I was thinking about it earlier and realized that I've had my Pilot 2 years today. It really doesn't seem like I've owned it that long. I still enjoy driving it, its been a relatively problem free car, the few little things are more quirks than anything. My only real wish is that it could tow the TT, but I guess no harm in that sitting for yet another summer. The Pilot has just over 40k on it, I only put about 1k miles/month on these days, so the miles are only slowly racking up. I have a 6 year/120k Honda Care ESC on it so any problems it might have will be covered. To sum it up, I'm still very happy with my Pilot and will probably keep driving it for several years to come. Still on the look out for an old truck to pull the TT though so the CCBA membership isn't in jeapardy, lol.  BTW, hubby's 09 Civic (duct taped bumper and all) has been a wonderful car as well, he's very happy with it. He's catching the Pilot's mileage pretty quickly, I believe the car has around 23k on it at the moment and isn't quite a year old yet.

I bought a 95 Civic Si coupe that came in on a trade to keep my CCBA membership active. But it's not for me, it's for my 18 year old sister for her 19th birthday. She better like it! It's been almost a year since I had the Jeep Patriot. Although it's a boring car unless you're taking it on forest trails and in the bush, I find it quite handy to haul around large items, and it's very nimble and easy to park because of it's small size. If I were to replace the Jeep today (which I won't cause I still owe on it) it would probably be a tossup between leasing a new MB C230 and a VW Passat CC. Both are for under $500/month taxes in with about $2k down. But that's just dreaming for now. My aspiration of owning a beater from the 70s has been put on hold too for now  as we bought a condo  and have a baby due in 2 months Looks like after this my CCBA will be dormant for a couple more years

Replying to: fintail (Jul 14, 2009 10:25 am) Most of the old trade ins get bid on by the wholesalers before they even arrive here, so it's rare that a trade in will sit on our lot. I had to jump on this one. Plus the managers won't sell beater trade in cars to us very often as it would be easy to curb them and make money on the side. Bad image we don't want to deal with.
