    • CR-V sets a new September record with sales of 22,268, up 13.6 percent

    “The all-new 2013 Accord hit dealerships in mid-September and our dealers are already seeing a significant increase in customer traffic surrounding the new model,” said John Mendel, American Honda executive vice president of sales. “Combined with the strength of key models such as Civic, CR-V and Odyssey, Honda is once again firing on all cylinders as we enter fall.”

    • RDX sets its 5th-consecutive record sales month with 2,938 units, up 119.9 percent compared to September 2011
    • MDX retains the top-selling Acura title with sales of 4,692 units, up more than 60.4 percent from September 2011
    • TL sedan sales up 29.1 percent from last year with 3,236 in monthly sales

    “Acura’s core models of TL and MDX continue as a driving force for the brand,” said Jeff Conrad, vice president of Acura sales. “Now, we have new products such as RDX setting monthly sales records and the ILX continuing to carve out a foothold as the gateway to our lineup.”

    The daily selling rate (DSR) is calculated with 25 days for September 2012 and 25 days for September 2011. Year-to-date, the DSR is calculated with 230 days for 2012 and 229 days for 2011. All other percentages in release are unadjusted; see table for adjusted DSR figures.

    so this is how they can pay for the cracked engine block in my buddy's 07 or 08 whatever Civic. "Mr. customer of course we will extend that warranty to 8 years and fix it for free please don't tell anyone, see look at how awesome Honda is please buy from us again one last request please just don't go telling everyone our motors and trannies and such do tend to blow up ok"

    Acura sedan sales are about as lackluster as their sedan models are distinctive and compelling.

    They have a lot of mechanical issues, believe it or not.

    Looking to perhaps trade the Miata in next year, and looking at a GTI rather than a Civic SI, as the GTI would be more reliable.

    When a VW is thought of as more reliable than a Honda...houston we got a problem!

      Costco has killer deal on new Dell 16" touchscreen laptop with 32gb ram and 1tB SSD coming up for the holidays.

      For your purposes, this would be more than enough.  BUT it won't play most games because it's an ARM processor instead of an x86.  That said, for all of your regular "office" type work, it will be snappier than anything else at this price point. And it has the 10-key. Don't get me wrong, it's a cheap laptop, but it will be a great performing cheap laptop. https://www.costco.com/p/-/lenovo-ideapad-slim-3x-153-touchscreen-copilot-pc-laptop-qualcomm-snapdragon-x-wuxga-1920x1200-windows-11-home-16gb-ram-1tb-ssd/4000379412?langId=-1

      Over the last six years or so, I have slowly grown my Vinyl collection. This project was an effort to preserve my vinyl playing ways after the original 50 year amp gave out and I could not find a replacement anywhere on earth lol.    Here's some other pics of the progress over the last week or so... After gutting it, I installed some wood slats. For the record, nothing was cut away from the cabinet itself. I steed away all the original components in case I ever come across another OEM amp for it. The only change to the cabinet itself was the paint and stain job. After that, I set did a little "switcharoo" with some old school Sony floor speakers that were put into storage due to a pair of blown passive woofers (top speakers in them were active woofers with the bottom being the passive woofers). I combined the working woofers into a single cabinet and cut out two holes on one end to install the mid and tweeter from "gutted" floor speaker cabinet.           Then that was installed through the back of the console and it barely fit lol.     Here's the rest of the work.

      That's Al Capone. I learned from the visitor center at Hot Springs.Arkansas that he used to come down there with his fellow gangsters to soak at the different resorts and get away from Chicago.  He only lived to forty-eight.  He wasn't murdered, nor did he die in jail.  He had this debilitating illness, and he was able to spend his last years in a mansion on one of those exclusive islands off of Miami.
