Brought a Fit home

to join my 94 Civic VX.

The old guy still kick's the Fits butt for MPG's.

The new kid is an 09 ORM Sport with Auto. Much more luxo!
It feels odd not to be shifting, but my wife doesn't drive stick.

Gotta go buy stuff for the Fit.

congrats! yah, its funny how old honda's have higher mpg. lol but i think the Fit might have more punch driving around.

in the past low hp was kind of 'accepted' but with fatter people these days, those 87hp high mpg days are long gone.

Long time ago my parents had a honda mower. Was the best mower I've ever used. It was extremely smooth to operate, hassle-free, firedup in one-2 pulls at cold start each time, and much quieter than the Toro's.

I'm glad my mowing days are long gone though. Hahahahaha

Sounds good. The next non-car thing from honda I want to get is their generator.

The noise level vs competition is night and day. . Want to get that as our backup resource for the house.
