A friend just bought a 2026 GMC Colorado AT4 Denali with blackout package on red. Looks fantastic!

I had a 2020 Silverado that I bought used. Nothing but problems. Parts issues from supply chain probs, brakes kept failing. Finally was in the shop for over a month and I traded it in for a new 2024 Silverado. They kind of had me over a barrel otherwise I would have bought a Tundra. New truck has had zero problems. Reading all these Toyota complaints, kinda glad I skipped the Tundra.

Takes too long to get to Shreveport for hearings.

I have graduated to the Electra Cruiser. Much better ride to the LSU baseball games.

I love my Ridgeline,can’t see myself driving anything else.Only 5,000 lbs towing capacity but that’s all I need.
Not the “coolest” looking truck on the road,for sure, but looking “cool”isn’t one of my priorities.


That trunk in the bed is a pretty damn cool and useful feature. I dunno... I may have to drive one and see how it feels and looks in person with fresh eyes.

I’ve got a 2026 trail Boss with a 3 L diesel and so far I’ve really enjoyed it.

I have to say, browsing the Frontier. It seems like a decent truck for the money for sure.


You can get into a non pro4x, but still 4x4, with all other features for around 35k.

I'll be honest, the look is the downside for me. It seems to have some cool features. The in-bed storage I saw was cool. I'm not a big "gotta have tacti-cool" guy but I do struggle with the look on it.


I work out my truck and pull a trailer often but I don't think I could drive a Ridgeline if it was given to me.

The Ridgeline and whatever that Hyundai thing is is just a new El Camino. A car with a bed. The looks are just so bad. Props to those that enjoy them though, Honda makes a reliable vehicle.

I'd rather just drive a Honda SUV if I was just wanting a Honda.

If you are thinking new and full size, Ford F150 with the 5.0.
