No Reserve 98 Honda Cr-v Set Up With Roadmaster Tow Bar And Lights, Ready To Tow on 2040-cars
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 Walking Assist Device begins US testing at Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago
Sun, 17 Nov 2013For years, we've been wondering what implications Honda's Asimo robot could have in the real world, and now we're starting to get a sense of that. Honda announced that it will begin its first US clinical studies of the Walking Assist Device at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago in an effort to provided improved mobility for people who have suffered a stroke. While the automotive tie-in here is pretty weak, this is the first time we've heard about this device since it was unveiled back in 2008.
Weighing in at six pounds, Honda's device is fitted to the waist and legs of patients to make it easier to walk, and the 22.2-volt lithium-ion battery provides enough electricity for more than an hour of operation. According to Honda's press release, which is posted below, up to 80 percent of the almost 800,000 stroke victims each year (in the US alone) are afflicted with limited mobility, so a medical aid like this could have a big impact in the real world.
Honda returning to F1 as McLaren partner
Thu, 16 May 2013Honda must really love Formula One racing, as evidenced by today's announcement that the Japanese automaker is returning to the world's most popular motorsport for the fifth time in its history. Honda has entered into a team partnership with McLaren to develop and manufacture power systems - the engine and energy recovery system - for the 2015 F1 season. McLaren will be in charge of chassis development and running the day-to-day operations of this newly formed team, which will be called McLaren Honda.
Honda says its decision to reenter F1 racing had to do with new regulations for the 2014 season that require cars to be powered by a 1.6-liter direct-injection turbocharged V6 engine paired with an energy recovery system. Apparently the chance to develop this particular powertrain for F1 racing was too enticing for Honda to pass up, which suggests it has bigger plans for the knowledge learned while developing these systems beyond just winning races.
As mentioned, this is Honda's fifth foray into F1 racing, the first being back in 1964 when it participated as its own team through 1968. Its longest stint came from 1983-1992 as an engine supplier, during which time it partnered with many teams, including McLaren, and won six Constructor Championships. Honda then returned from 2000-2005 as an engine supplier for British American Racing (BAR) before buying that team outright and running it as Honda Racing from 2006-2008. Then the global economic crisis hit. Honda's return to the sport will surely be welcomed by fans as its partnership with McLaren should produce a formidable team. It's a strong signal that the company has returned to health after a few tumultuous years, and hopefully its rediscovered motorsports mojo will help yield more passionately engineered street cars.
Honda Ridgeline to take two-year dirt nap before resurrection
Sun, 14 Jul 2013Three years ago, Honda said there would be no new-generation Honda Ridgeline coming in 2011. In late 2011, when there was still no word on a replacement for the little truck that's been carrying on pretty much the same since 2006, within the space of a month both Honda's US truck planner and the CEO of American Honda said the Ridgeline would continue and that it was an integral part of the lineup.
But that doesn't mean it can't take a two-year timeout. A report in Ward's Auto says that the Lincoln, AL plant that builds the Ridgeline will cease its production in September, 2014 and a new one won't arrive until 2016. That's a walk-back from when the plan was to have the current truck run until a week before the next-generation truck went into production. Even so, Honda still says the Ridgeline isn't going away forever, a company spokesman telling Ward's, "Ridgeline continues to be an important part of our lineup."
2016 is a long way away, though, and we all know how quickly a product line put into a coma can end up suffering fatal consequences. Even though we keep talking about the Ridgeline, perhaps what Honda is actually saying is that the small pickup market is important to them, and they're working on a way to take better advantage of it than the Ridgeline was doing. We'll find out one way or the other in three years.
