We finally made a decision on Christmas day to buy a Tundra Model 1794 Crew Max 2WD. Dec. 26 we went to the Toyota dealer for another test drive, took the Tundra to the house and it was too tight a fit in our carport. We have a screwed up parking arrangement with a boat, a Mazda Miata, the Casita, an LS430 Lexus, and a pickup. The only way a full size pickup would work would be to leave it out in the weather exposed and that is out of the question for me. So we tried a Tacoma and it was too rough riding. I thought about the upcoming Canyon and Colorado, but past experience tells me not to buy a first year GM product. So, we went to the Honda dealer and drove a Ridgeline. We fell in love with it, rides and drives like a car, best handling thing with a pickup bed I have ever driven. I found a 2014 silver/black leather Ridgeline SE at another dealer and made a deal. This thing has heated seats, NAV, voice controls, Bluetooth, pretty much everything but a power passenger seat. Wife loves it. We get AWD to boot, took it to Chicago in 8" of snow for New Years. This thing has a robust chassis, hybrid unibody with built in frame rails, weighs 4,600 lbs. Now you Amurican truck guys can tell me how your V8s will tow better and get better mileage, but the Ridgeline was also $10,000 less money than a loaded out full size pickup. It's a bit old school, been out 9 years, but exactly what we need. I could go on and on raving about it. I drove it 900 miles on Jan. 3. It is the first vehicle I have had that did not give me a backache after a long drive.The seats were made for my back.
Thanks for all of the comments and advice.
