....yawn....

It’s pretty simple, unless you’re trying to get ultra-pedantic about it, which would indicate that you have an axe to grind.

Good point. Maybe it would boil down to number of non-related complaints filed with FCC that might trigger an investigation.

Ahh, you’re probably focused on the “Great on fire roads, logging roads, sandy beaches, etc.” part of my comment.  That doesn’t mean that it cannot go far offroad.

Going far offroad to go camping away from the crowds. My comment still stands.

I listen to AM all the time, but never political talk shows. I listen to news and H&G shows, and occasional sports.

The biggest issue is that they’d have to hunt the does, not the bucks. This rubs many people the wrong way. It’s not a bad deal if you’re a meat hunter (seems relatively few hunters are anymore); however, unless you’re adept at processing the deer yourself, commercial processing costs have gone up so much that there…

Vehicle lost traction? I’ve launched boats hundreds of times, of all sizes, using mostly 2wd trucks with highway tires on all kinds of ramps. Never had a worry about losing traction, maybe spin a little bit on mossy, weedy or gravel-on-concrete ramps.

If you’re not rock-crawling, there’s a good chance the Ridgeline will get you where you need to go.  Great on fire roads, logging roads, sandy beaches, etc.

Those images are all CGI.

It doesn’t have the nice recovery points that the 2023 Pilot TrailSport has, and likely won’t get them until Honda gives the Ridgeline the new platform. Same for GC and larger tires.

Except the one in the Ridgeline is huge.  I can haul four five-gallon water bottles in the Ridgeline trunk with the lid closed.

Of all of those trucks, i would go with one you didn’t list, the Gen1 Dakota. I had a ‘92 and it was a great truck, perfect size.  Later Gen2 Dakotas grew too big.

This is just an unfounded rumor started by my high school history teacher who was a car aficionado who grew up in the 60s...

Sign of the times?

Having piloted boats for nearly 35 years, the best option (should you find yourself in this scenario) is full reverse, but make sure the bow hits the wave head-on.  Full reverse will lessen the effect of the wave slamming into the boat.

They need the 1980s two-tone paint job to make them look more lean, instead of Boomer flabby.  Then the smaller cab will look better.

Somewhere there is a Ram 2500 with a Lambo V10 under the hood.

We have a couple of the current-gen Durangos at work. Even though they are on what would now be considered an ancient platform, i thought it would be a good base platform for a unibody truck, certainly better than the Maverick.  They just need to fix the twitchy steering.

Over the last decade, Ram has viewed the mid-size class in terms of consumer price rather than physical size. In their minds, the budget-priced Ram Classic filled the mid-sized niche because it was priced like the mid-sized market. They couldn’t fathom that some folks actually wanted trucks that would fit inside their…
