If I was practical and didn't want a convertible, I would so have a Ridgeline. My son has one, cabin is immense and what other truck has a trunk.
Literally any truck with a tonneau cover ;) Personally if I wanted a TRUCK I wouldn't get 1 with a unibody. I got my Gladiator because I wanted things that aren't normally found in 1 vehicle: 4x4, truck bed, convertible. I wanted sporty too but traded on-road sporty to off-road sporty lol.

I also do not like unibody 4WD vehicles, not only Trucks, but, also 4WD SUVs. I never liked Cherokees for that exact reason.

The Honda Ridgeline is a pickup truck by American Honda Motor Company and is categorized by some as a lifestyle pickup. The Ridgeline is one of only two pickup trucks currently produced by the Honda Motor Company—the other being the Honda Acty mini-truck.
Automotive class: Pickup truck, Truck

Ridgelines are not trucks
I was watching some lousy movie during this downtime and the city guy goes out to a cabin with a Land Rover. From the Cabin, he has to drive a trail to get somewhere. The lady says something like, That car won't make it, take my "Ridgeline". Then, they proceed to show the Ridgeline jamming on dirt roads. So hokey and blatant advertising, I was talking about it the rest of the movie. My girlfriend could not stop laughing at me for letting it ruin the movie for me. lol..

Its not a truck. Trucks have SEPARATE truck beds from the cab for a reason.
By that definition, an Avalanche isn't a truck, either...

And neither is a Hummer H1 by that definition. Me thinks too many people here are hung up and confusing the term "Truck" with "Pickup"... A Gladiator is a Pickup Truck, a Cadilac Escalade or Wrangler is an SUV Truck. An Avalanche or Ridgeline is an SUT Truck, and an E350 or Chevy Express is a Cargo Truck.

The original Sport Utility Trucks (SUTs)! (Or 'Utes' if you're down under :) )

Sort of trolling with some opinions in there. Those aren't trucks...they're all just SUVs and cars with open cargo areas. "Real trucks" have separate beds for a reason. A Ridgeline is just a Honda CRV with no windows around the cargo.
