And out of curiosity, what is so bad about a Honda? I understand that they are totally different, as far as capability goes, but as far as small efficient reliable vehicle is concerned, what's wrong with them? You won't see me in a Honda truck, suv, or minivan (unless I'm driving my parent's) but what is so bad about the Accord/Civic if all I need is a tiny effecient thingy? (And the fact their ugly doesn't count)

traded the truck... on the way home in the snow I was cut off by a SUV who decided that getting off at the next exit to turn around took too much time... instead they decided to cut across the median, right in front of me. But at least they were in the slow lane! That way all those speedsters could pass us while I then kissed his bumper... Thank goodness I bought an EX w/antilock brakes... didn't slow me down any but it at least kept me on the road... I got 5 out of 6 digits of his plate, so the SP will hopefully find him... I miss my truck (with its siren and strobes, as well as 4x4 to get me out of that lane) already... no damage, luckily....

What type of car did you buy when you traded the truck?

And I'm sure you won't miss the truck so much once you hit the gas station!

lol I didn't mind the gas, its the maintance that killed my budget. I ended up with a 2000 Civic sedan, looks nice, not pimped in any way. Ended up with the same payments and only a few more months of paying. We'll see how it goes. Can't wait to get back in my Ford, but not until I have some cash laying around.
