I think some of you are a little sensitive. :lol: I enjoyed my Neon and for me it was reliable never leaving me stuck anywhere on the road. With over 100,000 miles on the clock it took me all the way from Rouyn-Noranda, QC to San Antonio, TX... Google Map that road trip. But having something go wron...

Me as well... I do not want another.

Been there... done that... time to move on.

Not that having the Neon was a bad time but
I'd like something a little more reliable in terms
of not having something break every few months.

...and so the modding starts. :lol: Well, "mod lite" in my case since I will not be doing any engine or suspension mods. I'm using the USB connector in the glove box to play my music. Sure beats loading or changing CD's. Ordered a cup holder mount for the GPS which gives me the option of placing it ...

Although I am no longer a Neon owner I have a list of parts from memory on my 2001 that needed to be replaced. I have to say that I had no problem obtaining any of them through the dealer. Some had to be ordered and generally arrived the next day. The most difficulty I had was obtaining the hydrauli...

I am biting the bullet and having the timing belt/WP replaced at Aamco ($675) and then just doing the other things to keep it going..and maybe a few little performance/handling things here and there...oh well...Mahalo (means family right???) Good for you! I'm sure you will squeeze more miles out of...

Is that the kid on the left side in the picture?

I think she might need a booster seat to see over the steering wheel at this point... but it is great to get a vehicle lined up early.

What's up guys, Just looking for opinions on my new web hosting company web site. Not sure, weather to change it or keep it? http://www.HostingA2Z.com Personally I like it, but I don't know if it looks professional enough? Spelling mistakes here... http://www.hostinga2z.com/web-hosting.html "unlimi...

One issue...

Has the timing belt job been done if it is at or past the mileage for that.

If not, then figure that into your expenses.

I like small cars but for me the Fiat 500 is too small.

Your rear struts must be completely shot.

so I did the belts..easy enough. Turns out the bottom bolt for the alternator had decided to let the nut fall off somewhere on the side of the road...after 10 years of use..weird! So it had backed out which explains what the odd rattling/worn bearing sound I heard was. So now all is back together a...

Ok guys I have a radiator question....in the next few weeks I'm doing a preventative maintenance and replacing the radiator and components... I have a new cap ...both hoses...upper and lower..Transmission cooler line hoses....thermostat...and just waiting till next pay to buy the Koyo Rad from the ...

You'd see some seepage around the oil pan gasket.

It could also be a combination of leaks from different sources... and that was the issue with my Neon that I addressed gradually.

Slow.

Very nicely equipped vehicle.

Oh cool!

Looking forward to see some "covered in mud" pics after playing in the swamp.

The CX-7 looks good but it had a ton of road noise when we test drove it. The Equinox has a much nicer ride too. All of this is turning pretty moot because my wife's parents want a new GC and they were offered shit for trade. So we will get a great deal on a 2006 GC. It does have 106,000 miles but ...

Honda

Sometime between January and now I gained 28 pounds.

Fuck!!!

Now I have to sweat like a pig and eat like a bird to loose it
so I can be svelte again.

Fuck!!!!!!

The tail light gaskets...really! who would have thought! I am dreading the timing belt/water pump because I live in an apartment so it is the down time as well as the fact that I have to keep it low key and can't lock it up in the garage...figure I will start it on a saturday and try to get it done...

I guess the question is....what else is going to go wrong in the near future and is this car worth putting the effort into it? the clutch and bakes are good ....it develops enough water in the passenger side floor when it rains that I have phone books turned upside down to try to dry it out...it's ...

PLans?=D Yes, worry free and reliable motoring for several thousand miles. :lol: The following has already been done: -tint -wheel locks -body side moldings Considering: -door sill plates -figure out how to mount the GPS -getting an iPod to hook up to the system so I don't have to mess with CDs Yes...

I did consider the Santa Fe, but I don't think I can bring myself to buy a Korean car. I know they've come light years from when they first were brought to the states, but I just don't think I can do it. I know how you feel. Before deciding on the Fit I went to Hyundai and had a serious look at the...

The Fit...

I'm thinking the Fit will float better than the Neon... given it has more air bags.

I'm currently running around in a Cathode Ray Vehicle.

Get a roof rack and put the strollers on top.

As it happens... I have a new 2011 Honda CRV for the evening and tomorrow while my Fit is being detailed and accessorized. Initial impressions... -roomy... for me alone anyways -well finished -peppy -good ride -good visibility -upright commanding driving position -comfortable seats Overall I like th...

5 years: still working and healthy.

10 years: still working, healthy and in a position where I can retire.

Simple things keep me happy.

Why do the lights on my Neon suck... after all it is called a Neon!!!

I'd pick the CR-V over the Equinox all day. Considering their price points and the apparant value, the Equinox is the better choice for us. In terms of trade-in value the CRV will retain more value over the years than the Equinox will. BTW, the Equinox and the GMC Terrain are essentially the same v...

Finalized the deal this evening. This has been the strangest new car purchase experience I have ever had. Sales fellow allows me to take the car out by myself for a test drive... I was gone for an hour. We agreed on a price but did not sign any papers. They help me move the stuff from the Neon to th...
