2003 Honda Insight With Lifetime Ave. Of 62+mpg! Fun And Safe And Economical on 2040-cars
Yarmouth, Maine, United States
|
This is a very GREEN car, as it has gotten more than 62 mpg in the ten years it has been driven. This is an aluminum body with hybrid electric motor to assist the one liter 3 cylinder engine. She doesn't leak fluids, nor burn them nor leak them. There is no rust and when I bought it in July of 2012, she had a 95 rating out of 100 on the index. There are two seats with a large deck with net to hold cargo. The tires have at least 80% of their original tread and the hybrid battery has only 35,000 miles and they average more than 100,000. This car has a new clutch with less than 1,000 miles plus new vapor guard system. These two items cost more than $2.000 and were done professionally. I have another Insight and they each had a "Grid Charger", which gives them a full hybrid battery charge if it's worn down from a lot of stop and go or uphill travelling. So, the lead has been installed and is ready to be plugged into a charger. I'm not aware of any smoking in this car nor does it smell like this happened. I bought this from the original owner and it was to be my second Insight, but my wife bought a new car and I "inherited" her Volvo, so that's why I'm selling this car. We live 10 miles north of Portland Maine. I would be willing to ship the car at the new owner's expense. I'd prefer you pick it up. I would be willing to meet you at the bus, train or jet port. |

Honda Ridgeline to take two-year dirt nap before resurrection
Sun, 14 Jul 2013Three years ago, Honda said there would be no new-generation Honda Ridgeline coming in 2011. In late 2011, when there was still no word on a replacement for the little truck that's been carrying on pretty much the same since 2006, within the space of a month both Honda's US truck planner and the CEO of American Honda said the Ridgeline would continue and that it was an integral part of the lineup.
But that doesn't mean it can't take a two-year timeout. A report in Ward's Auto says that the Lincoln, AL plant that builds the Ridgeline will cease its production in September, 2014 and a new one won't arrive until 2016. That's a walk-back from when the plan was to have the current truck run until a week before the next-generation truck went into production. Even so, Honda still says the Ridgeline isn't going away forever, a company spokesman telling Ward's, "Ridgeline continues to be an important part of our lineup."
2016 is a long way away, though, and we all know how quickly a product line put into a coma can end up suffering fatal consequences. Even though we keep talking about the Ridgeline, perhaps what Honda is actually saying is that the small pickup market is important to them, and they're working on a way to take better advantage of it than the Ridgeline was doing. We'll find out one way or the other in three years.
Honda recalls nearly 10,000 new Civic models over pinched tires
Mon, 31 Mar 2014Honda is recalling some 9,816 Civic LX coupes and sedans from the 2014 model year due to a potential tire problem.
According to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notice, the safety problem stems from an installation problem at a supplier, which may have caused the tire bead to become pinched between the steel wheel and the mounting equipment. As a result, tire beads may have been damaged, which could result in a loss of pressure, a condition that could lead to an increased accident risk, or at least an increased risk of being stranded and late for work.
Honda spokesperson Chris Martin tells Autoblog, "Only about 1,800 of that 9,800 have been sold because we caught it so quickly. The majority of them were in transit or unsold at dealers."
2014 Honda Odyssey sucks it up for our editor
Thu, 28 Mar 2013When we heard that the 2014 Honda Odyssey would be getting the world's first in-car vacuum, we had to check this thing out for ourselves. Called HondaVAC, this tidy little sucker was co-developed with Shop-Vac, and it's actually pretty neat. It comes standard on Odyssey's top-trim Touring Elite model and can be fitted with a wide range of attachments all housed in the cargo area. Honda notes that the vacuum hose is long enough to reach surfaces in every part of the Odyssey's cabin, and that it will even run for a full eight minutes after the vehicle is turned off.
Good thing, then, that Honda chose to show off the new 2014 Odyssey here at the New York Auto Show, as Autoblog west coast editor Michael Harley clumsily managed to spill some snacks all over the cargo area (we tried to convince him to give himself a hickey, but he declined on grounds that his wife might not let him attend any more auto shows). Take a look at the video below to see just how well the new minivan cleans up.
