What ever happened to the solaria? I saw one at the gas station ($60 for a freaking fillup. ) the other day and saw a white one. They don't look bad at all! Not as nice as the CL but not bad imo. You might want to go back to that.

Noticed the thread is already at 2 pages.

$4.05 a gallon and I was driving on E for a few days. I swear, if there was a line of cars, I would have stalled right then and there.

That is very bad for the car. Sediment from the bottom of the tank can get into the fuel system, in tank pumps are cooled by the gas, no gas no cooling. and I am sure there are more reasons.

Touche my friend, good point. Still sucks that his dad is knocking down any suggestion he gives, I think his dad should be just a little bit more reasonable with the selections here. With how his dad sounds, it looks like he's gonna end up with a 88 civic hatch or something. Oh wait, that might still be too sporty.

I am betting there is a reason the CL was taken away. Speeding, bad grades breaking curfew etc.


I doubt his Dad got him the car and took it away just to be a jerk.

He took it away because he was on his 3rd tranny or something and it was going out.

Well, that's what I thought.

I believe there was a post about seeing him driving in a manner of which he did not approve. I also think he thought there was a reason (outside of glass tranny) that they kept going out.

I hope I am wrong.

Alright to straigten things out. I fell asleep at the wheel driving my gmas car. My dad wouldnt let me drive the Ack anymore because he wanted to trade it in/sell it before the tranny went out again. So he did. it had nothing ot do with him seeing me drive badly. It would have been gone anyways. ANd i was the reason teh first tranny went out i gurantee it. An older lady owned it before me and i was in my senior year of high school and i beat it up. PS they never bought the car from me. They bought it as a weekend car for themselves (mom and dad) and i kind of took it over =P. They wouldnt let me drive it at first because it was so "powerful" :ghey: lol

Anywho, they were looking fro better cars for her to drive. She is an art teacher and always hauls stuff places and has to use my dads sequoia. Well now she doesnt have to

they traded in the ACK! for this
http://www.autotrader.com/dealers/dd...=25&cardist=25

nice car. guess still in the family of the Hondas. but definitely not an ack.

to top it all off. I am coming out of the movies tongiht with my girl and another couple. And i see a white Ack with an OEM wing. And out loud i say NOOO. haha. I was like of course I would see one the day mine is gone. It was a 2.2 and had rust and dents all over. Felt bad for it really.


Well yea. As for what car I will be driving when I am even allowed again. I am not sure. I guess my dad will drive the Sonota, so says my mom, although i would love to use that auto-stick a little more. And maybe Ill be driving the Sequoia which gets a whole 4 MPG haha.

Ill let you know tomorrow how much they gave my dad for the Ack on the trade in


not a fun day whatsoever :rippedoff
