    TW,

    New member here just got my taco last week. I parked next to a ridgeline today at work so I thought I should share a picture of the two side by side. What are your thought and comments?

    Cheers!

    Looks like a minivan from the front, the ridge line does have some neat features though.

    Its more the front of a honda pilot. Its like honda took the pilot and put a bed on it. I understand the push for aerodynamics but damn honda you could have at least made a new vehicle rather than putting a bed on another one.(unless you're jeep then thats awesome). The first gen ridge was much cooler looking minus the funky bed. Honda got the front right last time and the rear right this time lol.

    I honestly thought the old ridgeline is much better looking as well. More manly at least.

    REAL trucks have an oil burner under the hood, a manual transmission and a GVW of at least 24,000 lbs.

    These are just different takes on PICK-UPS with different takes on what the market wants.

    Closest thing to a mid-size truck is one of the DIESEL GM twins.

    That said , I like my taco just fine. It has history, character and gets respect altho no one will ever wave back.......
