Who Needs a Hybrid???
Whatever. It's an automatic, isn't it, with a torque converter? The manual
I got with the HX recommends changing the fluid in the cvt every 15,000
miles, which says to me that it is a transmission that is continuously
wearing itself out as you use it. And that will be Honda Genuine
Transmission Fluid too. I don' need no stinkin' automatic, thanks. You can
pry the stick shift from my cold, dead hands.
Cheers,
Earle
