I had to make the choice when I turned 17 of having my mom buy me the 2005 VP or paying for my own crx, I chose the crx, 
Have them wait and get the new hybrid coming out in 2009 from honda, should be interesting.

The CRZ? It looks a little funky, but I'd probably buy it. I just wish Honda could sell the European civics over here, or soemthing that was just lighter.

Nah, not the CRZ, Honda announced a few years ago they were bringing out a 4 door with insight-like or better mileage in 2009, or something like that.

Oh. I've heard the rumors of a new CRX...but a 4 door insight = either a CRX...or prius...and i hope not the prius (I don't know why, but despite looking alike, the prius is ugly)...

I think I figured it out! The last week, they've been calling me into work...and its a 3 mile drive - scanguage told me I get 33mpg if I take the route with hills, 31 without hills.
Not warming up sucks =[

Engine block heater I meant, but if you're at school then whatever...
With a commute that short you might as well bike, it's tons of fun...

Yeah, bike if you can. Especially during these glorious fall days!! you get great mpg when you bike. Something like 5000mpg. (You have to take into account the extra home fuel used to cook more food since you use up more calories when biking.)

The problem is - its not a flat road. If so, I wouldn't mind biking - previous years, I've biked regularily to the high school and work (7ish miles or so either way)
Its more that...the hills here absolutely suck - I have to walk up them once getting about halfway up...or I just need to be in better shape...hmm.
Don't give me ideas! :P
