Ive learned the hardway that refi doesnt work. Ive seen it and now experienced it. So to help me out money wise I am considering selling my 2010 honda lx insight with 4 kilowatt phev kit, grid charger/ balancer, led and hid lamps and countless eco mods. Although I have never broke triple digits, I have achieeved 96mpg in stop n go and in the mid 80s at highway speeds. I dont really hypermile I just set the cruse control and loose myself in music. The car has almost 60 thousand miles on it and has been cared for by me. Its won several awards in car shows, 1 will include one, countless match box and other toy cars of the model, Honda t shirts, hats. The phev it is a prototype by enginer with a year remaining on its warranty and the car also has the extended warranty on it. This includes the car as is, which is a good thing as it will be the same setup as I drive daily 60 miles. I will just remove my loose items in the ash tray and arm rest. You will get my radio, hd radio, sg2,both shop manuals and new state inspection. I will also assist with support on how to drive and take advantage of the phev kit, hybrid IMA system. I am asking 15 thousand, but an OBO. I plan on making this formal through ebay in a month or so, but early seekers are welcomed. I will be driving my suzuki sidekick as my main ride. I hope to soon sell my condo and pick up mroe hours at work if not a second job. I need money to fix up my condo as I didnt take care of it, crashed there several nights a week, drinked til I passed out and woke up the next morning on the couch and took on the day with work and my dads failing health.

Man, can't believe you're having to sell your pride & joy. That's a shame. Sorry you've hit such a rough patch in your life's road lately. Hope it all works out for you soon. |

Dont worry, the suzuki is 4wd. I can always disconnect the front drive shaft, install a golf cart motor, controller and battery pack and make a redneck hybrid.  Honestly, after driving one, Ive learned how to milk mpg. I was hitting in the 70s on the rental ford focus I was driving after my miner accident.

What metro? I sold it to someone on this forum for his wife who was in dire need of a car and knows how to better care and service them than I. I currently own a 95 suzuki side kick jlx and Honda Insight. The bank owns the title, so you need almost as much as I am asking to get the title or your bank to get the title and you pay them. |
