    I considered resale when choosing between the Tacoma and Colorado. Also, 0 problems in 12 years on my 2004 Tacoma. I loved my 04. I'll let you know about the 16 in another 10 years or so.

    I genuinely wonder how long Honda will keep the Ridgeline around. The sales were already bad, but now they're down, in super hot truck market.

    Thanks. I have no doubt the .0001% of drivers that ford water will prefer the Ranger to the .00001% of Tacoma owners that ford water will buy the Ranger. But I understand the Toyota front end design will be way more efficient at flipping pedestrians over the hood so they have that going for them.

    It's a Niche vehicle and once the tiny market it appeals to is full there just won't be many sales, wonder how long they will bother keeping it too.

    Since people focus so much on percentage increase or decrease does it mean the Frontier is by far the best truck on the market today? :confused:

    It's amazing that the Frontier still sells as well as it does. I mean, I'm going to be 33 this year, and the CURRENT Frontier came out the year I graduated high school. It's crazy to think about. :rofl:

    I will say this, unlike the Nissan Frontier that puts the Alternator at the lowest bottom of engine, they took a page from Toyota and put it up high. Now all they have to do is figure out how to keep the rest of the truck running seven days a week to qualiify it as a DD lol!

    Cheers!

    Hey to each their own. I'm sure it's a great vehicle, like most Hondas are - but I just can't get over how it looks like a minivan with the back cut out.

    Have not spotted a single one where I live and I’m very glad lol. So many MGM’s tho and I think to myself so glad I didn’t get that color.

    I seriously considered the Ridgeline. Went with a Taco because
    1. Wanted off-road capability.
    2. Couldn't quite get over the Odyssey-like front end on the Ridgeline.
    3. Wifey loves Yotas so it was an easy sell.
    I think the Ridgeline is just about perfect for the typical non-truck person who frequents HD, the dump, recycling center, tows a small-medium utility trailer.

    I've seen very few, and I live in the land of Tacomas.
