Talking New efficient ride

I retired my old reliable Taurus yesterday after her final 32mpg commute at 235362 miles.

I have acquired through a local dealer, a 1 owner 2007 Honda Civic EX with 106k on the 1.8L engine which I have christened as Vector (some vague memory of angular shapes).

No mods are yet forthcoming as I first want to get a good feel for the car and a baseline of her performance for my normal commute.

Pics to follow when I figure out how to do that

Nice. That should net you a sizable boost in mpg.

Awesome! Let's see some pics!

Also, btw, Kenosha is a very cool city. My gf and I keep going back for little trips to the museums.
