06 5AT TL (only 800 miles) vs 03-04 Honda Pilot

So I'm heading to work this morning, but there's traffic on a two-lane street. Everyone is forced to stay on the leftmost lane because cars are parked on the right lane. So after the light turns green on one of the intersections, there's still traffic ahead so I'm taking off at decent speed (I'm usually pretty light on the gas), then this dumb ass lady honks behind me as to say I'm driving too slow. I'm like where does she want me to go, there's traffic ahead so I honked back. There was one part of the street where no cars where park on the right, so she try to go around me, oh no you don't. So I speed up a bit to avoid it. Funny thing was afterwards I can see hear giving me the impression like, yeah it's on now...LOL. So now the street finally has two lanes and she makes her move on the right and I just floored it. Man this TL can move!!! The only thing is the car slightly pulled to the left when I floored it. Needless to say, she got embarrassed. I actually saw the look on her face when I began pulling away...classic!...LOL. Later I realized that Honda Pilot's actually have a 3.5 V6 w/ 240HP and 242 lb/ft of torque...pretty powerful actually.

I hope I didn't damage my new engine at 800 miles driving like that though.

she must have been embarrased for you, holding up trafic like that. Remember, when you drive the TL, it has to be like you stole it. BTW, a well driven corolla can eliminate a Honda Pilot... have you noticed how much that aircarrier weighs?!?
