Well, of course personal satisfaction with the vehicle you are buying, and how much you pay for it, plays a part. That is why a lot of people buy 50-60K vehicles to do what 20-30K vehicles, at half the price, can often do. And, of course, what is a good value to Jay Leno or the Sultan of Brunei, for their huge car collections, is not necessarily going to be a good value for the average Joe simply looking for a good commuter car. That is why the auto-buying buisness is so complex, and why it usually doesn't pay to just sit down and make a snap-decision.

 

Mercedes and VW has no business on that list, neither does the Ridgeline nor the Insight, 2 of Honda's flops...

I guess Honda must be like GM and make cute trucks ala El Camino or Avalanche/Escalade EXT...

 

My cousin pooky told me this is the same crack supplier for Acura designers an people who buy the new beaks

it's good stuff!

 

With more crack, the results might actually improve.

 

Well, no, the Honda Ridgeline is not a pretty truck to look at (and the angle of the bed-to-body-joining is awkward-looking), but there's no denying its build quality and versatility. It is the only pickup to combine a ladder-truck-frame WITH unibody construction (how's that for strength?) and it has several useful features to boot, like go-anywhere AWD, dual-action tailgate, and weather-sealed under-bed compartment. If you don't need big-V8 or diesel hauling capacity, it's an excellent truck.

 

who the F#$&^%K is Strategic Vision???? Lame. Reduced value secondary to boring cars??? WTF. All of that reliability gets soooo boring. I dont want it. Yup!!! That makes a lot of sense
