    I was so very extremely dissapointed with the ridgeline when they came out with it.

    I'm a fan of Honda powersports, considering them the Toyota of the motocross world (they don't depreciate, are innovative, and bulletproof).

    I always thought that they should expand their automobile division to make some offroad stuff.

    But seriously, the Ridgeline isn't a truck. Many have told me that my 4 banger isn't a truck, but i've proved them otherwise offroad. The Ridgeline's just sad.

    On another note, wtf with the Mitsubishi truck, too? I love Mitsu for the evo...I thought their truck would at LEAST be AWD.

    lol, and the hesitation, too. Looks like he had to stare at it for quite some time to debate whether or not it would drown in 6 inch water.

    I would take my mother's camry through that without hesitation.

    I did buy one hahaha! I do not consider it a truck but a SUV with a bed. It is my wife's vehicle as the Tacoma is mine. It is a great vehicle for people with kids who also want a bed but not a full size truck. I do love the trunk in it as it also has a drain which is great for storing ice which cools a lot of beer! One thing where it does beat my Tacoma is it can carry 4x8 sheets of gyproc and plywood flat in the bed, it also fits my quad. At least it has the Honda relability 75,000 k with no problems (knock on wood!) Call me what you want but I am sure some of you own cars which I think is much worse than a SUV with a bed.

    Love my YOTA's BUT my Dad likes his Hondas.....He got the same high miles out his Accords that my Camrys give me and his Pilot pulled his dam 26' boat and dual axle trailer;Maine to Florida without a problem( I had that drive given to me;) )...He now has the Ridgeline and still moves that boat around with no problems...plus everything else ( his F-150 collects dust:) )

    You are really comparing apples and pears here, Yota really has nothing for the Ridgeline while Honda has nothing for the Tacoma.....

    Not that I would ever buy a Ridgeline...But my buddy has one, and it's really not all that bad. It is a SUV in my eyes, but it does the few "truck" tasks that he needs it for.

    Hey, don't be so harsh on the ridgelines. They are great vehicles for all of the soccer moms who wish their minivan had a bed.
