Hope the .avi file type works for you - it's VERY old at this point

That too... but I try to remember that Honda did make trucks way back... I think you posted the pic of the little truck in front of the Ridgeline that my friend Brian owns.
He tows his old S cars with the Honda truck which I gotta give him a
for.
He used to tow with his V6 Accord wagon but that is mostly retired at this point.
It just makes me angry that my favorite sports car and racing car company is forced to build a minivan in order to compete with Toyota in having a "full vehicle line up"

I know, those are two words that make me cringe when used together - Porsche and SUV 
If I ever bought one it would NOT be an SUV!
I know, that Honda has to build the stuff I don't like in order to build the 3 cars I do actually like I used to love the Accord too but it's too freakin' big now.

I know, I know. I understand that the history of the roadster extends further back than the Miata. But... without that car, there would be no modern versions.

I have no more ill will against the mini van than I do the Accord. It's like Field of Dreams - If you build it they will come. It would be stupid for Honda to not have a mini van.

I know It's as much truck as MOST people really NEED though. Like the people who buy SUVs with AWD but could easily live with a minivan instead.
Some people like the truck image w/o needing a truck.
And I do realize that Honda has to keep up with the Jones' to stay competitive but I think Honda was just fine back in the days when they sold Civic, Accord and Prelude! That would have been 79-92 I think
