New D-Max at the end of the year too, with allegedly more roomy cabin and their unbeatable 5 year warranty.

And the new Fiat will be an L200 and new Renault will be a Navara.

I hope there's an alternative access for that spare wheel. Imagine the fun demounting camper or off-oading a tonne of materials when you pick up a flat.

"Honda is also trying to appeal to those who love to host tailgate parties in parking lots outside of American football games. To that end, the new Ridgeline is available with a 540W in-bed audio system, which feature six exciters, rather than speakers, located within the wall of the tray bed"

Yep. I don't really understand the US cultural demand for having a pickup truck just for going shopping in. It is these people that caused US truck manufacturers to produce large pickup trucks with useless load capacities, because most customers were interested in a car like ride and performance plus the ability to carry some shopping.

Anyway, at least this new Honda Ridgeline looks like a pickup truck - the previous model was embarrassing - only a Pontiac Aztec owner would think the old model was attractive.

Novel storage on that Honda even with a four door pickup it would be nice ot have somewhere secure stuff out of sight

We have two major fans of Pontiac Aztecs here. I scoured eBay for months!

I see you've carefully shared a picture of its most attractive aspect in order to groom other unsuspecting members into Aztec appreciation.
