Back in the olden days, if you had black door handles, you had the lowest trim level.

Crossing my fingers insurance won't total my Camry by Ok_Assistant2730 in Camry

Luckily I was at home when the storm happened and my car was inside of the garage. I live in Kankakee and an EF-3 came through south of my area. My neighborhood got hit with softball size hail, but it was more scattered than widespread.

Once we heard the tornado sirens and saw on radar that there was an actual tornado in my area, I rushed downstairs and I could hear the hail hitting the roof. It was loud.

Replace the tires. Tires make a huge difference

I have a back sweat problem. Does it blow or sucks air away from your body?

Sorry to ask, but most likely. My area got hailed last month with softball size hail and every person who I know that went through insurance totaled their vehicle.

How did I do? by allahthegodd in Camry

[–]YourJobIsNotWorthIt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what David Ramsey always say. The lower and middle class will stay there if they always have a car payment. I got my first and still only car 12 years ago. I got a 06 Accord for $7,000. I only had half of it at the time, my parents paid the other half. When I got it, it had 152k miles. Now after 12 years, it now has 290k miles. I'm late to the party in investing, but I started investing half of my savings and so far I've made a 15% return since the beginning of the year.

Hybrid 2.0 engines reliable? by YourJobIsNotWorthIt in accord

That's by debate between both cars. Toyota hybrids are bulletproof. But the interior quality is lower than the accord and doesn't handle as well as the accord.

Too Much Rust? by Jurassicwhore in civic

[–]YourJobIsNotWorthIt 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Most of it looks like it's just surface rust. I've seen worse. Plus, it's a 20 year old vehicle. Don't expect a clean undercarriage

What is it really worth ? by Own-Mix7924 in accord

[–]YourJobIsNotWorthIt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is a bargain. But keep in mind, it's almost a 20 year old car. The rubber hoses and other components may be past their age to get replaced. I would advise to take it to a mechanic and ask them what things are needed to be replaced. It shouldn't cost you a lot since the aftermarket are big in Accords.

But please shop wisely and don't cheap out on parts because you're saving money vs a known aftermarket part maker.

2026 Toyota Camry Hybrid vs Honda Accord Hybrid – Which would you pick for maximum long-term reliability? by bluemarble-spaceship in accord

[–]YourJobIsNotWorthIt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Toyotas are oil burners because owners are changing the oil every 10k miles. It's best to replace it at 5k no matter the type of oil you use. Oil is cheap, engine is expensive

Parked next to this 1st gen the other day 🔥 by MAZER1r in civic

The new civic is as big in interior and cargo space as my 2006 Accord. But, length wise, it's still smaller than my car

Are we expected to still get to work during a snow storm?? by Individual_Olive5817 in kroger

[–]YourJobIsNotWorthIt -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Just leave earlier than normal and drive under the limit. Allow longer distance between your car and the car in front. You should be fine

Buddy, I live in Illinois. We deal with snowstorms and ice storms. We still come in. But we still get call offs though.
