How do we know? We asked you on Facebook where you're going. Here are a few of the responses we got:
Niki: SF to Chicago, my first big road trip ever!
Erik: Tail of the Dragon - in my '96 Integra GSR, for the 4th time!!!
Jeremy: Chattanooga, TN to Kodiak, AL in my 07 TL.
But before you head out, if you drive a TL or MDX, we wanted to remind you of a few features that you might find especially useful.
While the Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™ system has many advantages for driving in inclement weather, it was specifically designed for dry-road handling. On curves, it automatically directs power to the outside rear wheel where the weight has shifted, and then it turns that wheel faster to help rotate the vehicle into the turn—something no other all-wheel drive system does.
When you're on the road in a current-model TL or MDX and feel like exploring a more photogenic path, you can choose the Scenic Drive option. Simply turn a knob once or twice, and your navigation system will bring up nearby scenic drives that you can explore on a whim. Sit back and let your TL or MDX be your guide.
Wish you could take a road trip in a TL or MDX but don't have one yet? If you currently own an Acura or a competitive luxury vehicle, you have an opportunity to receive $1000 toward the down payment or cap cost reduction with the lease or purchase of a 2012 TL or MDX through Acura Financial Services (AFS). For more details, see our current offers.
|  |  With a sleek, aerodynamic design and technology centered around your life, the ILX is a testament to what's possible for a vehicle in its class. With three powertrain options to choose from, including Acura's first gasoline-electric hybrid with eco driving mode and coaching system, the cabin is both spacious and sporty. Premium appointments offer the ultimate in convenience and connectivity, from the standard Keyless Access System with Smart Entry and pushbutton ignition to Pandora® internet radio interface1 and the Short Message Service (SMS) Text Message Function2 which allows you to receive text messages, have them read aloud, and respond with one of six preset replies.
Have you visited the ILX Experience on Facebook? Tyson Hugie takes you on a behind-the-scenes look at the ILX, from his personal blog to designer interviews and videos. He recently visited Acura's state-of-the-art, environmentally responsible plant in Greensburg, Indiana3—one of only three factories in the world to receive J.D. Power and Associates' 2011 Platinum Award for outstanding product quality. Tyson not only witnessed the vehicle's manufacturing process in action, he saw the very first ILX roll off the line. See the video. You can also see Tyson as he makes new ILX discoveries at the 2012 ILX Press Event in Scottsdale, Arizona. Watch the video.
With its stunning features that won't break the bank, it's clear the new ILX isn't simply another entry-level contender. This is a luxury sedan that plays by a new set of rules.
