This is the first and last time I will respond to you. Some times you know what your talking about, and some times you don't. But at all times you're just an a$$-hole, and I have no time for people like you.
ing pointless. You got called on it, deal with it. Dealing with it by not responding is of course fine by me, fewer stupid posts is always a good thing.
That cars get better gas milage than trucks.
Bleh. Sticks and stones may break my bones, but I will always have time to counter stupidity.

Jeremy ,do you foresee a time when AHM will offer a TDI type of option on this product in the future? Or does Honda not view the USDM as diesel friendly?
But my guess is a really strong no. Only diesel activity I think has any chance at all of coming stateside would be with the Accord but not until the new low sulfer diesel is the US standard which I think happens in 2006.

BTW, I drove a Ridgeline yesterday. Very impressive. It's hard to describe how solid feeling it is. Can't wait to try towing with it.
PS. That intake with no resonator sounds really cool too.

I beg to differ that a 350Z and Vette get better gas mileage than the S. We have a Z Roadster in the family and it's lucky to get 16-18 mpg around town and 24-25mpg on the highway. I consistantly get 21-22mpg around town with the S and 27-28mpg on the highway. As a matter of fact I filled up today after a tank full of mixed driving and used 10.5 gallons for 265 miles, which is a touch over 25 mpg. I would say the only time a Vette would get better gas mileage than the S would be during 6th gear cruising on the highway, since it turns no more than 1500 RPM at 70mph+ vs the S at 4000+. Other than that, with any spirited driving and stop and go traffic around town, there is no way a Vette is going to get better gas mileage. It'd probably be more around 12-15mpg. It's rated at 18/28.

its a piece of $h!t if u ask me. Honda should've never got involve with trucks, pickups that is anyways.
Honda should've leave the truck market to Toyota.
honestly, i will never ever buy a Honda pickup. Toyota is way ahead of the ball game.
Honda should just stay on asphalt and not the dirt.

All you haters were the same ones with their jaws dropped last summer when I was out at the sand dunes in my MDX in Florence Oregon. I got it everywhere most other vehicles would not go or had to be towed out of. I went down on the beach.. Only thing down there was Jeeps and hard core 4X4's looking at me like "How did he do that". All of the other vehicles in my class... trucks.. explorers... etc had to get pulled out all the time, not me.
Legendary 4X4 area and my MDX couldn

Kai-mikazee,
^I for one am glad no one asked you.^
Including Honda.
I wonder what you would have recommended when they asked your opinion about building a roadster? Or their first SUV..... Or the Odyssey.....
By the way...the Ridgline is going to send Toyota back to the drawing board. It is a much better first effort than that of Toyota.
