Traded in my TSX

So a few weeks ago I decided to trade in my 2004 TSX for a 2013 Honda Odyssey EX-L since the family is expanding and we need the extra room. Dealership gave me $5000 with the car being at 130k miles. On the other hand, we were able to take advantage of the Honda Summer Clearance with 0.9 finance and 2500 cash for 2013 models... plus the dealership added another 1700 off discount, so I don't think we did too bad.

Really enjoy the new van and it's a great ride. Although I can't help but miss my old car and all the memories I've had with it. Probably the best car I ever driven.

Honda makes one of the best minivans out there. Might as well get the trailer hitch for bikes and roof rack for a cargo carrier (came real handy on my RDX for vacations with kids). Once you get use to having all that space, it is hard to go back to a smaller vehicle.

Well, I am driving my wife's car (07 Saturn Aura) as she has the Honda, but I agree, the Odyssey is one of the best mini-vans out there, and plus with two kids, can hold a lot more stuff than my TSX.

I was worried about having a third car being a money sink as I don't really have the space or money having a joy car. Hopefully when it's my time to upgrade I'll find something that drives just as tight as the TSX, but with what I've seen out there, there really isn't much I really like minimalistic features on a car (no gimmicky electronics) but I like having some luxury features and responsive handling.
