this is funny you guys bring this up because Dad and I working at Honda I'm always asking him when Honda gonna come out with a truck.(cause they have small cars,good size cars (like the RL) and Minivans and now SUVs) now all they need is a pickup.depending on when you talk to him you either get i think it's come or i doubt if they make it.( I don't know if Japan(Honda's Headquarters can't make up there mind or what) Dad told one reason there a little scared to jump in is its SO competive.Dad said if they do bring out a pickup it will be a little pickup(Like a ranger,or s-10) cause until it catches on they're just gonna make a little one.(similar to the deal with the odyesee)(if you remember to old odyesee it was 4 hinge doors now it's dual sliders and 2 hinge doors). dad said also trucks is the bread and butter of the big 3(i call em the trash 3) cause Ford sells more F-150 than any other car or truck. but that's just my thoughts. If they do come out it will be(guessing) atleast 5 years cause they'd have to build a whole new assembly line for that.

i think it's real cause you know how lincoln gonna have the blackwood and i herd caddy gonna have a truck(a dressed up Chevy pickup)
now personally i wouldn't have a double cab cause you don't have enough bed(cause i got snowmobiles i sometimes haul in the bed of the pickup. and with a 6ft bed i gotta drop the tailgate to put the sled in. it's okay if your more worried about getting in and out easy but i'll stick with a cab and half

In 2000, the Ford F series was the 2nd best selling vehicle in the WORLD, just behind the VW Golf.
