I think that's it.I think I am paying 2 grand over list for the bass model. The labor for install everything they are charging book time. Think they are charging 6 to 8 Hr just for the Turbo.

You ALWAYS have the option to walk away from ANY deal you believe is putting the screws to you. If you stay, then you are OK with being screwed over.

I don't know list on it is 24 grand Turbo 6 so at 30 . add all the other stuff and labor you are easy at 36 grand
.I have not found one any cheaper. But I am sure there are some out there with all the add-ons for 20 grand but they are out of them.

I am going to be an instigator for a minute but this is where Honda falls so short. Dollar for dollar other brands make more bang for your buck

I love my Honda to death but I can't even tell you how many times it has fallen flat while spinning tires in auto because it thinks it's up to speed and up shifts then bogs itself out of power. The sport mode only helps so much.

CVT has one major pro and that is that you are typically always in the powerband and @ 195hp that is alot of fun.

Get the hell out of here with your facts...

Yes I know, and I use it frequently. For the younger generation I don't think they will understand the proper use of the slap shifters and for them purchasing an automatic machine that falls on it's face would put some in an uncomfortable situation.

If Honda really wanted to make it more capable they could use wheel speed sensors in the front that coordinate with the rear for proper shifts in a true automatic mode. I am not sure if i4WD is capable of that but my machine is a deluxe.

Dadgum. Anyone that ain't capable of downshifting, needs to take up knitting ...... lol

Right!

Maybe those "safe space" folks need to switch over to a rubber band machine and leave the machines that require actual driving and shifting skills to the non man bun crowd. Wouldn't want them to be "uncomfortable". 🤣

I wouldn't argue with either but it's the unfortunate path the consumer is taking. Same concept goes for cars becoming electric. Give it a few more years and it will all be standard.

Did not know they had a automatic transmission. Maybe that why they cost so much.

Funny thats exactly how I feel!! For getting started of on the wrong foot in the beginning it seems we share a lot of the same thoughts! Let me know if you get the specs we was talking about.

Yep, I was definitely a dick head. I honestly thought your post in the other thread was you coming here to tell us all what a POS your new Talon was. I took it the wrong way and I apologize for that.

I called DCR a couple times and haven't gotten anyone to pick up the phone yet. Hopefully they are willing to share all that info, if so I'll pass it on.
