BMW gone. RDX gone. Brand new 2016 Honda Odyssey is in the stable.




Crossposted from the minivan thread.

The story of the RDX, for your reading pleasure......

When we were getting serial and I started doing the maintenance on her cars she had a pontiac g6. Overall good car. Had about 130k on it when we got rid of it.

Well one oil change comes. Oil is not on the stick. Coolant low. I think no big deal, :tits: driving car and not maintaining it, just top everything up.

3k miles later..... 2 quarts of oil come out and the coolant is out of the overflow again. It's not smoking. It's not making milkshakes. It's not on the ground, or even on the engine.

We went and looked at cars that weekend. Massives debts were massive (# just :tits: things), but I in no way wanted to do a HG in that car (v6 FWD :nope: ).
She liked the mdx. We went and drove a few... too big. Drove an rdx. Ok we like this. They were all ~24k 2-3 yrs old 40-60k miles. Except this one. Houston commuter car, 3 years old, ~125k on the clock, normal wear for car with that many farts, new tires, new CV's, 16,500. AND they gave us like 5k for the (unbeknownst to them) broke ass G6.

So that's how we got the rdx. :dillerman:

I wonder when Grambles will appear out of nowhere to commend the excellent purchase.

I should text him. IIRC he worked on the door opening mechanism.
