirror was useless :)
I know, I could alway rent a minivan for those occasional needs, but the rearview mirror is below my eye level and blocks vision out of the windshield. So I test drove an Odysey and I fit! Horrors! My wife gets to pick the color.
I finally got the car to stop in a straight line just last week with a new caliper and front rotors. Everything but the viscous coupling is in top shape, and I dont have a torx50 driver to replace that with a good one from Strandberg auto (300-350). I am probably going to miss complaining about the AC when the temps get to 95+, and I will have to find a good Honda blog/board in a year or two. I wonder what dealer service on a new car feels like :)
I will still be here and uping the care for my 1995 854T. At least that has onboard OBDII. And a leaky evaporator, of course :)
