Enjoyed eveyone's comments. I miss many of the Tundra features (bluetooth, large center console, power mirrors, etc). Threre are always trade offs with these vehicles. In my younger days I did need the heavy hauling and power that the Tundra might be worth the "truck-like" rough ride. The Ridgeline gives me the necessary utilitarian needs to haul furniture, landscaping stuff, lumber and still gets me to my favorite fishing hole.
In my part of the country many folks have a pickup for their everyday drive and use it to have the convenience of ranching needs or light hauling. My previous Tundras were a perfict fit (sorry I sold it) and the Ridgeline is now (I hope) a perfict fit. The new Tundra would work well for folks that need to haul large loads, work truck or serious off-road needs. (or young enough that their belly doesn't jiggle from the ride...or a ballet dancers long arms to reach the bed). Advice....do take the trucks (car) for an overnight trial. I didn't and thought (having 3 previous Tundra's) that it was not necessary. My dealership and salesman were great and it would not have been a problem. As a matter of fact they offered me a swap for any truck on the lot but they all had the same issues. I am disappointed in Toyota as much as I am disappointed in myself for maiking a quick decision to buy the wrong vehicle. Thanks for all your posts.
