Honda’s new Ridgeline will be out - as a 2017 model - in about a year.
It will be far superior the Mercedes in snow and cost thousands less in maintenance.
Having grown up with lots of European metal in our garage I would not have a Mercedes at this time.
Customer satisfaction is high, but quality is very low.
You may be right, but volume on the Ridgeline is so low I’m surprised they have even kept it alive. Their yearly sales is what Ford sells in a week. The Ridgeline and Nissan Titan sell about a 1000 units a month. Ford and GM sell about 50,000 pickups a month.
I suspect Mercedes can do Ridgeline/Titan numbers, not sure it’s profitable at that volume.
Nissan is coming out with a 5L diesel cummins. Now we’re talking!
