Honda used Buttresses to get the rigidity they needed for the 1600 lbs payload in the Ridgeline, a conventional box would have not been strong enough to support the tow or payload ratings. The new Ridgeline has a very complicated and robust support in the corner where the bed meets the body to allow it to handle the…

So you know where the floor height is relative to the door? You don’t know this stuff, you’re guessing.
Do we even know the numbers for any of those yet? I find it hard for everyone to speculate on those when all we’ve seen is a basically static display.
That’s the problem with the truck market, people want their truck to “look” a certain way, it needs to “look” tough. Who gives a flying fuck about how tough a truck looks or how it looks at all, if it’s not actually tough? I get where you’re coming from with the “my eyes don’t hear you” but in reality your “eyes” have…
I was driving one of those yesterday, I’m a bit addicted to that stereo.
It’s AWD, not FWD.
Take note everyone, as Tekamui will be eating humble pie when the Twin Turbo V6 TLX-S comes out.
And you can turn off traction control, there’s a button.
You know, you can have a normal, and type S version of the same car right? Kinda like an Audi A3, AND and RS3?
Welp, the Honda CR-V Hybrid has to make a REALLY good case for itself if it wants my money now. I cannot wait for this thing to come out.
Worth remembering is that the Hybrid models from Toyota don’t come in stripped trims, they usually include a decent amount of base features, and then can option up one level after that. 30 grands for a PHEV with 40 miles of range, 302HP, and cargo space is a good deal, and the savings in fuel will be very noticeable.
Let me know when you step up to the big leagues.
No one is arguing if Winter tires are better than All Weather Tires, Tier 1 versus Tier 1, they’re always better. However, any good sales person should know that you need to make the best recommendation for the customers situation. If they don’t have room for a second set of tires, and/or can afford to buy 2 sets, and…
Celsius. I mean, why would someone say Fahrenheit for 7 degrees unless they were bragging about how cold their freezer can get.
Celsius, I use my countries measurement system (Canada).
It’s not an upsell, it’s miles better than the other all weather tires and out brakes the Premier A/S in the wet.
It’s why they’re called Winter Tires, and not Snow tires. They’re for ALL winter conditions, be it dry, wet, snow, or ice. Once it hits 7 Degrees, put the winters on.
So I guess each crawling session is going to also need a highway cruise afterwards to let the DEF do it’s thing on the highway then?
You should look into the Michelin CrossClimates, they’ve set a new bar for Wet traction and ice traction that previous all weathers can’t beat.
They’re not all created equal unfortunately. I’ve got a copy of a Consumer reports test showing wet braking between new and worn tires, from various manufactures. Michelin Cross Climate All weathers out braked everything on the list, and the WGR4 was near the bottom. When it comes to tires and traction, you have to…
