I think this will find an audience with the Honda faithful and some new to brand converts.

I could see this moving in numbers if gas prices started heading north of $4.00 per gallon. To be honest, we aren't that far from hitting that number in about another 2 years.

Maybe Honda is betting the same and is out of the box early? Although the power output is lower than expected, it could still become a sales success.

Another BS fake "hybrid" from Honda. More electrics in a DeWalt cordless kit at Lowes.

WTF? Why does it cost $20 big ones to buy a crappy tin can powered by a crappy 102 hp POS engine these days?

WAAAAAAAAAAY overpriced.
