Lawrenceville, Georgia, United States

Up for bids is a 1995 Honda Odyssey van.

We bought this van used in 1998 with about 35,000 miles on it.  Always garage kept, all services performed as scheduled, timing belt at 240,000 miles, oil changed every 3,000 miles (up untill I started using synthetic oil about a year ago...then every 5,000 miles), ATF changed every 10,000 miles.  I work at a Honda dealership in the parts department, so only Honda parts have been installed since I have owned this van.  What I couldn't do myself mechanically, one of our technicians did the work. 

Accessories include am-fm-cassette deck with single cd player, roof rack with cross bars, Honda carpet floor mats, splash guards, middle seat under-seat storage drawers for the kids' toys and small items, center console storeage bin, and rear bumper protector. 

AC blows ice cold, everything on this van works.  Recent repairs include new front upper control arms, front struts, rear shocks, front brake pads, and a new head gasket. Still gets well over 22 MPG around town, almost 30 MPG on the highway.  Engine still runs great, transmission shifts like it should, and all engine & transmission mounts are tight.

The bad news...the SRS light came on about the time I decided to sell this van when we bought our newer Odyssey (I wonder if she knew something was up).  The SRS unit needs to be replaced (you can find one used for about $50.00 - $100.00).  The ABS light sometimes comes on, stays on for a while, then goes off.  This has been occuring since about 1999 and I just never got around to fixing it.  I don't know if it's the accumulator, modulator, or one of the wheel sensors.  A deer ran into me back in 1999? at the left front of the van (see pics).  The lights weren't damaged, so I never bothered to get the work done.  The backlight for the radio display and AC control is out, but still displays in daylight.  These are minor annoyances that don't affect the way the van performs.

That's about it.  This van has taken us on vacation every year since we bought it, and has proven to be super reliable (like all the 95-98 Odysseys).  She has survived 3 kids and has held up great!  My wife wanted a newer van, so this one has to go.  Check out the KBB website for values on this van.  I am starting the bidding about where I expect it will sell for, considering the SRS and ABS lights on and the very minor body damge.  I live in the Grayson area of GA and work in Buford, GA.  You can call me to arrange a test drive at (404) 944-0385.  Leave a message if I don't answer.

Japanese automakers ramping production for renewed American sales

Wed, 21 Nov 2012

The 2011 earthquake and tsunami that struck Japan took quite the toll on the automotive industry in that nation. Not content to lean on that tragedy as excuse for slagging sales, the Japanese automakers are planning on a major production expansion in North America. The aim is to reclaim the market share lost from the Tsunami-based dip, and overcome a dollar/yen exchange rate that makes exporting to America unprofitable.
Following the Tsunami, Japanese automakers ramped up production in their North American facilities to compensate, but according to Automotive News, Nissan, Honda and others have all reported plans for still-further increased production in the year ahead. As part of this ramp-up, Mazda will open a facility in Salamnca, Mexico before March of 2014. Part of that increase in output is 50,000 units of a Toyota-badged compact car, which Mazda will produce.
Other Mexican production facilities opening include a Honda plant, which will open in Spring 2014 in Celaya, and a Nissan plant, set to open later this year in Aguascalientes. Nissan also said that it will need another plant in North America within the next five years. According to Nissan Boss Carlos Ghosn, the company aims to raise its stake in the US market from 8 percent to 10, and adding production will help achieve that goal. Even Mitsubishi is aiming to boost production at its Normal, Illinois plant. Production of the Outlander Sport is currently at 50,000, which Mitsubishi wants to raise to 70,000.

Honda shines the spotlight on Project Drive-In success

Tue, 24 Sep 2013

Project Drive-In, a Honda-sponsored campaign to save drive-in theaters across the country, is beginning to bear fruit, as the first theaters have been informed that they'll be getting free digital projectors. Many theaters still use 35-millimeter film, which is being phased out rather aggressively in the movie industry. The move to digital, meanwhile, requires nearly a six-figure investment, forcing many drive-ins to close up shop for good.
The first phase of the campaign saw the public vote for their favorite drive-in, with the top five getting a free digital projector, courtesy of Honda. There's some touching reaction videos of the owners being informed that they'd won down below. The next phase in the program takes place on Indiegogo, where Project Drive-In is trying to raise $100,000 for the drive-in that's gotten the next highest number of votes. If the Indiegogo campaign reaches that figure before its expiration on October 7, it'll make the donation and reset the meter to save another theater.
Take a look down below for the video from Honda on Project Drive-In, and then do yourselves a favor, and head over to the Project Drive-In Indiegogo campaign, and make a donation.

Mugen works up 2014 Honda Fit

Fri, 06 Sep 2013

It turns out the Mugen really is fast. Just yesterday we got our first official look at the JDM version of the all new Honda Fit. In both Hybrid and minty-fresh RS trim, the Japanese Fit is more complexly surfaced and angular than in any of the previous generations. Mugen has apparently been working with the new Fit body for a while, as the tuning house has just released some images and information about parts for the new hatchback.
Suddenly the original Honda styling seems somewhat restrained.
Mugen has crafted body kit parts to work with both the Hybrid and RS models, right from go. Though detailed information is still a little sparse, we're told that parts include: two types of front spoilers, a bumper and a chin spoiler, side skirts, and a carbon fiber rear wing (for the RS).
