Hehe....that's a joke, right? Be the first time a Honda depreciates more than a "domestic" vehicle. Somewhat of a moot point, though. I bought the Honda because I wanted something I could realistically expect to get 200,000+ miles or 10+ years and keep on truckin'. Probably by that time, I will have spent hundreds if not a few grand less on repairs that I would have with a Silverado or F-150. Had a GMC full-size van that was great and didn't do much other than replace the starter on it a couple of times (150k). Our Suburban's (basis of the Silverado) tranny has already been rebuilt and had the transfer case replaced recently (123k miles).


Magman, what makes the Savage "feel" like it's not going to break from you holding it? Somehow I doubt the "feel" of a 710 is much different than a Savage 110 (the package gun at the time I bought my 710). I found the rounded forearm of the 710 much more pleasant to hold than the squared-off one of the 110. Even though the Savages are known to be accurate out of the box, I doubt there would be any practical difference in accuracy. My 710 shoots well below 2" groups @ 100 yards with some Federal ammo.
