Do you work for Honda?
So how could you possibly know it's not profitable?
:h
Nope I do not and also one of the few brands I have not owned. Knew people at the Aliston plant who built it.
Didn't say it wasn't profitable, said it wasn't a "money maker". The WHOLE idea of getting into pickups is to make a BOATLOAD of money on them. Ford, Dodge and GM make more per unit selling pickups than just about anything else except performance cars. Honda in the last few years couldn't sell enough of these to fill a bathtub. Cost 250 million to develop then they close ops in Aliston and moved it to the US. Think they've been making out like a bandit on it??? NOT.
Now they're going to try again???? Seriously? If it wasn't a Honda it never would have stayed in production this long. Time to let go and move on.
