No, you are a blue eyed goddess. Cause a 6-foot person driving a mini/cute SUV, trying hard to be manly looking would look like a goddess (not referring to other tall persons driving this car, this is just for him and his attitude). You can add on all the gadgets you want to your 2005, they won't add to your manliness or lack of it. We have automatics and a manual and I learned to drive a stick shift years before an automatic, each type has its pros and cons. It doesn't make me feel less of a man when I drive an auto. Only persons with inferiority issues should feel that way.
 
Sorry, just can't resist, this is the 2nd time I've seen this from the goddess... Now back to the compressor issues...

"most of FL is below the sea level
  
Not exactly. The average elevation of Florida is 98.43 feet - above sea level. "
 
Only because of the higher elevations in north and north central FL. I lived in the Miami area for many years, and South Florida up to alligator alley is about 6 feet or so above sea level, if I recall correctly.

So, what's your point? The complaints here are about a car part prematurely breaking down. If your heater broke down in the winter and your car only has below-average miles, won't you raise the issue with Honda?

Of course, which still contradicts the OP's assertion that most of the state is below sea level.

Excellent point. But you have to wonder how many car companies would do anything at all beyond the warranty period. Honda's compressors seem to fail a bit too often, but Honda has gone to bat for a lot of people who have posted on this discussion.
 
btw, my wife has mild asthma out here in the high desert of Boise. Apparently a climate change helps, but only for about 5 years, after which you acclimate. So it may be most helpful to move every 5 years to keep your system on its toes.

Hehehe, at least FL still has more than a decade left by your calculation. The way your city is losing its population, you may be the only one there in a few years. Maybe its time to reconsider other places too. Just a thought...

I actually live in Amherst, 3rd populous center in NY state, I believe. At one point Amherst was the safest large town in the whole country for many years, but dropped to No.3 after some religious zealot shot an abortion doctor.
 
As far as I know, population of Amherst has been growing. So, I am not worried about me being the only person in town. With Geico having moved its Long Island operations to Amherst, as well as Citibank, and now Yahoo (in Lockport) I am pretty sure that in-sourcing is what is going to keep the population growing.
 
By the way, even though you are too affraid to fill out your profile, and think you can hide behind the annonymity of the internet, I can see that you are writing from the city on the Buffalo Bayou.
 
So... how's the hurricane outlook for this year?
 
How does it feel rasiing a 4 year old in the 46th crime ridden city in the country?
 
Internet is not as annonymous as you may think. We do a lot of business with the oil companies in Houston, so, we may run into each other, one day

Actually, I really wanted the HR-V, but Honda never brought it here. A Civic with AWD would have been fine with me. I don't need a large vehicle to compensate for anything. Before moving to Buffalo I drove a number Civics and was very comfortable.
 
CR-V is the smallest of the vehicles in Honda line up that offers AWD. Had SHAWD beed avaialable on the TSX, I would have gladly bought that.
 
I have no inferiority complex, nor have the need to compensate for anything. I just see things as they are, without being politically correct.
 
Automatic were invented to attract the female buyers, and any male, short of a cripple, driving an automatic is essentially equal to wearing a dress. But, we don't judge in this country, everyone is entitled to do whatever makes them happy.
 
I also ride, and with the advent of automatic motorcycles, no man with a automatic bike will be allowed no where near a motorcycle rally, or any motorcycle oriented gathering. Only women are allowed in clubs with automatic bikes. But, most choose not to.

Sorry, didn't mean it that way. Should have said "Adonis"!

Not according to the GPS in the car, and it is pretty accurate when it comes to elevations.
 
Driving the length of I-95 only bridges and some patches were above the sea level, everything else was either at or below sea level.
