Tow vehicle - Opinions?

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

I could write a thesis on this topic, but I'll keep it short! :lol:

The big three have the technology to build reliable products but the asian manufacturers just seem to built a better mouse trap.

Case and point, when was the last time Honda, Toyota, Nissan recalled 250,000 vehicles? People are tired of buying unreliable vehicles.

The imports give consumers products they need..... not want. Thats why they haven't discountinued as many models of cars and trucks like the the big three. And as a result, they generate record sales.

Now, the asian manufacturers are targeting the truck industry. It wont be long.........any GM shareholders out there? Is GM at the brink of bankruptcy?

I would like to encourage domestic vehicles, but when I'm talking about about my hard earned money..............?

Wasnt gonna chime in, but... TinBanger I know you're just relaying what you've read, but dont even try calling the ridgeline a 'truck'. it's called mag editors getting one free for a year, (or however they work it, i dont care) of course they'll rave about it.
long live the 'burban! & silverado! ('94 & '00 )
