Employee Spotlight: Dionicio "Don" Olaitiman, Honda Tech

When asked what he enjoys most about his work, Don Olaitiman, a man of few words, responded, "I just like working on cars." That's really good news, given the fact that this detail-oriented master tech has been working on them at Island Honda for twenty-two years! Although Don works on more Hondas than anything else, he also enjoys working on a variety of other Asian imports which have increasingly been coming into our service department, recently.

For Civic reservations, call Enterprise's Hana Highway office at 871-1511. Please specify which vehicle you wish to rent. New hours at that location are 7-5 Mon-Fri and 9-noon Saturday. Airport location hours are longer, but airport fees typically apply.
 

Now on DriveLiveTV: The 2010 Honda Insight Hybrid

Honda has brought its Insight hybrid back for a second generation, this time aimed squarely at the Hybrid mainstream. Aerodynamic styling looks sporty, but doesn't short-change occupant space. Honda vehicles have always had willing spirits, and the new Insight is possibly the only hybrid that's actually fun to drive.

The Accord has been known for function and style, but also practicality and reliability. This year, Honda has added a new type of navigation system and even more interior room to its popular sedan and coupe. Carrying over the new, sportier exterior from 2008, this year’s Accord promises not to disappoint.
