CMH-PHX $202/ea. R/T
 
CVG-PHX $489/ea. R/T
 
Both on Delta...
 
The absolute cheapest flight from CVG-PHX was $325/ea. R/T on US Air.
 
It's crazy.. I live 15 minutes from CVG and 2 hours from CMH.

I'll have to get rid of it pretty soon.
 
Wow, and I thought I was bad!
 
I am going to buy an SUV at some point this year, just don't know when and it won't be new.

Some before and after pics so we can send them to un-pimp my ride.
 
22's and the banker image don't exactly go together. How many TV screens does this thing have ?

Didn't you have a Camry hybrid? Is this like a yin-yang thing? Where my folks live its pretty common to see a Prius next to a 'burban, I don't know if they see the Prius as buying carbon credits or something.

Pretty cool. I like the dark red, and didn't realize the Si came in dark red. I'm thinking of the old Si coupe that only came in black, bright red, and electric blue. The TSX wheels look nice on the Accord.

I bought 2 sets off Ebay. They look great going down the road. And they have a wider offset and gives it a nice stance from the front. They needed a 3mm spacer to clear the calipers on the Accord but not the TSX. The 17" wheels firmed the Accord suspension quite nicely. The faster you go, the more firmly planted it feels.

16" Wheels by sandman46

I made sure that the 16"ers I got for my '06 Civic had the correct offset and would fit perfectly, as I didn't want to have to worry about spacers and fitment problems. Love the look but felt a slight shimmy at 76 mph yesterday on the turnpike. Stopped at 80 and felt nothing at 74. My mechanice will check it on Friday morning.
Very happy with them and they definitely dress up my LX.

I went this little BHPH lot yesterday to look at a 98 4Runner that appeared to be a pretty good deal. While I was looking at it, a guy who worked there was trying to turn his Suburban around (tight quarters) and backed into my truck. I was less than thrilled to say the least. My truck now needs a new bumper which just makes me really happy. He said he didn't see my truck, I'm thinking "how can you miss a 1-ton black Dodge Ram??"
 
Anyway, the 4Runner turned out to be a reconstruct, not something that bothers me a whole lot. It drove nice, had a lot of miles on it, but seemed to run well. They offered me $1500 for my Sebring and they would pay the shipping from Fairbanks. I think I'm going to pass on it and keep looking. I can do better I think. They had a 2000 4Runner with 135k on it that I also drove, really nice truck, but something gave me the creeps about it, couldn't put my finger on it.
 
I'm pretty much limiting my search to 4Runners, Pathfinders, and possibly Explorers depending on how they are mechanically. Trying not to spend over $5k for this beater. Yesterday confirmed to me that I do need a beater, these Anchorage trips stress me out about having my black truck down here.
 
Would be nice to have an SUV that the dog can go with us in, we can take fishing, down the back trails, just in general use it for everything. Course I still need the black truck for towing that huge horse trailer of mine.
