2013 Acura TL SH-AWD Advance

News, Auto ·Monday September 9, 2013 @ 20:15 EDT (link)

I picked up my new car today. I confess I opened it up a little after Honey dropped her car off and we went driving around by the cornfields (actually, we went up to the gun range, since it's a nice drive). Accelerates real smooth, and a comfortable but not isolating ride.

My (2000) Toyota Solara will be spending some time in WV; I'm going to lend it to/store it at their place, and they'll be able to use it when they need an extra car. I don't want to sell it since it still runs fine and I may need it some day, or want to drive it on longer trips when we have a house to store it at, rather than taking the Acura, since it gets better mileage. It's worth more to me than the couple thousand, tops, that I could get from it. (Also, I was glad not to let the dealer have the opportunity to take money from me on the trade-in.)
