I guess you're right, I should probably find a 73 duster to haul a newborn bay around in as my wifes daily driver. That way we could get 18 mpg instead of 34! Yeah right. At a certain point it makes more sense financially to buy something with great resale value, reliability, and gas mileage. I'm not willing to lose money in order to stay that brand loyal. Ford pick ups have always been good to me, thats why I'm on my fourth. As for the Accord, well,its a Honda. 42000 miles and not a single issue. Dont take this the wrong way all you that have classics as your daily driver, my hats off to you, but I dont think I could afford it. I'm building my as a weekend toy that I can beat on.
