I read around the site for a while to see what was going on and all I could do was shake my head at these people. Where I'm from we'd take'um out back and shoot'um to put them out of their misery.

 

Banshee, Please don't ever link us to a Honda site again I thought I was going to puke reading the post about Detroit being upset over the Consumer Reports top vehicles. These guys were breaking there arms patting themselves on the back about how great their Ridelines are. Consumer Reports is a Joke.

 

One of the guys that works for me just bought one. I told him ,"Lets hookem up and see who pulls what!"

LOL he respectfully declined!

They have to be the ugliest car/truck on the road. Eventhough, when I climbed underneath, they seem to be well engineered, despite their ugliness.

I second the "NO HONDA SITES" comment

I don't consider that a truck....sorry, not in my world anyway!!

 

ditto! i mean come on, its got a friggin' trunk!!!!

 

I agree as well! This was a bad attempt at an automobile....those have dubbed the name "thing" in my world..as in: "look, theres another one of those ugly foreign 'things' rolling down the road!"

 

It may be very well enginered/built. But it aint a truck.

 

I read somewhere that someone had posted pics of a Ridgeline with a 4-wheeler in the back, and the "truck" was dead-axled; It WOULD be fun to see those pics, if anyone would care to post one...?

 

Do the words ElCamino and Ranchero sound familar???

 

At least they are cool. Especially the SS El Camino from the late 60's, early 70's.

ok, now thats going a little too far. the elky and el ranchero were great trucks. sure they had car front ends but at least they came w/ v8's (sometimes big-blocks) and no trunk!!! please, PLEASE dont compare the trucks w/ this "thing"

 

as far as I know, truck don't have IRS and unibodies. As for it being the ugliest thing on the road. i think somebody forgot about the element (another honda, whoda thunkit?)

 

I like this quote:

"...There is a firewall which should keep the fire from moving between the engine compartment and the cabin."

 

i think thats what the dealer had to said to the guy to get him to by this.... contraption. but yeah thats funny cause everyone knows that wire insulation doesnt burn plus the fire started in the cabin inside the dash

 

As long as this is still out there, the Hondas will always be the second ugliest vehicle on the road.
