Looks like a ripoff of the chevy one like that.. avalanch or something
[size=75][i]I once had a glass of milk.

It curdled, and then I couldn't drink it. So I mixed it with some water, and it was alright again.

I am now sick.

I agree with you, having a truck is great, even better in winter. I didnt say the fact that it had a bed made it useless, i said that the size of the bed is useless. Not much you can tote around in the bed of something so small.

because they arent quite as 'thought-out' as I'd like. Although I'm an IT Director my degree is in ID ;)

This thing is the perfect replacement for my Accord V6. (I like Honda alot)
just wondering. the newer pickups are a far cry from that of yesteryear.

i like the Ridgeline too. very sexy when you see one in person.

Why not just get an SUV? the length of that bed is shitty, anything you would do with your average truck (because of the bed) you wont be able to do with this. So why bother going "omg truck" when its very far from "omg truck" ?

i dont quite like how the back half looks, other than that im sure its a fine vehicle (i like honda).

i havent seen a single one out on the road though (and living in texas, about a billion people have trucks).

maybe price is a big issue? IIRC its significantly higher in price than most pickups.

i've only seen a handful, but they look better in person than a picture, which is usually the other way around when it comes to automobiles.

It's only natural, you may also experience the urge to display a confederate flag in the back window.

The rear wheels look spastic. All that extra shit on the rear makes them look smaller than the front ones.

It has the V10 Viper engine in it.

500 horsepower
525 lb-ft of torque

1/4 mile in 13.2
Straight off the assembly line, with no modifications, the all-new Dodge Ram SRT-10 destroyed the existing world speed record. The SRT-10 posted a two-lap, both directions average speed of 154.587 mph over a "flying kilometer" on the 4.71 mile oval at the DaimlerChrylser Proving Grounds in Chelsea. Guinness World Records and the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) were on hand to certify the record-breaking run.
