The Honda dealer in my area is offering 3,000 dollars off on Ridgeline, Pilot, and their mini-van. Must not be selling like they thought.

That has to be a first...

Interesting stuff.

 

Imports being sold with domestic sales techniques, that is new.

 

I can understand. These three vehicles are the most fuel inefficient vehicles they sell.

 

It was only a matter of time. On average most american made cars sell for less money than there counter parts based model to model comparision when optioned the same. And reliability as caught up as well.

 

I thought that Odyssey was doing good. Last year it was 2nd best selling mini-van.

 

I can tell you that you rarely see any three of these vehicles on the road here in Colorado. A Pilot about once or twice a week, but I can go weeks between sitings of Odyssey's. Now I still have only seen about 4 or 5 Ridgelines actually on the road. I usually see the same Ridgeline on a weekly basis, as it has some 20"+ rims and is bagged. Doesn't look to bad, but not my thoughts of what a truck should be. Other then that, rarely is there a Ridgeline seen.

I think the dealerships upped the price for the Ridgeline here. Being they are supposed to be Mid-Sized trucks but are selling for as much if not more than Full-Size F-150's, Rams and Silverados.

 

The apologists for the Japanese car industry never cease to amaze me.

 

Being I currenty own 2 domestics apologists is a tad strong but I'm glad you found the humor in my post.

 

Yeah, whatever.

 

i like dont want to get involved in this at all, but what is an apologist???

Never heard that term before.

 

Apologist-A person who argues in defense or justification of something, such as a doctrine, policy, or institution.

In this case, an apologist for the Japanese auto industry is a person that argues in defense of any perceived inadequacy of a Japanese vehicle.

 

I get it now

inadequacy....LOL. Funny and true, i love it
