New Toy
well as much as I wanted another Pilot it did not make sense.
I ended up getting a 2008 Honda Civic EX-L with Navigation. It is Silver/ Gray. So far it has all weather floor mats. I want to upgrade to HID head lights, add fog lights, add a trunk tray and I just zaino'd it. I got 29 MPG on my tank right out of the dealer(they never fill it up all the way). On my second tank I got 33.5 MPG(Yes I did run the tank almost all the way down before someone starts (j) starts flaming me. So it was a full tank calculation. I used- -dawn dish soap with a 100% cotton hand towel -I then used a clay bar on the car -Washed with Z7 Now that it is down to the clear coat I put on 2 coats of Z2 and one coat of Z6. I am expecting to get about 36-40 out of this car. The pilot is a pig on gas compared to this car it gets like half the gas mileage which didn't make sense for me. Here it is at the dealer Sorry MOD please move to proper place I posted it here by mistake

The civic was one of my favorite cars coming away from the January Auto show in Houston. BUt alas, not quite big enough in the rear seat, though.
Nice looking ride you have. Wave to us Piloteers at the pumps as you go by!
