Mattbob,

I think youre reasoning is sound. If you need a car to rely on *now* with no garage time...the Honda is a good bet. Fuel is cheaper too. (We tour on WVO, that is the best...but its my hobby to keep the vehicle up and running)

If you are coming to Boston and need a gig/venue or a place to stay on your tour, shoot me a PM.
