Hi Folks:

This is my first post here. I am considering ordering the '05 Accord
Hybrid. Some dealerships here in San Diego are taking orders on a
waiting list with a refundable $500 deposit. I have never pre-ordered
a car before like this. Are there any factors you would recommend I
consider in doing this?

One of the things I am mulling over is wondering which options I want.
I am assuming that I will need to have all of these "finalized" at the
time I order since there won't necessarily be any more Accord Hybrids
available for some time if I decide I don't want a particular option
that came with the particular Hybrid I ordered. But "finalizing" this
is made more difficult bc I've been told the new catelog for optional
features for the Hybrid Accord isn't yet available. Any suggestions?

thanks,
Craig

If I drive in Chicago in winter, is there electric heat? If the engine
doesn't run enough, what produces the heat I will need when it is below
freezing??
