Next time, take a pic of the models! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

haha, I don't think Honda had any models! They might have over by the cars, but we skipped those. I do have a nice shot of one that was talking about the new Vette!!! WOW [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Looks like a cool truck? Will probably outlast any North American junk, just like the cars and quads! 3.5 L V-TEC V-6, 255ish hp. Might soon be truck of the year, who knows. All I know is I would love to have one to put my Rinny in.

 

haha, I would like to see anyone try to tow more than their skirt with a 255hp torqueless V6. LOL looks like a perfect truck for the "urban cowboy" or a woman.

 

Unibody construction on a truck? That's not a truck, it's a car with a small bed.
My brother-in-law has a Toyota Tundra, says it rides just like a car. I'm sorry, but I want my truck to ride like a truck!
I'd like to see him put my camper on his Tundra! Then pull my trailer with 4 quads! LOL
Mine: 2005 F350 4X4 Lariat Crew Cab, V10 power. Now that's a truck!

 

WTF! the fact that u guys even call it a "truck" shocks me. Its not a truck, its a pickup. Definitions- "TRUCK: vehicle made by dodge and sometimes ford or chevrolet. can haul/tow anything you want with ease and worry free. must be 4X4 and muddy at least one day a month" "PICKUP: anything made by a foreign based company with a bed to carry your purse.

 

In the truck and car market i like to go bye the, " make american money, bye an american made", or " need money, need food, eat an import". ya, that honda avalanch is kida goofy looking. More a urban cowgirl vehical, like most honda vehicals.

 

This must by a childs definition. I have owned 3/4 and one ton Chevs, Fords, and Dodges all with standard cab, 8' bed, and 2WD. These were definitely trucks. Where I unload my dirt bikes and quads and for type of work I do there is no need for 4WD. Too many kids and immature adults think the looks and idea of owning 4WD is required to be considered serious.

 

Red400EXRod,
I have an '01 Toyota Tundra. Why would you expect a half ton to perform like your 3/4 ton truck? I pull our 4 ATV's around whenever required with it and it handles it easily. I've even towed more than it's rating, 2 tractors at once, one 3,000 lbs, the other 4,000 lbs plus the weight of the trailer they were on. It didn't have a problem with that either, you just need to slow down early for stop signs.

That's not the first time I've heard that saying "but I want my truck to ride like a truck!" I think it's funny. It just goes to show how the trucks that "ride like a truck" haven't come any further in technology then the trucks built in the 1950's. My dad just bought an '05 GMC Sierra with the Duramax and Allison tranny. It is a regular cab. I would have to say that one rides very close to a car also. Is that not considered a truck because it has up to date suspension? You have a lot of people on this forum that say that Honda's Foreman line rides like dumptrucks. Maybe they like it that way!? Maybe it makes them feel like they're on dumptrucks! rooster

 

My Rincon was manufactured in North America, and 96% of my Honda Civic Si was also manufactured in North America, guess that blows your theory out of the water! (and just so you know, it was American citizens that built both of these products, who happen to spend their money in America!)
