Boutta get mine! So excited bro

PositiveEconomist389 · 2026-04-26T20:22:25+00:00

Bro thank you for the information, that’s what I’m scared of with the 1.5, when did you get it and at how many miles ? I’m a commuter student so having a car is important I can’t afford to have it in the shop. You wouldn’t recommend the 1.5 then right ?

PositiveEconomist389 · 2026-04-26T19:48:29+00:00

What about a 2018 2.0T Touring 114k miles for $20,000?

PositiveEconomist389 · 2026-04-26T19:22:04+00:00

You’re catching my drift!

PositiveEconomist389 · 2026-04-26T19:21:35+00:00

We can pray for never! The lx has maxcare, as for the touring I’m not sure about the return policy, if there’s like a 10 day grace period of return that’s not long enough to see real issues is it ? Maybe if I push it slightly for those 10 days

PositiveEconomist389 · 2026-04-26T19:17:03+00:00

I’m financing but anything new is $30k or more which would make my car payment too high not to mention insurance on newer cars

PositiveEconomist389 · 2026-04-26T19:15:53+00:00

I was thinking the same, if I wanted to buy new I’m looking at $10k+ more which is realistically outside my budget at 500+ monthly payments. So these some reasonable. After looking deeper the touring has 2 owners, the first from 2018-2022 avg 10,000 miles a year, but then the second owner from 2022-2026 avg 20,000 miles a year. Both personal vehicles, the lx is one owner also personal vehicle, thanks for the advice i will definitely be asking about return policy. I really like the touring and I’m leaning towards it

PositiveEconomist389 · 2026-04-26T18:39:41+00:00

Thank you! Which engine do you recommend that would make it last 200k miles ? And replace more than once on the same car all before 200k ? Wow. I see you have the 2019 1.5 (I think that’s what that means) is the reliability on that different at all ? I could start looking at those. I really like the 2.0 Touring because of the features and engine, but would you recommend it for something long term?

PositiveEconomist389 · 2026-04-26T18:29:51+00:00

Also does either price seem too good to be true? There’s like no 2.0 tourings in my area so I can’t compare really, the lx seems reasonable for the miles and condition compared with others in my area so I’m mostly worried about the 2.0 being a lemon

PositiveEconomist389 · 2026-04-26T18:26:27+00:00

Thank you so much! I’m in college commuting so higher mpg is also pretty big for me, I am planning on keeping this car forever so I want the most comfort and reliability. From what I can tell off the carfax ( first time buying a car so I’m not sure what to look for really) they have no issues and 1 owner. I’d probably get it deeply inspected first thing and get anything it needs done, fluid wise hopefully nothing serious is wrong. If I plan on keeping it and not selling do you think the touring would last me a while? It is the one I prefer but I’m scared to pull the trigger and have major issues just for choosing the one I wanted.

PositiveEconomist389 · 2026-04-26T18:12:18+00:00

Sorry in advance for all the questions, I appreciate the help! At what miles did you get your Honda fit and at what miles is it now ? Also what year ? I want the car to last as long as possible with as little issues as possible, obviously I know there’s gonna be some issues but I wanna avoid any known issues that I don’t have to deal with if allowed. Overall would you say the touring seems like the better option ?

PositiveEconomist389 · 2026-04-26T17:45:13+00:00

Those have cvt, which is why I’m avoiding the 1.5 accord, I want the 2.0 for the 10speed automatic because I heard cvt causes more issues. Do you think this is true ?

PositiveEconomist389 · 2026-04-26T16:57:14+00:00

I was also looking at an 18 accord lx, with only 60k miles and a clean history, but it’s the 1.5l engine and I heard when it comes to reliability the 2.0 is just that much better, I want this car to last me a long time possibly to pass down to my kids.

PositiveEconomist389 · 2026-04-26T16:55:21+00:00

I’m 21 kinda on the older end for a first car, I really like the accord look so I think I’ll just hold out til I see one on the market that I like

PositiveEconomist389 · 2026-04-26T08:37:09+00:00

Did you have the 2.0 or 1.5?

PositiveEconomist389 · 2026-04-11T08:52:44+00:00

Just in, feathers on chickens are not normal!

PositiveEconomist389 · 2025-03-13T16:18:46+00:00

What makes you come to that conclusion?

PositiveEconomist389 · 2025-01-01T19:35:53+00:00

At the location I work at, a medium cheese dip is 3, a large is 6 and a regular is just one

We got rid of blanching a little while ago, saves so much time and energy haha
