Replying to: gagrice (May 23, 2006 4:13 pm) The V6 diesel is most certainly going into the Ridgeline here. However, it may also be used in the Legend and MDX overseas.

Replying to: gagrice (May 23, 2006 5:19 pm)  ...not to mention combined fuel consumption of 5.3L/100km (44 mpg)! I would take a diesel over a hybrid of any Honda model. Diesel engines inherently have lower CO2 emissions than gasoline engines, and smoke/particles is no longer an issue on filter-equipped cars with low-sulphur fuel. Add in higher fuel economy, a significant increase in torque, and Honda's recent news that they will have decreased NOx levels to that of gasoline...sounds like Honda has a winner.

Replying to: gagrice (May 23, 2006 5:19 pm) I may be. This strategy makes no sense to me, but I just found this link today. Could be a misquote, or it could be that Fukui said something in his homeland, which he didn't say to the US press. |

Replying to: frayadjacent (May 17, 2006 3:23 pm) How long did you have your Insight? Was it a 5-speed? Did you like it? Why did you get rid of it? Thanks, MidCow P.S.- Very, very seriously considered ordering an Insight, but my wife said it wouldn't have enough power for me so we got an S2000 instead LOL, go figure! |

Replying to: marcb (May 19, 2006 5:27 am) You said "ex Prius owner" Why did you get rid of it? How did you like it? Any problems? Any VW relaiblity issues? I liked their TDI, just not sure bout relaiblity after my Audi reliability experience. Cheers, MidCow |
