Default Sad News for Me

So, as life takes its twists and turns, we must adapt. Unfortunately for me, that means selling my CRV to my father. He has begun a new job with an 80 mile commute and needed a spare vehicle for his wife to drive while he is away. He will be driving the CRV until it falls apart. As of last week, it had about 175,000 miles on it and running strong. it passed inspection and everything. I am currently borrowing my uncle's 1996 Toyota Land Cruiser that has no A/C, the seat is welded ALL the way back (I'm only 5'9"), and it is QUITE the gas guzzler. It has 225,000 miles and is running really strong. Now I am on the hunt for a new car. I am really looking for another honda. I would prefer to get an Acura TL or an Accord. I'm also looking into the Ford Fusion.... Anyhoozle, you guys have been nothing but awesome since I joined and I plan on remaining a member of HT so I can keep up with your builds and any new builds that may come our way. If I ever make it big, I will be sure to buy a first gen again and make it the best it can be

Thanks everyone.

That sucks to hear. I would make her buy her own vehicle, the hell with selling your just so she can get around. Get her to buy a beater if that's all she needs.

Yeah I already tried that. Its alright though. Its about time for me to upgrade, though. I would like something that has a little more kick. Since my V was an automatic, I couldn't do much "Go Fast" :/

mine is automatic as well. That's why it's the winter beater and i'm going to lift it. I want a 5 speed one for summer, so I can turbo that.

Yeah I have been on the hunt for a 5 speed in the area but nothing is turning up or it has just too many miles for me to justify the cost. I also don't have any room or money to own two cars and texas doesn't get much snow
