Ask Diego Auto · Greenville, SC
Straight answers about cars. Prices and drawbacks included.
I'm Diego Gonzalez Alicata, an automotive sales professional. This site answers the questions car shoppers actually ask me, with real numbers, honest downsides, and a clear "who should buy something else instead."
The rule this site runs on
If you ask a question, you deserve the actual answer, not "come in and we'll talk." Every page here answers up front, shows its sources, states when the facts were last verified, and tells you the drawbacks a brochure won't. When a Honda isn't the right pick for your situation, the page says so.

Known issues by model year, recalls vs. complaints, and what to check before you buy.
