Do you notice a difference in build quality between the Fords and the Hondas, John?
Both of my Fords were well built and equal in overall quality to the Honda. When I bought the first Ford I was doing a lot of towing to the West Coast dealing with aging parents. The extra 100 hp & torque provided by the 3.5 Turbo really helped going over the Rockies and the Sierras. The Ridgeline suits my needs now that I don't have to make those trips.
I guess many of the locals must do the Sturgis Escape, eh?
Many rent their houses and leave town, some just leave.
I owned the Honda/Yamaha dealership for 5 years, it was a great ten days then. Once I sold I worked for a guy in Sturgis during the Rally for 10 years installing windshields just to remain "connected" with the Rally/Industry.
Last year was the second year I didn't work and the first year we left town.
