    Ridgelines are rated to tow/haul as much as a first gen Tacoma. If Ridgelines aren't trucks, neither are first gens.

    My old roommates step dad had one (he still might.)

    Dude had 30 or so motorcycles from either Ducati or Honda. He wanted something that could comfortably fit 4 adults and reliable that could haul bikes/parts. Fits his needs perfectly.

    Not everybody overlands every day like 99% of the people on here apparently lol.

    So you simply judge a truck on if it has a gap between the cabin and cargo area?

    Amen my brotha. A neighbor had Tacos for years, now drives a Ridgeline. Fits his needs. He didn't have to turn in his man card either.

    Meanwhile in WTF, anyone have a spare $100K for a 1978 Toyota?

    Zee Germans haven't made any luxury car worthing looking at in nearly three decades
    His DAC report was shot to hell and he now operates the broaster at the local chicken shack. Gone are the days of piss jugs and sleeping next to refer units wondering if the wife is getting rooted back home.

    Remember they're all dating super models, but in reality some are dragging home the big girl, with dry heels, a gimp and a mole that changes color on the part of the neck one likes to bite into while making out.

    They only sold the wife on the idea of sliders because she's a bit gimpy in the morn.

    You want to call a modified Honda Odyssey a truck go ahead. I'm not going to join you in that.

    Avalanche doesn't have a gap between the cab and cargo area. Who cares if it was built on a silverado frame, not a truck.

    It's a unibody constuction so technically it's not a truck which is body-on-frame construction.

    Urban Dictionary is pretty on point :laugh:

    Truck
    A large vechile presumably with a bed for hauling, moving, towing, or even storing what needs be.

    The absolute worst thing a person could do to a truck would include the following (these are all sins of god, and you will be punished accordingly):
    -lowering it 'til it's an inch or less from the ground
    -adding neon lights
    -adding a fuckin ricer exhaust system... which most of time would just include tips or some other retarded peice of chrome
    -PUTTIN A FUCKIN SPOILER ON IT
    -adding giant ass rims to it, then stretching these tiny ass treads over'em that look like they'll popany second


    A real fuckin truck would include the following:
    -A "body-on-frame"
    -A real fuckin engine, varies from size of the truck (ex. an S10 with a small block, a brand new giant Ram 2500 with a Cummins Diesel)
    -Four wheel drive... because some of us have the balls to get off the blacktop, just for fun or required for certain jobs, which most of you BMW pricks would be afraid of, don't wanna raw up them soft hands
    -bedliner

    optional:
    -a nice leveling kit and/or lift kit
    -some differential lockers with some beefy axles
    -winch
    -good ol' 15"/16"/17" wrapped with some treads depending on what terrian you work/play in (crawlers, boggers, LT's, swampers, AT's, 32"-40", etc.)
    -sway bars, roll bars
    -engine upgrades

    Trucks are great vehicles. They are designed to do things cars can't, and most of them are built solid like a rock. Last long. Work hard and play hard. Besides the MPG... why wouldn't you want a truck?
    "Holy fuck did you that gay ass low rider?!?"

    "Yeah.. what the fuck is wrong with that guy... go buy a ricer!"

    "That pour little 'yota will never get used properly."

    "It's like watching a retarded kid try to cut down an oak tree with a fork."

    "...No it's like watchin a retarded kid turn a truck into a peice of shit."
