So I'm at Ocean Shores with my kids, and we're pulling on to the beach by the Shilo Inn, like 50 million other people. There's barely a small corridor between the parked cars, but we're making our way, heading north. We're behind this mid '90s Accord, semi-riced out. Nice wheels, big "v-tec power" sticker on the trunk, fart can...with four younger guys inside. We stop for some pedestrian traffic, and, of course...THEY GET STUCK! But wait! Two of the guys in the back seat jump out, and they start pushing down on the TRUNK! As if this will help them get more traction, like they have rear wheel drive. Then the driver starts revving the engine, and sand is spraying the guys pushing down on the trunk. It was then I think they realized they had front wheel drive...no lie!

I've had enough entertainment, so I back up and find my way around them....too funny...

 

I never get tired of laughing at rediculous honda owners, rollin around with 3 color unpainted body kits reminds me of the mullet driven 3 color camaro's down south. Ask the next honda boy what v-tech even means. If he can crap out an answer, i'll paypal you five bucks

 

From my understanding, V-tech actually uses a three lobe per cylinder cam. So the old addege, you either have high top end or quick acceleration no longer applies. Either way, almost every company has It's own version of v-tech. What was once innovative is now common. So once again, HONDA SUCKS.

 

I've been trying to think of the right words to post in this thread, and I think you hit it right on the head. It's not like we don't have Our own ricers and troublemakers.

I was just looking yesterday at ads for Accords and Civics for my sister. She has a $10k budget, and wants something with under 60k miles, and something that will be reliable for a very long time. Hello, Honda!

I'd love to get her into a Subie, and she wants one herself, but over here in Spokane (I'm visiting right now), there are just not any used Subies (other than 10,000 outbacks).

So, a big to this thread. A real Subie driver would have pulled out their tow-strap and given them a pull, rather than point and laugh.

 

Now just a doggone second there. " A real subie driver would have taken out his tow strap?". Yeah, I got one in my back pocket. Do you carry one around? It's not like my wagon is a 4X4 pick up. I realize it can go real well in sand and snow and all, but it ain't no tow truck by any means. There were four of them, and they had it under control. I was just so amazed that they were pushing down on the trunk. Similar to the folks that put their chains on the rear tires WHEN THEY HAVE FWD. You don't find that entertaining? I've logged many miles in the Subaru's I've owned and am a total "real" Subie driver, thank you very much. Right now I wouldn't think of driving anything else. Well, maybe an S4 wagon if I had the $.

And BTW, Honda's are great cars. Anyone who doesn't think so is simply not acknowledging the history of what Honda has accomplished. Crap, they are great cars! One can only wonder how well a Honda AWD system would do if there was such a thing.

OK, I'm done...just a little self defense and giving credit where credit is due.

 

Man that "troublemakers" site is hard to read. It also looks like it was designed by an 8 y/o.

 

Dude... watch out what you say! You of all people know what happens when you speak what's on your mind!!!

 

ha.

I was going to say more but won't.

 

i have a 30' towstrap in my trunk, does that make me a hick?
