First picture looks like a certain Time Lord hijacked the system.

So why can't I log in when I clack on "Comment as" any more? Have to go all the way back to the Account tab. Reckon the writing is on the wall for this segment of the site.

Edmunds killed the popular IL long term blogs that were so full of entertaining mayhem- it looks like they will discard this site because they have found something "much better."
How many times have we heard that?

It happened in my '16 Accord a while back, it was the weirdest thing out of nowhere it froze. Nothing worked and then 20 minutes later it reset itself and worked perfectly, haven't had the issue since and its been about 6 months. I could never get a straight answer from the dealer when I took it in for an oil change. oh well.

I believe I warned about this known issue back before Edmunds' recent Great Recession.

"Consumer Reports dinged the Civic for its "infuriating" touch-screen radio..."

Consumer Reports no longer recommends Honda Civic (autoblog.com)

I remember IL, and its beautiful iPad app too. Killing IL is on par with Acura disposing of the names Integra and Legend for something "much better."

I test drove a new Civic Hatchback this morning and liked it a lot. The touch radio wasn't infuriating and while I'd prefer a knob, when I'm driving I'm going to be using the wheel buttons and while riding shotgun, I'll be using the touchscreen. Seemed responsive enough.
