Default I can't believe I just bought 3 new Hondas!

I've always been a Honda person. This is the first time I purchased 3 at one time.

I got the wife a 2005 Pilot EX, me an Accord EX-V6, and an LX Coupe for my son as a graduation present from college.

I traded my 2001 Tundra with only 18k on it, and I have a few to sell. I'm still keeping my 2001 EX-V6 as our spare care in case the other son's LX with 155k on it starts acting up.


Needless to say the dealer is kissing my ass right now :-)

I looked under the hood of the EX-V6 and boy has the layout changed since my 2001 EX-V6 !!!

I got both cars at invoice and the Pilot for $500 over invoice.

All accessories were given at cost with no install fee.

Kids!

the wife had a Rodeo before and I traded it for the Tundra. Needed something to hau my motorcycle to the racetrack. Now I have a trailer for it, so we just got the towing package on the Pilot.

We will have one spare car. It's always come in handy. Using the 91 as a spare now when one of my kids has a car problem, etc. They are both away at college, and really need the transportation. Neither live on campus.

I haven't had a car payment in 5 years...guess I'll make up for that now.

Hard to pass up the 2.9% financing right now.

Both sons are Honor Roll students in college. Let's just say I'm pretty proud of them.

The other son graduates next year. I will probably get him a new car also. At this time I will get rid of a spare car, since everyone will have something fairly new.

I earned all thos bags!

It's a 2004 GSX-R1000.

Open track day, anything goes. It's not a race :-) At least that's what they say.

Getting up to 150 Mph going down the straight is easy...slowing it down for that first turn is the scary part.
