Some people enjoy the month of February for a variety of reasons, some being Ground Hog's Day, Valentine's Day or President's Day. Some people are sticking with their New Year Resolution and some people, well?not so much. But for Diamond Honda of Glendale, February marks the MotorWeek  "Driver's Choice Awards", where Honda usually takes home a few awards.

Some highlights from the awards was the 2012 Honda Odyssey took its 6th "Driver's Choice Award", this year. 1999 marked the first time that the Honda Odyssey grabbed the "Driver's Choice Award" and the second being in 2000. 2005 and 2006 brought the next two and the last "Driver's Choice Award" that was won was in 2011. Diamond Honda of Glendale is hoping this pattern continues for the Honda Odyssey.

"Beyond great packaging, class-leading fuel economy, unparalleled safety ratings and cutting-edge, family-friendly features, the Odyssey was designed to be fun to drive," explains Michael Accavitti, VP Marketing & Operations, American Honda. "Being honored with a MotorWeek 'Driver's Choice Award' for a second consecutive year confirms the Odyssey remains the best minivan for those who truly enjoy driving."¹

Some may be wondering, What exactly makes the Honda Odyssey the best? And we would that it is the whole package that makes the Honda Odyssey the best. MotorWeek, however, points out three specific factors.

• 1.  Unparalleled fuel economy: With 28 mpg highway, the 2012 Honda Odyssey minivan offers better EPA-rated fuel economy than any other eight-passenger minivan available.
• 2. Unrivaled safety: The new Honda Odyssey boasts what no other minivan does - a perfect, five-star rating from the NHTSA and a "TOP SAFETY PICK" title from the IIHS.
  
• 3. Made in the U.S.A.: The 2012 Odyssey is both designed and manufactured right here in America.
