I have no doubt than in general Hondas are good quality. We just got a bad one.
Within a month after taking delivery, we had to bring it in twice for a severe
engine oil leak (1qt per 200 miles). Finally on the third try they replaced the
shortblock at 1200 (twelve hundred) miles, and it still leaked oil when we got
it back from the shop. (Turns out porosity in the block casting is not uncommon
with the Honda V6.) It was in the shop 32 days the first two months we owned
it, making it a lemon under Michigan law. We asked for a replacement vehicle
when they told us it needed a new shortblock, asked for one again when we
noticed the continuing leak, they responded by saying "we don't see the leak."
So since Honda has put us through the hassle of going through an attorney to
get them to take it back, we will never own or lease another one.
Mother-in-law has bought a new Accord every 2 years for the past 10. Once she
trades her current one in she will never buy another Honda product.

Yup, everyone makes a lemon. But, my sister is still driving the Accord my
Aunt bought to drive after high school back in the early 80s. Runs like a
top.

Agreed. It's how the manufacturer responds to the lemon that impresses upon me.
They way they've treated my wife you'd think this is the only lemon Honda ever
made.

Yup, the Democrats made a bundle selling military secrets to and
setting China as most favored nation status to allow this New World
Order, free trade. The Americans that could compete were forced out of
business by the bleeding heart liberals that enforce pollution laws only
on this side of the border.

Interestingly enough, Bush Sr's administration was in power after the Tienamen
(sp?) Square crackdown, when China's trade status was renewed.

Hiya, Bill...
It's obvious to me at this juncture that rather than read the write-up,
which clearly explained how the apparent anomaly was achieved, you jumped to
a most cynical conclusion. You are intelligent enough to know that a small
amount of ingenuity can go a long way. How many times have you
'Macguyvered' something when the parts just weren't available? Anyway, I
hope you won't take it as a personal attack....I just want to point out that
sometimes things are what they appear to be. Even when we can't see the
whole picture.

Yup, many of the protesters were rounded up and executed on the
spot, and still continued China's most favored trade status. But we
didn't hear of the amount of money that changed hands as what went on
under Clinton's watch.

Hi Jo,
Thanks for your opinion. And none of these reposes to me do I take
as a person attack. I just can't help, but point out major errors in
other peoples logic.

Re: Gear head commercial
That's OK, Bill. Everyone else enjoys pointing out the errors in *your*
logic, too.
(Just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean we're *not* out to get you...)
Have a nice day. ;)
