...other than the fact that they are ugly. I see beginning in '05 they lost the awful side/door rocker trim. That helped a little. Still has that useless business on the bed. I hear removing that stuff really leaves a mess of holes and fasteners.

But, the idea behind the thing isn't bad in that it's a car/truck capable of hauling sacks of manure or whatever w/o messing up the interior of an SUV. E.g, you can hose it out.

I'm having a hell of a time locating a used truck for any kind of value. PU's are freaking gold right now. I think pound for pound (looking at that many ways, towing etc.), I can buy an Avalanche for half the money.

Is it that ugly?? Do I lose my man card? (Don't give a fook about that anyhow.)

Then there's the Honda Ridgeline. Somehow I ain't warming to a Honda.
