    Well this is embarrassing but I will be honest. Hold my man card while I explain.

    I see Honda as my second pick for a brand. I consider the Ridgeline a minivan with a pickup bed, however, for the light duty stuff that I do, the Ridgeline would still get it done.

    Although I would rather a real truck, I would feel confident the Ridgeline would have less headaches and better resale compared to the other brands without Toyota in the mix.

    At least I didn't say Subaru Baja......

    I subaru Impreza Sport wagon is also in the running... But I would also have to have a truck as well, so for the truck it would likely be a 1997 Chevrolet K1500 with the 5.7l vortec.

    Nissan Titan XD. I had a Titan LE before my Tundra and just hated the styling of the new Titan. But I would take it over any of the offerings from Ford,GM or Dodge excuse me RAM.

    Personally, I wouldn't even own anything else in a 1/2 ton if it wasn't a Tundra.

    I hate to say this but if i was a big truck guy like i am and Toyota wasn't around then i would probably be driving a Raptor or possibly the Nissan Titan. There was a time I did like the look of the Titan.

    NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

    I am sorry I just had to do that. As you can tell from my comment I am not a fan of the "looks" of the Nissan titan.

    That's a tough question considering I have 2 Tundras and a Lexus in my driveway. But, I'd say the 2500 Duramax Midnight Edition.

    It really was. that was probably was of the more luxurious and comfortable cars I owned. Not to mention the 400hp and 400tq. I'm buying another when I find the right one. Funny thing was I actually found my exact GTO for sale a couple months ago and was going to buy it from the guy who bought it from me but I hesitated and it got gone.
