[QUOTE="Tom Schindler, post: 573955, member: 56140"] Hint, Hint: A 4x4 operates in 4x2 until you turn it off. No power is being directed to the front wheels if it isn't needed. Then again, with FWD, you really don't need AWD. Honestly, I dont blame Ford. The redesign was on its way, they sell all they make with no advertising. Why invest the money to sell vehicles that will sell themselves. Plus, the Sport Trac has already been cmpared in other magazines. Where was Honda then? Oh wait, they were head to head in the Mini-van comparisons. Did you see the letters from people that disagreed with that article? Worst vehicle offroad of the bunch. The least ground clearance. That alone should have put the RL in last place. Most people agreed. They said it was more comfy, I would expect a mini-van to be comfy. Did not tow the most, the Dodge did. I wouldn't expect a mini-van to tow much. The Magazines praised the original Odyssey. How many years did they sell them before they went back to the drawing board and actually made it a mini-van? Hw many years will it take Honda to either dump the RL or build a real truck? Remember, right now, the "Its new, Its new" factor. Everyone wants one because it is new. Once that wears off, what will Honda do? Tom [/QUOTE]
