Located in Burbank, IL. South suburb of Chicago. I've been so happy with my Accord that I'm now looking to trade my wife's 2009 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT for a 2014 Honda Odyssey Touring Elite. Just wish the 2013 Odyssey had the same center console tech package. Then the wife and I could of had the same year!

Thanks. I'll admit I'm not easy to please, but the Accord really had everything I wanted. And being in IT, the tech features really blew me away.

I've burned thru half a tank already and was able to get over 200 miles. So long as I can get 400 miles between fill ups I'll be happy.

My last car as a 2011 Mazda 3 with a 2.5L 4cyl and it got me on average of 22mpg (mostly local). So getting that same effeciency from a 3.5V6 is pretty good. Albeit I haven't hit it hard and kept it out of Sport Mode an on Econ.

I used to live at 79th and Roberts Road in Burbank way back when.. What a trip back in time to see someone from there.
