That's quite an autobiography. But it's good to hear you like your 'cord. When I decided to retire my '93 Accord I test drove a ford focus, chevy malibu, toyota camry, BMW 320i, dodge stratus, dodge intrepid, toyota corolla, honda civic, mitsubishi galant, mistubishi eclipse, hyundai elantra (what a joke), nissan altima, nissan maxima, mazda 626, mazda 6, mazda 3, and a host of other cars before I finally broke down and came to the conclusion that the Accord is the car of the Gods. I drive a '99 Accord now.
