Re: Requiem for another pickup
perception is key. look at honda's ridgeline...it makes me believe that they're selling to people that want the look of a truck, but not the true and full function of one.

Re: Requiem for another pickup
I think the Ridgeline is part of the reason why the truck crowd is against unibodies and independent rear suspensions for pick ups. Aside from hauling people, the Ranger is as, or more, capable than it, while being cheaper.
It is the future of small, consumer pick ups. A report came out that Toyota is looking into taking their hybrid A-bat concept to production. |

HC: yes, the T100 was marketed as competition for full sizes. sad competition, but competition
