Many people love their Hondas, but the one Honda I've owned was the

i've got 197,000 miles on mine. replaced the tires a few time. a few

I guess you've forgotten about the two "scheduled" timing belts, water
pump, alternator, CV joints, rotors, porous blocks, etc... Not to
mention the rather aggressive maintenance schedule they force on you
to maintain your warranty. Every 7500 miles? Yeah, right.


Remind your friend of the US press going after Ford in the Explorer
roll-over fiasco.

really? my boss is living in an apartment while his house is being
rebuilt after his ford explorer short circuited and burned it down

That's old news, and should have been fixed in a recall, what, 6 years
ago? Not a secret recall, mind you, but the real thing. Besides, you
don't have a boss, you're unemployable.




Agree on the UAW though... they are corruption defined.

ROFLMAO!!! american unions don't exist.

Tell that to my ex wife, who worked for GM at the Lordstown OH plant.
She's told me the stories about how the workers used to screw GM over
for fun, and then sit back and let the union save their jobs, again
and again. She intentionally shut down the line one day, and GM
couldn't fire her. She knew that, and she and the rest of the union
pukes took full advantage of it. There's your quality control, and
why GM lost another 4.8 billion in the last 6 months.

But live on in your fantasy would, OK?
