Used Honda Accord for Sale in Grass Valley, CA

This car does burn oil pretty quickly, which I understand is a common flaw for older Honda cars. I have to check the oil level about once every ten days and top it off frequently. Also, the rubber trim on the doors has faded and cracked off, but after 15 years or so in the sun, I'm not too worried (it just looks tacky). As for cargo room, it does fit a lot of stuff. The only problem is if you have stuff PLUS more than one passenger, in order to fit large items in the trunk, you must lay down the entire back seat rather than half of it. I have been unable to take passengers skiing or surfing as a result of this.

The six cylinder definitely guzzles more gas than my previous four-cylinder Civic. My commute no longer includes highway driving, so I'm suffering with a 14-18 miles per gallon through the city. When I was driving highway, it wasn't that much better at 20-22 miles per gallon. Comparing that to my old Civic which routinely got 28-30 miles per gallon. Aside from that, there have been a couple of annoying things I wish I knew before I bought the car. One was the transmission recall, which mine was taken care of before I bought it, but had I known beforehand, I probably would have gone with a different model or year to avoid the risk of major repairs in the future. The other has been a nagging problem where the car stalls out on hot days in between short trips. I've read that it's a common issue that is often caused by a crack in a solder on the main relay. I put off getting it fixed because the mechanic could never reproduce the problem, so I would always leave my windows cracked on a hot day to keep the cabin temp down a bit. I recently replaced the main relay (really cheap to do) and haven't had any problems (knock on wood), but that stalling really gave me anxiety when I needed to be somewhere or if I was running late.
