Born in September 2004 in East Liberty, OH, as a 2005 model, the Civic lived a long and happy life after being delivered to a dealer in Puyallup, WA, most recently commuting between Champaign and Mattoon, IL where it averaged close to 50mpg. Death came swiftly, in the form of a 24' box truck with a distracted driver. The Civic is survived by a new 2013 Prius. Memorial donations may be made to ExxonMobil.
Sorry for you loss. Will donations to Costco suffice?

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
