I had heard great things about Honda, so I started looked for a used Honda. I noticed there were none on the car lots. The dealer said they didn't get many used Honda's because people tended to keep them. I totally see why. This car has great gas mileage. I easily get 35 miles to the gallon. But the difference from other cars is I am not giving anything up in style or comfort to get that kind of gas mileage. The style of the car is very sleek and sporty. It is extremely comfortable to drive. It handles great. I love how quiet the cabin is compared to other comparable vehicles. I am also impressed with all the features and technology used in my Civic. I would have never thought I would get all the features I have for such a low price. I love that it is Bluetooth capable. The hands-free features come in handy. The leg room is great even in the back seat. We can easily fit five adults comfortably in my car for a trip. My daughter is a competitive gymnast, so we travel quite a bit. We love taking our Honda Civic on our trips. We have plenty of trunk space for all our luggage, are comfortable for long trips, and will get great gas mileage. We even have room to bring along teammates who need a ride. I also love the key fob to open and lock my car easily. I also like that the car warns me of low pressure in my tires. I recently had a flat tire. I was so thankful for my warning. It allowed me to find somewhere safe to check on my tires.

Ever since I drove a Honda for a company car 20 years ago, I have always driven Hondas. I never have any problems with them, and they get great gas mileage. I am also speaking of my 2005 Honda Civic because I just bought the 2013 certified-preowned a year ago when the other one got wrecked. I had that one for over 220,000 miles because I initially used it for work travel, and it only broke down once. The time it broke down was a timing chain/belt that broke, and I was told that on most cars that would total it, but on a Honda, it was an easy fix. If that car hadn't been wrecked, I think I could have pushed it to maybe 260,000 miles. This new one I am just a tad upset with. I have never bought a used car and didn't want to, but the price was so much cheaper. I made sure to get a certified pre-owned with 30,000 miles with a 100,000 mile warranty, and I financed it for six years. In September, I took it to get inspected so that I could get the registration and it failed! I ended up having to take it to the dealership, and they said it was an issue with the computer in the car due to an incident earlier in the year when I accidentally let the battery go dead, and I had to jump it. Apparently, this screws up the computer in the car, and it has to be reset. This is what people probably don't know...a nugget. To reset the car, they have to drive it like 60 miles and go 40 miles per hour or under and do a certain amount of stops and such...why? This seems ridiculous and makes no sense to me. It's insane to me that you take your car to a mechanic now, and he has to send you to the dealership...not because he can't work on cars but because he isn't a computer programmer!
