Too much plastic on them city slicker grocery getters put out by honda.
I got a 1996 3/4 ton Chevy truck, I can beat the living daylights out of it and it will come back for more. Its had several random issues (starter, door handle broke, windshield randomly cracked) but its a tank. Ive got into an accident with a light pole, and just knocked it over. It screwed up the bed, and would probably be a few grand to have body work done, but I can get a new bed for a few hundred.

I had some people screw with my truck over homecomming week at school, I dont know who, but it was full of ballons, female products, and other stuff, it had a poster on it that said "You may be built Ford tough, but we, are like a rock".

I'd fight fire with fire on that one. You just don't mess with a guys truck, it's sacred ground.

Tom, at 62 I'm still not ready for one of those big lumbering "cloud mobiles." I have a 1987 Trans Am 350 with a five speed and it is just too much fun. I think sometimes my wife wishes I had some other toy to drive, but that T/A is just too much fun.

Front yard donuts sound like a good idea. I dont know who did it though. I had somebody do it earlier in the week as well, and I DID know who did it. Lets just say I made sure his first stop after school was to a gas station with an air compressor.
