    I was reading the sales figures the other day, that Ridgeline is down another 32 or 33 percent, I am surprised they just don't cancel that thing.

    Comparing Tacoma sales to Sierra sales means nothing. They aren’t competing trucks in the same market at all.

    Basically. Wait until the transmission issues start catching up to the market perception.

    The prior gen was never really a mover and shaker for Honda either. I'd venture to say it's because of the price and target market

    The Tacoma's high resale value speaks volumes in this midsize truck category.

    Dude... you want to be Smitty or something? Didn't know this thread was about transmissions, thought it was about sales. You wanna talk shit there are plenty threads on that issue. Let it go bro.

    I am just saying at some point it is going to be difficult to justify keeping it around, 30 percent drops in sales off of already poor sales is not a good thing.

    The differences in customer satisfaction are staggering

    I feel like my neighbors can hear an elated “suuuck my diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiccccccckk” As I speed away in first. Even with the windows up.

    I ain’t even horny, I just like screaming profane things when the g forces kick in

    Kick the dog. Go trade. Find a new hobby.

    You cannot fix your truck by posting about it. It's been tried.
    I had a problem. I traded and got a different truck. No problems.

    Now, lets talk about sales!

    Be careful man, the last thing you want to do is blow a manifold weld. You will have to get a new one from Japan, and that's gonna cost ya.

    I just had the latest TSB done to my truck yesterday due to shift flair and I honestly can't see how it works any differently than any other double OD tranny at this point. I'm beginning to think it may be something other than the tranny that is wrong with some peoples truck.

    Sounds easy. Why didn't I think of that? Oh wait I did and I'd be effed harder on the trade.

    I don't need Dr. Phil, I need a fix or an out and I need it yesterday. Maybe everything's rainbows and unicorns and "yeah sure bring back your 2-month old truck and we'll get you in another one no problem" for you but that's not my reality.
