I've thought about that Jason, but the wifey is wanting a car. We might test drive some Ody's see if she likes them first. I'm all about it, get a DVD hooked up and I sit in the back and relax, where do I sign up? I just really don't want to have to pay a big car note. I'm not sure what Odyssey's are running. Will have to do some research.

Excluding the "soccer mom driving a minivan" mentality, there is no downside.  Cargo space galore with a super smooth ride to boot.  To your point, I can remember many trips when the wifey was driving and i was watching Seinfeld in the second row captains chairs, hehehe.  Best seat in the house.

Quote from: "slipkord"
Well guys, after alot of thought and a year of ownership, I've decided to sell my car.  Like Thien, we are needing something bigger. Having only one car with four doors is becoming tough and with another child on the way it will be even thougher down the road. I will be sad to see her go but considering how clean it is I shouldnt have a hard time selling her *knockonwood*.  The sedan will be paid off soon and selling the coupe will really help in the money department.  I might have some extra $$$ to play with, hopefully will be able to mod again.

I will ultimately take over my wifes Accord (again). If I can find another 7th gen sedan for under $10k I'll go for it, I just hate paying a damn car note.


Cheers,

Jeremy


Well, I've decided to say fuck it to getting a sedan. Going to say fuck it and mod my car. More on this soon...

Grids are excellent, that is if Firestone can balance the tires properly, I've had some bad luck with this store. They rebalanced my tires and now my steering wheel is slanted to one side lol

Ummm, balance issue doesn't cause slanted steering wheel. You need an alignment. One side of is positive and the other is negative.

Yeah, you need to do an alignment whenever you do any type of steering and suspension upgrades like springs, coilovers, and camber kits.
