I'd like an Accord Hybrid for the room and FE, so my wish to add to the list is:
EV only mode for city driving (up to ~20mph)

Got growing boys and the legroom is getting tight in the Civic!

PS- Dave's right about SS bulbs. My first set lasted 3 weeks (no kidding) but my second set has lasted over a year. YMMV

Hi David,

I am also around Nashville, TN. Infact like Franklin, TN

I have had my New Bulbs for like 4-5 months now and everything is still working with them. I also had them with my 2006 HCH and had that Hybrid for I guess a Year. Also have the Bulbs in our Mercedes and that is going on like 2-Years and all is well.

Fingers Crossed though.

Terry

Check out the Camry Hybrid. Similar size to Accord and full EV up to 42 MPH.

You're right--I've kicked around the idea of trading in for a Camry Hybrid, but...

Not to be coy, but there are Coke people and Pepsi people. We've drunk both, but prefer one over the other. (I've owned and driven both Toyota's and Honda's) but I prefer Honda's.

If an Accord Hybrid doesn't materialize in the next year or two, then the Camry just might be the answer.

-Happy trails!

I'm a Pepsi person.

Historically I generally preferred Honda over Toyota.

But Toyota really did a nice job with their hybrid technology. Far more advanced and capable.

In the end, my hybrid decision overrode any previous brand preferences. So I guess I'm now driving Coke!
