37-15+8+8-15+8+8+8-15+8-15=25

Yep it's a huge difference and lots of savings in gas, but then you're stuck with Civic.

Boo high gas prices, boo!

The 8 was using $300-400 of gas each month!!! Now.... no more premium gas, no more high insurance rate, no more high monthly payment, no more 15mpg, and most importantly..... NO MORE FUN!!!!!

First thing i've gotta do is tint the civic windows DARK so nobody will see me driving it

It still puzzles me why honda replaced my old car a 2001 civic HX with the hybrid that got less mileage. When I gave my old car to my mom, I drive it from Florida to Oregon and averaged 52 mpg all the way there. with 180,000 miles on it.

The HX only cost 12,700 OTD taxes and all. Including 1K to install AC.

it's still going strong, and everytime I visit, I tell her I want it back now that gas costs so damn much.

It's alright man, you did the right thing. I don't know how it is over there but, here you just sit in traffic. So not like it's all that fun anyway. At least you aren't married to your car now.
