2017 Ridgeline vs 2016 Tacoma

More BS.
Toyota certs their tow rating. Honda ???

I wouldn't even trust 5K.

Taco was towing 800 pounds more in the test ! That's a lot of soccer balls !

Too bad Honda doesn't cert c clips on engine connecting rods to make sure they installed them.

 

Wow, they should just call the 3rd Gen section in TW, "Opinion Nation".

 

Thanks for the honest and sincere reply. Given that I can get my at the moment without a truck and with the way that this whole experience went down, I most likely will never own another Tacoma, let alone another Toyota product. Well, I guess that's not 100% true since Toyota actually does own part of Subaru, right?! But saying that, if I ever have the want/need for another truck if will NOT be a Toyota, that's for sure.

 

Can anyone answer, what does a Ridgeline driver do if they get a flat tire on the highway with a bed full of mulch/dirt/whatever?

 

Subaru is owned by FUJI Heavy Industries and not in any way affiliated with Toyota International LTD and/or it's affiliates.

 

What about DCLB?

 

Toyota has a 16.5 percent share in Subaru.

 

wish they bought a real truck?

Reach into there purse, get their cellphone and call for help.

 

Actually, you're wrong. http://abcnews.go.com/Business/story?id=4627795&page=1

And where do you think the OEM folding roof rack came from? Was originally developed for Subaru Outbacks and then adapted for the Tacoma.

 

Actually, I remember late last year there was a Tacoma owner on this forum whining and crying about how long it took Toyota Roadside assistance to show up to get this...change his tire for him while he was on his way to dinner with his girlfriend who was also in the truck with him. I gave him flack for not manning up and changing the tire himself and called him out and I actually got banned from the forum for a week because of my comment.

 

I remember that guy. Seemed like a prissy type.

 

And a Tacoma owner...

 

To call for help instead of changing your tire out is def a man card violation. Atleast you kept it real regardless of the consequence, that dude needed to be educated.

So what's worse...driving a 3rd Gen and crying and calling roadside assistance to change your tire while your girlfriend is in the car, or driving a Subaru wagon and changing the tire yourself? Ha!

 

LOL.

When my daughter first got her driver's license, I taught her how to change a tire. She completed a full tire change in the driveway while I looked on. It's come in handy.

She also had a manual as her first car to drive around in. That way if she was out with some guy and she needed to drive his car for some reason she'd be able to.

Sure, she complained up and down about these at first, but years later is proud she has those skills.

 

Well you made that an easy answer. Honestly, if I ever got a buru and got shit for it the hater better be the Baja king or something. They can be rally cars for crying out loud.

We own a Taco and a Forester. Both are worthy.
