After 2 years and 83K problem free miles, I had the opportunity to trade in my SOP (2003) E for the new Bulldog Red model. Thank you Honda.

If you don't mind me asking, how much did they give you on your trade in? I was at the dealership today waiting around, fell inlove with the Ridgeline. My friend who was with me was trying hard to get me to trade in right now. I said I cant because my E has 73k on it and i would get slammed. Beside, I like the E and the gas milage and I want to take it over 200k to be a cost effective solution for me. If I had more money, I would consider a ridgeline.

U of Georgia's colors are red and black. Their sports teams are called "Bulldogs" and "Lady Bulldogs". Their (live) bulldog mascot is named "Uga". They play football "'tween the hedges".

More than you wanted to know? Heck... more than I wanted to know.

Oh, mine isn't "sports knowledge". It's from living in Atlanta for ten years. College sports teams are virtually a religion in the South and you can't get away from it. When the cross-town rivalry (U of GA and Georgia Tech) is front-page news for a week in a major-market newspaper, you pretty much know where the priorities are.

Got 10500 on trade in.

Use vehicle to cover state of GA, which for those who may be geographically challenged, is the largest state east of Mississippi.

And lastly, yes UGA colors are Red and Black and yes, football is a big deal in the South, and for the fellow who was in Atlanta and now in California, I'm glad Delta was ready when you were.

Glad to see you got into the Bull DAWG red color. I'm sure it will look good with the big magnetic "G" on the doors on Saturdays. How did you bare to ride around in that TN/FL color as long as you did? All DAWGS fans know nothing good comes in orange. Ha! HBTDs!

I'll give you a hint: It involves the South!

<----Sorry about no photo. Was "file challenged" and have to get a photo with smaller file size. Hey electricity is still a new concept here in GA. How do you expect me to learn all this computer stuff when we just got the power going?

I entered Image Gallery with intention of uploading photo and then "oops".

I am so hurt by that remark that folks from the South may be "challenged". I would want to point out that in the photo that was finally posted the following:

1. Note that there was no trailer present (its actually behind the cabin next to the outhouse).
2. A small portion of paving shows up in the photo. (The road is actually dirt but we wanted to impress the club members)
3. There is no refrigerator on the porch. (Moma, who lives with us and our eight cousins, made us move it)

I hope this clears up the matter.

Just shakin that bush boss.......

w00h00! Bringing back an old post, just 'cause I gotta! Go DAWGS!!

The first E that I test-drove was a Bulldog Red 5speed, but after running the numbers, the SOP turned out to be the better deal, so I went with the burnt orange and named her "The Crush." It's not TN (barf) orange, so don't give me any shizzle about it.:D

Anyway, here's a pic I've posted before that was taken in the park. The lighting was a little weird with with the fog and all and gave the Crush a reddish glow. Note the G tag that went on the day after purchase.:D

Love the color ! I've never seen that color b-4 !! :D

Oh and you dont have to tell me how big that state is. I think I walked, no more like ran the thing 10 or 20 times. Airborne training at fort Benning back in the 60's.
