Yeah... Honda reliability huh?

I was half way home and my exhaust met the pavement...

But it's ok... mi madre just bought a nice truck and got a dolly and pulled it home. I still have to get that fixed though.[:@]

Here's her new toy, 2004 4.7L with 14,000 miles, aftermarket exhaust... sounds awesome:



That's not exactly hers but same color and stuff, her's just has a rhino guard.

Yeah, it's been leaking for a while but it just split right at the cat and fell down and hit the road. I was going to just drive it but there was a decent snow storm that I didn't feel like driving in anyways. Plus with the snow it would have taken me prolly 2-3 hours to get home from that point and I had just moved my entire apartment into a storage locker and was exhausted so I just said hell with it and paid the massive $35 for a hotel room.

Well I'm glad you finally made it back and you're not still stuck in east bumble****. Your mom had good timing buying that truck. So you exhaust basically looks something like this* now, right?

I actually just read in Consumer Reports that the 98-00 Civics have had quite a few problems with their exhaust.
