Curbside Classic: 1981 Honda Prelude

My only experience with Quaaludes was highly memorable. Yet I struggle to elicit any memories of my only drive in a Honda Quaalude. Or did I just dream that (the drive)?

I put about 33K miles a year on them and to be honest, I liked them. They were comfortable, roomy, safe, handled reasonably well and I liked the look of the wagon. The key was to work deal on an extended warranty to cover the inevitable transmission failure at about 85K miles. Other than that they were very reliable for me.

You don't buy a new car every few years.This is simply saturation and terrible horrible third world country level grid infrastructure (thanks greedy exces like at the holiday farm fire where I live)
  • MaintenanceCosts I think pretty much all of the difference between this year and last year is that the right-wing noise machine, facing an audience crisis, has decided that EVs, and wildly distorted claims about EVs and EV mandates, are a good way to to get gullible people angry and start replacing lost traffic.
