kumar,

Look at the leasetrader sites to try and get out of your lease. They have options to get you out of your Honda lease. It's at least an option.

Good luck with your search.

I did talk to them.

They have an option where they pay off the car and come with a new lease based on that payoff. I wanted to put the car on Leasetrader because with the $299 montly payment, it would go quickly. However, once they come with their new lease, Im not sure how long it would take to get rid of it + they want $350ish for the listing.

I think you're right - as a daily it's just killer.

Going great. I got offered another job a while back and made a move to Lufkin (east side of Texas, about an hour west of Louisiana). So, I'm in a much smaller place with a lot more trees, no traffic, and a low cost of living. Sure, I see mullets every day, but I can live with that when I take it all into consideration.

Definitely a big change from Newfoundland - I couldn't golf all year 'round there. And people here don't know what a REAL shovel looks like (capable of carrying half a cubic yard of snow!).

Thread from the Land Rover boards -- and I will admit I understand where he is coming from with regards to the cheap leather etc ..

I test drove a TL when the new one just came out a few years ago. I thought the same thing. I heard little noises here and there. I thought it was just an early production glitch that would soon be worked out, however this seems to be the main complaint on yahoo autos so I guess they never changed a thing. I know cars have become much stiffer in the last 5 years, but the TL reminded me of a 90's car. I had a previous generation TL. It felt pretty solid for the 60K miles I owned it, but the latest TL made the same noises and creeks as my 93.5 GSR. Not a good thing.
