Wow - I was pleasantly impressed when I saw it in person today 🙂 It's not as large as the pictures make it out to be - the sloping bed isn't an issue at all 🙂

Interior build quality was very good - the fabric is a little cheap, but it looks like a top notch vehicle other than that 🙂 And the in bed storage is freakin' HUGE - it's a great idea 🙂

I also played around with an S2000 - by big ass barely fit in it - but it was gorgeous 🙂

That's my main motivation to stay thin. The S2K fits me like a pair of jeans. 😀

Yes - I wish I had one as an incintive to get thin 😛

Yeah, but a skinny guy like me looks out of place in anything vaguely trucklike. 😛

I am very interested to see the sales number for the Ridgeline after a couple of months... If it does sell good, it will be major trouble for the US Big 3...

HAH, yeah right

Honda doesn't have the production capacity to even make a small dent

Well the Ridgeline wouldn't make much of a difference... but if this is successful, Honda will surely concentrate more on the pickup truck market, and take sales away from the US Big 3 like Toyota and Nissan in the coming years.

It would take nearly a decade for them to even begin to take a chunk of sales from the big 3. It's a good try - but it's going to be a niche vehicle when compared tothe sales of the big 3.
