That 13 year old kid inside just asked me to tell you to STFU.
The sad thing is, you are right. I suspect that a 7 year old Honda is likely to be at leAst as reliable as your 13 year old Toyota and most certainly more reliable than a 17 year old Honda which was built using brand new at the time, technology.
Still not sure what to do but I am still leaning towards that 13 year old's way of thinking. It's a character flaw of mine. Just ask my wife.
The good thing about the G1 is that it's so damn cheap, if I get 6 months out of it, it's paid for itself.
