while I concede on the front of it not being a fuel economical vehicle, and certainly not a looker...they are more reliable than the Pilot accoring to various industry counterparts ( says multiple Honda dealer counterparts to me) in comparo...they do haul as large a load as a Tacoma or Frontier easily...both in towing and in bed loading...and they can very comfortably haul 4 passengers and their lugage or anything else needed without issue.

At that point you're better off getting a full size double cab truck.

Smaller bed, 4 full size passengers, and full towing capability.

My Avalanche gets the same gas mileage as my buddy's Honda Pilot.

but I'll bet a Pilot and/or a Ridgeline is easier to park than an Avalanche or a full size double cab pick up...

as long as the crowd of people ridiculing you move out of the way, it's probably true

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Our special forces use supercharged Tacomas.

Not really.  The HiLux is a different truck than the Tacoma.
And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.
