We bought it in July 1990 just after Rhett's 8th birthday. The roof rack Rhett alluded to was used to carry out camping gear the year we went to Waterton National Park(where howling winds almost uprooted our tent with us in it!) That was also the first year we went to Waterfowl Lakes in Banff which began a family tradition of camping and hiking in the mountains (although we tended to use bigger cars on future camping trips). The Honda was also a perfect car for taking my mother to Bingo - this particular model is taller and more upright than a normal Civic sedan or hatchback - made for much easier entrance and exit for someone with arthritis. A lot of other cars passed through our family while we owned the Civic but none suited our personalities better - unless we were headed off on a long trip it was always the car of choice. Like Rhett I am truly sad that it will no longer be part of our family - it has served us better than we could have ever imagined. In a lot of ways the Civic was a perfect car for our family.
