And there ya have it. Case closed.

every little honda here has it. In the valley, where there is no snow, or water.....

They also have the flamboyantly colored tow hitch, which they don't use at all. It's just there to look pretty....

yea or that "internet" thing. Psh it'll be gone in 5 years tops. The new I hear is new concept car a company called FUBAR is releasing. It's an electric motor and 4 seats inside of a giant hamster ball. Only has two speeds though, Go and Go Faster. Think of how much we can save on tires!

Is this a serious question? They're snowboard/ski racks. . . The one in the front has two boards on it. Where is the confusion?

They do that around me as well. A couple civics have them. It came from the euro crowd. Honda's are copying the euro look for some reason. A lot of them are doing the stretch and poke thing as well. It's stupid and ill never understand it but whatever. When the ball joints give up due to the stress I just hope I'm not near them.

I am sure people are aware of what the rack is actually for, we/they are just having fun taking guesses at what it might also be for.

Like a bike or kayak?

There are plenty of ricey things on those two hondas to make fun of like purple paint and red wheels, but the racks. . . have a use.
