Sigh... I'm about to lose my man card

while this is true you also have to consider the money returned when/if you sell the spare car and the money saved by less wear and tear on the primary vehicle.

Damn, you beat me to it. $800 for a set of tires on the truck, I only use premium in it, maintenance intervals are about the same but definitely more costly on a big V8, etc.

On a Honda, **** is practically pennies.

Why are you guys running premium in your vehicles? Unless it's tuned there are no benefits

My wife's car (Civic Si), calls for it from the factory. My truck gets regular.

I'm debating one for a commuter. My schedule has been shifting around and I'm commuting during the peak of rush hour. The F-150 is getting about 11 mpg in traffic. I'm not looking at anything really new, but something in the sub $4k range that I can use as a beater.

I might shed a tear though having a fwd car - avoided like the plague all these years.

First car for me - drove trucks and SUVs all my life. It just got to the point that I was driving a lot and doing almost all of it by myself so I just couldn't justify the FJ Cruiser I traded for the Honda. Never regretted it. Easy on gas, tires, etc., easy to park, generally more comfortable, etc.

My wife Explorer Sport calls for premium, we've put regular in it since it was brand new... LOL

If you're going Accord or Camry ALWAYS go with the 4 cylinder model. Front drive V6 cars suck! Just by comparison I'd go with a Camry or Corolla over an Accord. But I just don't dig ANY Honda except the Element.

No way. Honda>toyota. Found one for right at 3k w/150k miles. Might look at it this weekend.

I suggest a certified high emissions VW TDI. They will give you 40+ mpg and are tons of fun to drive.

How did that car turn out?
