2004 Honda Accord 4 door.

Decent mileage, body in good shape, etc.

Second vehicle I have bought from this place. All in all, a decent experience.
 
Congrats.

I'm still running my current ride into the groud. A 2000 Chrysler Cirrus with 185,000 KMs on it.

I'm tired of it.

My next is a hybrid of some sort.
 
They had a 2005 Altima, too, but it had obviously been driven harder than the Accord.

I've been driving a Civic and the Accord just felt more familiar, even though it's a bit bigger.
 
Congrats on the purchase!

I've got my fingers crossed that my current set of wheels lasts long enough for the price of hybrids to come down.
 
Congrats.

I need to buy a car. My mom's letting me drive her Aerostar, but at some point I have to get something. I was hoping my Jeep would last me another five-seven years. Obviously not. I hate the thought of having to make five-six more years of car payments, but I don't have a lot of choice in the matter unless my dad materializes after 33 years and makes up for lost time with an Escalade or something. But I'm not holding my breath.
 
I've come close to pulling the trigger on a couple car deals in the last year, but have held off so I could purchase a Honda Accord. All the research I've done says they're pretty much unbeatable.

I've never driven anything but a truck ('01 F-150), but I'm kinda excited about the possibilities of having a vehicle that doesn't fishtail all over the road when it's wet.

That's what my dad did.

Well, almost.

Hadn't talked to him in almost 12 years, but he helped me get a huge-ass discount when I got my Cobalt. And I get everything I need for my car for free or pretty cheap. :D
 
Did it look like this?

Over/under on how long it takes HH to put the Dale Earnhardt "3" with the halo over it in his rear window?

Whatever it is, I'm takin' the over.
 
I've had an Accord and a Civic -- still have the latter, a 2005 -- and I loved both models. Honda is the way to go.

I'd like a sticker of Calvin pissing on, say, Karl Marx.

That would rawk.
