I agree with many of the naysayers here.

A lot of neat features, and it's rumored to be a good value but damn that thing is ugly.

It looks like it was designed by Pontiac and not Honda.

Funny, that is what the Ford guys say about this thing.

Yes, this truck is ugly. But I love a lot of the features they've packed into it.

I don't know about you guys, but I don't need a V8. I've never towed anything, and I probably never will. Also, it's about 1,000 lbs lighter than an F-150.

I have a feeling I might have one of these in my driveway by summer.

I kind of like the looks except for the sloping rail for the cargo bed - would have looked better if near horizontal to ground (like other trucks).

If it is priced near the Pilot, why not just buy a Pilot - I think a new design comes out this Fall btw.

Because lots of people use their vehicle to move stuff they don't want in the back of their SUV. Don't get it still? Okay, please drive down to your local farmer, have him shovel into the back of your leather clad, thick upholstered SUV about 600 pounds of manure. Like the idea of an open bed yet?

Ever try hauling a queen size mattress and boxspring in a Pilot? They wont fit inside.
