It’d hardly be the first car with this kind of non-traditional latching/handle system. I understand the paranoia, but I’ve literally never heard of an issue like that actually happening.
To the contrary, I hear about people pulling the traditional handles right off Hondas and Nissans and Neons quite regularly.
Will it ride better and handle better than a traditional pickup in a way that the average driver will notice? Because todays trucks ride and handle pretty well (for their size. The are a huge pain to park, in my opinion).
Alright, suppose I am in the market for a pickup and I’m sold by your argument that I don’t need all the pickup the the F150/Silverado/Ram offers. How much money will the ridgeline save me? Far to often, the amount is far too close to zero. So why not buy a “real” full size truck?
Basically it’s a bad car simply because people think it’s a bad car
LOL as if you were ever going to buy a Lincoln. They know that, and don’t care one bit what you think.
That doesn’t sound right. Both cars normally match up well and it should pretty much be a drivers race. Maybe it was.
No way. As the current owner of an 07 FX4 Screw 5.4L and a new owner of a 15 XLT Supercab 2.7L Ecoboost, I can tell you this truck is lightyears ahead of my old FX4, which I loved dearly.
Judging who you would date based on what vehicle they drive or their choice of career is a massive turn off. You would strike out immediately with me as well.
Fun Fact: I know more multi-millionaires that drive trucks than I do that drive German luxo barges.
As the recently former owner of a 2006 F-150 Lariat Crew Cab 4x4 that I loved dearly, my retort is such:
You guys slay me sometimes. Seriously?
Cars made by Mercedes is why we think European cars are garbage.
Except the F150 with the Max Payload option can carry 50% more than the XD.
So, with the top tier model starting at around 60k, how is this supposed to compete with things like.....I don’t know.....a Ram 2500 Limited with the 800 lb/ft 6.7l Cummins which starts at 65ish?
The problem it’s going to have is that a GMC Sierra 2500 Denali 4x4 with the Duramax, aka the nicest truck GM makes, is only 65k before incentives. The Nissan likely won’t cost any less and won’t really offer anything “more”. It might ride a smidge nicer and it might eke out an extra MPG but it’s still an ugly…
It would make sense if you bought one to tow a trailer with your HDs on it. But then again, this is a better use of a supercharged F-150.
Ford keypad.
No I mean they aren’t capturing the sound well.
