Since the Ridgeline is just an Accord with a pickup bed, it’s a ute, right?
It’s a car, not a truck (which is actually its biggest selling point)

It’s a Pilot with a pickup bed

This is a ute. A good ute that can do lots of Ute things.
This is a ute that is pretending to be a body on frame pickup truck and therefore must go to Ute Jail. It’s less like a penitentiary and more like Juvie.
That stupid rubber strip makes this entire car dead to me. Bad Honda!

I’m entirely comfortable with the idea that trucks don’t need to be body on frame. I would s ay the ride height makes it a truck, not a car.

This is the truck most truck drivers need, just not the one they want. Honda (and Acura for that matter) is determined to build ugly but otherwise wonderful vehicles and I don’t know why.

I suppose if you start with a crossover you get a pickup truck. A slammed first gen would be amazing. Is this better?

Except the current Accord and Civic Coupe, their lineup is getting kinda fugly looking. Sort of a dopey bloated looked.

“Accord with
a bed” isn’t really accurate. I don’t think they’re technically on the same platform even. It’s a Pilot ute, really.

No. Utes sit low like a car.

Beltline is still way too high

Kinda. The only use height is too high to really be granted that title though.

I call it the Pilot Camino (or Ranchero, if you prefer).

No! Its a chopped Odyssey even drives like one.

The Accord platform has a lot of cars on it. The Pilot/Passport, Ridgeline, Odyssey, MDX, and TLX are all on that platform

What’s the platform name? I didn’t realize Honda went modular. Couldn’t find it on the Wikipedia.

Whatever it is, it seems that’s the next vehicle we’ll be buying. Wife fell in love with a 2019 RTL-T and we’ll be looking for one with light gray interior. 2020 RTL might work as well, but they got rid of the shifter and I hate that.

I’ve seen quite a few older people with them, they are great for what most people need. I looked at them when I was thinking of ditching my old DD, they are not cheap new.

Hey my Acura wagon is an Accord in some places, people try to give me shit by saying nice Accord and it isn’t even trying to be a truck.
