I hate Hondas!!!

I figured out years ago that purchasing a VW was expensive,but maintaining it was even more so. The fuel savings would quickly be offset by the periodic maintenance schedule. The only winners are the original purchasers.
I promised myself I would never under any circumstances,buy a car that required "periodic timing belt replacement". Nor a FWD that could "crash the valves if the chain let go".
That criteria really thins the herd.
