I have a truck already and it looks like my Honda accord is going down the drain after 4 years with it burning oil i believe. Any suggestions?
Wow, just searched google and apparently there is a big issue your Honda model and several others burning oil. I've read some stuff over the last few months that suggests some people think that the lighter weight oil is burning up quicker - EPA has pushed alot of makers to 5w20 and 0w20.

I rent about 15-20 cars a year due to business travel. I always enjoy getting a camry, was just telling the wife last weekend that this would be on my list of cars for the kids when they get driving age in a few years.
I like Toyota's, I've owned 3-4 Honda's and 2 Toyota's so far and like both. Right now, I prefer the styles and durability of the Toyota's. I drive a Tundra that gets crappy gas mileage but moves like a scalded dog.
its a 2008 accord that i bought brand new in 2009, they said no leaks so i am guessing that is the problem since they can't find anything
it was almost out last time after 3000 miles, i have not noticed any smoke but i never look behind me, you would at least think an oil light would come on
Do you have a good relationship with a service person at the dealership? They can usually help fix these issues and can do this on their dime or Honda's dime (sometimes this depends on how much you've spent with them and the type of relationship you have with them).
If not, I'd call Honda and complain. Seems like there is an issue and they know about it and they can fix it.
