01 Sierra 3/4 ton quad cab vs. 05 Ridgeline

[torbs]

what do you guys think are the pros and cons of these items...my dad is in a debate on which to get...im thinking honda because its basically new, only like 3-4k more, has a warranty, and gets better milage. i dont know though...which do you guys think would be better?

wait isnt it a honda ridgeline? a highlander is a toyota SUV

[camzaro28]

no debate here. take the chevy over the honda anyday.

seriously i dont like the new ridgelines.

you...own...a domestic...if you said you liked the honda at all it'd be like going against your domestic religion or somthing

a unibody pickup just doesn't sit with me for some reason.

one of the car magazines (I think it was C&D) had nothing but bad to say about the ridgeline except that it rode nice - and for that reason it won the challenge it was in :roll:)

in no way shape or form will a ridge line ever hold up to the chevey 3/4 truck for being used as a truck, but if its just being bought to have a truck then buy what you think looks better. and you don't really need a 3/4 if you are just going to be doing little odd jobs around the house and what not. personally if i'd buy anything over a 1/2 ton pickup i'd get a diesel. but look at the to and look at what it well be used for and how practical one is over the other

[PSiedTSi]

thats exactly what i said ^^^^

my dad will be using it for an occassional boat tower and a potential snow removal (that one is iffy)...the GMC has a 6.0l in it..so like a 383ish???...otherwise, it'll be the general DD truck that has a baby seat in the back (i got a 1.5yr old half brother)...

[PSiedTSi]

well if he does snow removal definately not the ridgeline...

[torbs]

like i said...its very iffy if he'll be doing that or not...his schedule is kinda hectic with both him and my step mom working day/night shifts...plus my lil bro on top of it...

[torbs]

also, another vehicle that'd be considerd is a quad cab V8 tundra...any info on that thing too??

[KA-T_240]

if snow removal poss. deffinatly not the honda. just look it up as far as motor info and i think that 6.0 is like 370ish

[PSiedTSi]

the V8 tundra isnt that bad...itd be better for hardcore duties than the ridgeline which is just a suburban use truck...nick has a tundra

There really is no comparison between a 3/4 ton Chevy and the Honda pickup.
