I'm probably getting the Crosstour EX-L in dark silver (Polished Metal Metallic) which comes with the black leather interior. Jerry and I went to another dealership today, chosen by the Costco Auto Program, and I they will sell it to me at the invoice price. Very nice! I drove one again, and it's fast enough but so much more comfortable than the RAV4. I love the driver's seat, especially. The dealership, Weseloh Honda, is independent and very nice to deal with. I am waiting to hear back about the wheels I want to get, to see if they can get them at a decent price. Otherwise, I can get them through H and A.

I want to get back into a daily driver Honda and sell my RAV4.

That was our 3rd color choice after black and white. It's really pretty.

You'll love it - especailly if the voice recognition system understands laid back California girl better than redneck Southern boy. That bitch can't understand a word I say.

I'm not going for the Navi, so no voice recognition for Cali girl speak. I like the black but this car will be a driveway car. Too dirty for black, and hot. I couldn't go for white because it's too hard to see where you've been when you wax it. For me, the grey is the color I dislike the least. Not really crazy about it but I think it'll do.

You can. But you can carry as much stuff as a small trailer in the back. Made a run to Trader Joe's in Atlanta today and carried 14 cases of wine and 4 passengers. The car performed and handled like I was the only passenger.

That's a lot of wine for five people!! Or were you in the passenger count? If so, that's even worse.

Four total - and we could have gotten one more case in.

Trader Joe's is the distributor for Charles Shaw. Very good California wines for $2.79 a bottle.

So you have enough wine for a month or so?

Glad you have found something to haul with your vehicle......besides your A___.


Sorry couldn't help myself.
