ORIGINAL: Ronnie Lee One more thing....I know what some of you are saying....But some of those trucks are built in Canada and Mexico. True, but remember this, Canada and Mexico BUY our trucks too. How many Fords, Chevy's and Dodge's are running around in Japan, Korea, China.....Well, while stationed in Korea I traveled to Japan and Hong Kong....and I missed my trucks. Just some food for thought.........If you've read this far....thanks for hearing me out. Something you need to keep in mind is that most Asian and even European countries dont build very large streets for cars. Especially in Japan. I'm not saying you wont see these full size trucks over there, but you have to keep in mind that there are alot of Ford/GM/DCX subdivisions for overseas vehicles. I mean, Mercedes has been producing work trucks over in Europe and Asia for years. Volkswagen and Volvo also have been a huge factor overseas compared to the American companies. I mean, you dont see everyone over here driving Mercedes, BMW, and VW. Over there, its a common occurence. My point is that a majority of the people overseas do not use pickups on a regular basis the way we would. Also, there are more car based pickups like the Ford Ranchero and the Chevy El Camino. In Australia, they actually have a Monaro (Pontiac GTO) based car pickup. All things considered, it looks better then most the car styled pickups I've seen. Granted, Toyota and Nissan arent the big 3......but I tell you what....they have really proven alot to me as far as trucks go. I honestly would buy either of their brand trucks over anything not named a Dodge, and depending on the model, I might even buy one over a Dodge. I understand your reasoning and opinion, and I support it to a point, but don't belittle them just yet. They havent had the 80 yrs to develop trucks like Ford, GM, and Dodge have. They've never really needed them. And as much as I hate the Ridgeline's looks, it's actually a decent performing vehicle. Granted, you wont be doing much in it as far as hauling, but some people really dont need to haul much.
