Yesterday and today, Mrs. Shoe Pilot’s busted ass Honda wagon has been awesome. SO MUCH ROOM FOR ACTIVITIES!!

Last night, I brought home enough electrical supply stuff from Home Depot to do pretty much the entire electrical build out in my workshop, including 150 feet of 4/0 4/0 2/0 service entry cable. That chunk of cable is pretty damn big, and there was also 160 feet of conduit strapped to the roof, and 6 big ass light fixtures in the back.

Then, this morning I went to the supply house and brought home a 21 foot long chunk 4" galvanized steel pipe. The guy at the supply house forklifted it onto the roof rack and I strapped it down. The rack is definitely fucked now, but it held together well enough to get the pipe home. I seriously underestimated how crazy heavy it was when I unloaded it by hand. Gravity made it easy to get on the ground, but pushing it up into vertical is going to be a bear.

Yeah, it’s a wagon. I know it’s supposed to be useful. But I’m still really happy with how useful it is. I thought I was going to have to borrow a pickup truck, and I DIDN’T HAVE TO.

I smile whenever I see one of those accord wagons here in LA that doesn’t have oversized/shiny rims.

I wish that acura kept making that tsx wagon. Might be hard to find a clean one by the time me and the Mrs. need a more appropriate family vehicle. She is leaning towards some SUV/crossover thing.

I want them but a good one is $20k right now. That is so much money. SO. MUCH.

Wow, I haven’t seen one near me that wasn’t hitting the $22k-$24k area.

European only, I’m guessing?

Yep. Asia has a new Honda wagon as well, the second gen Fit Shuttle.
