Default Birthday gift for the wifey

Hey folks!

I've always been a Honda man (CBR, Civic, Accord, CRV) so I know that they are just great works. They wifey always wanted one since they came out, so we started researching some relatively local ones. We found this '06 beauty down the road here in Oregon with 48k miles on it and in pristine condition. I knew she wouldn't pull the trigger herself, so I test drove it and purchased it immediately. She nearly soiled herself when I drove her home from work in the CRV and it was parked in the driveway. She thought I had brought it home as a test drive for a few hours until it sank in that it REALLY WAS HERS. I love it, but she won't get the giggles from making that rear end slide until she gets that cast off (I know, I'm a nice guy, but cruel lol). Now there are so many store trips I have to make it's not funny

Thanks for all of the great posts on here, they have helped immensely as I traveled the road for this purchase....soooooooo GEEKED!

Cheers,
Fred from Oregon
