Well.. hmm. Where to start... The dog, she's a mush. Absolutely loves to play. But she will get mean if she senses danger. Even when we don't. She's great.
The car: A/C is something I never use. The strain is aweful.I have to press the gas 3/4th the way down to get the same horsepower as 1/4th the way normally. So it's never on, except for every now and then to lubricate the workings.
The transmission, though, is one of the poorest implemented by Honda, IMO. The 5 speed integra's are really quick. But the automatics have lousy (very lousy) acceleration. I have to mash it pretty hard sometimes to go as fast as other cars. (Not to speed, but to keepup with traffic...
) I'd love to make it a manual...
But if I really had the money... CRV block, Type-S head, and the type-S 6-speed transmission swapped into it would be real nice.
