I think you misunderstand what ABS means. ABS does not prevent tires from skidding. The wheels will come to a complete stop and will not turn when you slam on the brakes. The purpose of ABS is prevent wheel lock up on wet and slippery roads with low pressure on the brakes, when there is less...
Truecar is a joke. Sales people are quick to bring it up during negotiations because it is to their advantage. After you've agreed to the Truecar price they then proceed to tag nonsense fees and "packages" to the quote. I bought my car 2k below Truecar, by using my own method, which is: get a...

As a Canadian who moved to the US a few years ago, I can confirm that my Honda warranty was honored in the US. Here is an excerpt from the Honda.ca website:
Technically, as is stated in the Warranty Guide that is provided in the glove box of every vehicle sold, the manufacturer's warranty...
