One reason i got the Ridgeline was because it had the biggest bed for a truck that would still easily fit in my garage (don’t like parking outside when it’s -20°F).

The bed on the Gladiator is way too small, smallest in the class. It is even smaller than the Tacoma’s bed, although admittedly larger than the Maverick’s bed.
Edit: the mid-size won’t be based off the L200, but off the Gladiator platform.
I’d heard Ram was bringing a mid-size (Mitsubishi L200?) and also a unibody compact.
Here’s the deal.
That’s a condition often referred to as ‘making oil’. IOW, fuel slips past the rings and gets in the crankcase and ends up in the oilpan, so if you are diligently checking your oil once a month, the level might start going UP on the dipstick.

There's a joke in there somewhere about Hertz and electric vehicles....
Worst: Dodge Challenger Hellcat Redeye - yes, put an unguided missile into the hands of an inexperienced kid driven by testosterone and a half-developed brain.
A couple of those pocket-size jump starters because they work better than jumper cables, a cargo bar or two, four ratchet straps, 4'x6' bungee net (this is a truck), Viair 88P air compressor, first aid kit, roll of paper towels, change of clothes, beach towel, a few drinks, charger cords, hunting knife, multi-tool, a…
If it gets the adjustable ride height suspension from the MDX, it can serve as both a family hauler and a decent softroader.
My guess is that they would exceed a corporate CAFE threshold if they sold too many Hellcat engines.
The bigger bikes should be able to be fitted with two (or three) of those standardized batteries, likely running in parallel, for 2 - 3x the power of the little bikes.
Looks like a Mustang from the rear, body lines scream Camaro, and the front grill was stolen from Jaguar.
Honda’s / Acura’s (i)VTM4 / SH-AWD system operates somewhat similarly, except it uses a clutch pack on each rear axle that also controls F/R torque split. They overdrive the axles quite a bit more than this GR does, and is also what allows the active torque-vectoring. This system dates back to 2001, IIRC, and is still…
Most of my 2-stroke experience is on snowmobiles, where weight is absolutely a factor.
When I changed wheel sizes on my old Dakota, I installed a $20 bicycle computer to get accurate speedometer and odometer readings.
I was perfectly happy with my 2002 Accord coupe. In the 18 years I owned it, it had an airbag recall, SRS light repaired at 16 year for free, and clock light would go out every five years, cost $5 and 5 minutes to fix. Everything else was routine oil and tire changes. Still had 1/4" original brake pad at 170k miles…
It's not about power, it's about 9000rpm worth of fun. If I wanted power, I'd get an EV.
A Hurricane Six would be interesting, if it would fit.
