No Reserve 98 Honda Cr-v Set Up With Roadmaster Tow Bar And Lights, Ready To Tow on 2040-cars

Year:1998 Mileage:245816
Location:

Aplington, Iowa, United States

Aplington, Iowa, United States

Up for sale is my 1998 Honda CR-V with a Roadmaster Stowmaster 5000 tow bar and magnetic lights on it. It is ready to hook up and tow behind whatever you are driving. The only reason that I am selling it is because I have bought a different tow car and I don't need this one also.

 

This CR-V has 245816 for miles on the odometer. It still runs decent, but like any other car that has almost a quarter of a million miles on it, it doesn't run perfectly and has some other issues that I will try to list to the best of my ability. The tires are Goodyear Viva 2's that I had put on about 6 or 7 months ago. I'm guessing that they are about 1/2 tread. I have recently put alot of new parts in it as it decided to quit running on me so I am also going to be listing those as well.

 

In May-June on this year is when I put a bunch of new parts in it including ignition coil, timing belt, spark plugs and wires, fuel pump, fuel filter, catylitic converter, injectors, radiator, water pump and I'm probably missing a few others as well. I put all of these parts in and come to find out, the only real problem was the coil went bad and when I replaced it, I had the plug wires installed in the wrong spots so it was missing. All these parts were about $1000 and I put them in myself. The front wheel bearings were replaced about a year ago.

 

Other then that, it has been a decent car to have for the last 4 years. It gets about 24-27 mpg. The power windows work as they are supposed to but the auto-down feature on the drivers window, doesn't work. The rear windshield wiper doesn't work either. The clutch still seems like it works fine and I haven't had any problem with it. The ABS light is on in the dash. It has been on ever since I have had the car. There is some rust spots in the typical areas (behind the wheels and bottom of the doors). There is a small dent on the roof. The rear hatch handle sticks when you open it. It probably just needs to be lubed up. It lower rear side marker light on the drivers side is gone because it fell off when I blew a tire. There is a screw holding the back bumper cover on because of that same blown tire. The whole car needs a good cleaning.

 

If you have any questions, feel free to ask before you bid and I will answer them the best I can. This car is for sale locally for $2800/obo so I have the right to end the auction early if it sells. I require a deposit of $500 via paypal within 48 hours of the auction ending and the rest paid in cash, paypal or credit card within 7 days of the auction ending. I will hold it for up to 30 days as long as it is paid in full.

Honda, Hyundai and Kia get best word-of-mouth recommendations in US

Mon, 09 Dec 2013

Forget advertising, incentives and, yes, even our excellently crafted vehicle reviews, sometimes the best way for automakers to sell cars is still good ol' fashioned word of mouth. In an attempt to measure this "word of mouth" power, The Boston Consulting Group, a management consulting firm, has created a new study called the Brand Advocacy Index (BAI). The index takes a look at how various industries perform from person to person. Those industries include automotive, smartphones, grocery, mobile telecommunications and banking.
The study polled more than 32,000 individuals across Europe and in the US to come up with the top 55 brands in these various industries. On the automotive side of things, the top brands in the US were Honda, Hyundai and Kia, all tied at 63 percent. On a global scale, Volkswagen and Toyota scored the highest with a 65-percent BAI rating (both in France). The average BAI for auto industry players tallied 50 percent.
As for companies in other industries, Apple's iPhone was the index's top-rated smartphone, Trader Joe's was the highest recommended grocery store, Virgin was sat atop the mobile telecom industry and USAA was the top retail bank. Scroll down for the full press release on the new study.

Honda to lead Rose Parade with hybrid tech

Thu, Dec 6 2018

What are you doing New Year's Day? We're probably going to watch Urban Meyer's retirement bash the Rose Bowl, but we love a nice parade, too. To kick the day off, Honda will be leading the 130th Rose Parade with its own float, an Insight hybrid and an Acura RDX crossover. Not only will Honda be celebrating the new year, it'll also celebrate its 60th anniversary in the U.S. As such, the main float will be shaped like a 25-foot-tall birthday cake. And 60 band members from the historically black colleges and universities' marching bands — which recently took part in a battle of the bands sponsored by Honda — will represent the candles on the cake. It'll also be decorated to re-create the look of the automaker's first storefront in Los Angeles. The float will be called "Celebration of Dreams," a fitting title for a company whose founder Soichiro Honda famously said, "The day I stop dreaming is the day I die." (The first thing you see when entering the amazing Honda Collection Hall at Twin Ring Motegi is a large, circular glass sculpture with the word "Dream" and Soichiro Honda's signature). For the parade, the Honda Insight will serve as the official pace car, while the Acura RDX will play the role of sound car. The float itself will be propelled by a modified Honda hybrid powertrain. The main float will be flanked by five "satellite" floats, each representing facets of the company. These will include a Honda Super Cub motorbike; a floral representation of a 1975 Civic CVCC; a float with crash test dummies and an arch with five stars to represent safety; a Honda Accord, which is built in the U.S.; and a float incorporating elements from the HondaJet to represent the future. The Rose Parade broadcast begins bright and early at 8 a.m. Pacific on Jan. 1. Check out the rendering at the top of the page to get a sense of what to expect. Related Video:

Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014

Thu, 27 Feb 2014

Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.
