    Lots of stuff!
    When I saw the white, I thought how dirty it would get but then I got a light grey interior and it has been fine. The seats aren't completely white in the Capstone, the lowers are dark and the seat bottoms are dark.

    The storage under the backseat for me is pretty crappy so I wouldn't miss it, Nothing I carry fits in the little spaces. Honda did a much better job with this space with the Ridgeline.

    The question I have would be: would miss the Electric Locker and the MTS extra modes. After a year with my Limited, I have never used the Locker and never used the 4wd. I thought I would use these more but I don’t see this truck going offroad without major damage and then there is my lack of faith in the engine over time!! I can’t image how a wrecker would be able to reach the truck stuck in the wild.

    The suspensions differences between the Cap and the Pro would be huge, Offroad vs Onroad. Obviously, different intended uses.

    I have been considering going to look at a Capstone mainly because of the hybrid and they are popping up in the used market. The Pro will pop up but there is a $33k price gap between the 2 trucks on CL with some current listings. I really don't know why such a huge price difference?

    I could take my aftermarket stuff off my Limited and stick it on the Capstone. The tow mirrors on the Capstone would be handy too.

    I guess I would need to try one and see how the ride is and how seats are as well as the added power of the hybrid.

    If you like the southern flare and a little nice interior, the 1794 is a great choice. (I have one)
    Otherwise platnium is pretty sweet too without the chrome. I do like the 1794 interior a bit better.
    With either truck, toss the tires and buy some nicer ones that'll last.
