Someone asked me to do a "real" truck out of the Ridgeline. Well, here it is:

The bedsides look much better flat.

I think that was me...very nice chop, as always, but I don't think I'll ever like the looks of the Ridge unless Honda starts from scratch.

I don't like it. But then again, it's very, very rare for me to like anything pickup truck.

The bed looks better horizontal, but I still feel it's too high. A clear improvement though.

What was the doner vehicle for the rear windows, or did you create them entirely?

Hey CWW, if you get the chance could you do a 2-door CTS? I've always been curious what one might look like.

It's too little.

Now that I look at it again, I think it looks pretty damn good except for the rear cab side window.

I just figured out the other thing that's bothering me here, the wheelbase seems too long for an extended-cab vehicle.

I know, it should really be shorter. Shorter bed sides and a shorter wheelbase could really turn the Ridgeline chop from less-unattractive to pretty nice.

Wow. That improves the look of the "truck" a lot.

The bed still seems a little high, but that's greatly improved over Honda's designers.

BTW: I looked through the other photos on your site, and that Passat coupe is REALLY nice looking. That doesn't look like a chop at all. :)
