Greetings! Slow HX, yeah, but like my DX I'm sure it's sweetly smooth and revvy, which frankly makes up for a lot. I'm almost glad I didn't get an HX, what with the pricey O2 sensors and stuff, though I'm also slightly jealous that you got a "better" Civic than I have. Lean burn is finicky but it would be a lot of fun to play with, and I'm sure with its VTEC setup it's still a better driving car than mine. Giving up my Toyota with VVTi for this Civic left a ton of torque on the table.

Atlanta is definitely a rough place to drive. I don't make runs through there as often as I used to, but drivers there treat the freeways like a NASCAR oval!
