You wanted a car? Gee, sorry...

The new vet is right next to the Honda dealership, so this morning when I dropped off Duchess for her next glucose curve I popped over to the Honda place for brochures. I figured I'd look them over during little breaks in the work day (checking random stuff like turning radius and width numbers) and come back for one or more test drives in the evening.

Sadly, they were out of brochures for all three cars I requested: the Fit, the Civic sedan, and the Civic hybrid! I did get a brochure for the Civic sport coupe, the one car in that range I know for sure I am not buying. At least the body is the same. The gentleman also informed me that they don't tend to have any of these cars on the lot for more than a day. They had a Fit in yesterday, but it's gone already, and there's not a single new Civic sedan on the lot. They've got two coupes and that's it.

Evaluating a Honda for possible purchase might get inconvenient. How odd.

Oh weird. I'm hoping to avoid or completely disable the security system, but thanks for the tip just in case I can't. (I strongly dislike security systems. Mostly, they just annoy innocent uninvolved people. Thus I hope not to have one myself!)

Me too, but as I recall, the security system only came with the remote keyless entry (which I really wanted).

Hrmmm, interesting point. I think it's different now -- the remote keyless entry is one item and the "noise" portion of a security system is a totally different package. Well, I guess I can always pull the lines to the horn! ;-)
