I cant say its mine anymore the wife stole it (in reality I traded my 04 3 HB for it full well knowing she would take it for the kid). It fits our needs like a glove without the old man minivan mom appeal. Hope you like the "as artsy as I can be in the gheto of Toledo" pics. :-)











 
itll grow on you fast if you get a woman knocked up lol
 
The only thing ghetto about those pics is the gangsta lean you got going w/ the camera(hi) (jk!)

The 5 is hot! The bright green gauges are growing on me
 
lol thats where the inlaws live on the golf course in a country club, i live in the gh3to for now (red house) until im done with school. I loved the white 3 as well, now im in the non s version the wife wanted when she was knocked up and crazy. She didnt want any features back then and now im stuck in it. BUT, it got 36 mpg driving to chicago so I will shut up until her lease is up and I can get something with a stick and more power.

Ha! How funny. We did the samething. We traded my 04 Strato Blue MZ3 HB for a MZ5 Touring. We needed a bigger vehicle (now that we have two kids) and she didn't want to drive a minivan...
 
When she was pregnant she demanded a 3i (not the S) after I had a 3i as a rental when the 3S was getting serviced. She wanted it in dark blue and wanted no options. So here I am stuck with her car for an unthinkable 4 yr lease ugh! The first time she started driving again she wanted to try out the 5, after that day, she never drove the 3 again.
 
Yeah, similar story here.

We traded cars one day when her car needed to go into the shop. So she took the 3 and never gave it back.

She was pregnant at the time and told me that it was too hard for her to get our two year old in & out of the CRV, so she needed to keep my 3. She rubbed it in by telling me how fun it was to drive.

Then a few months later we traded the 3 for a 5.

So now, I'm stuck with a six year old Honda CRV that has a fun to drive factor of ...2 :(

See that's just the opposite for me. My wife, when pregnant with our second child, said it was too hard to bend over to put our first child into the car seat of the our then Accord. So she got my '99 CR-V. I then inheritted her '02 Accord (lease). However when the lease ran out I did not want another payment so I bought a '93 Subaru Impreza for basically pocket change.

I can't wait to get my CR-V back (when we buy the Mazda5). It's a great, realiable car with quite a bit of off-road range. I often take it off-road for camping, getting to dark sky sites for astronomical observing, even some beach/sand driving. The fun factor is much higher than a 2. Granted you're not going to be setting any world speed records in a CR-V but the same could be said about the Mazda5. Just my 2 cents.
