[QUOTE="Alan Browne"] Spare tires should be accessible with little effort and should consider the purpose of the vehicle. Whether rocks or an ATV, the spare should be accessible without having to unload the truck. Imagine a flat during heavy rain or on a snow covered road at -15°C ... With the Ridgeline and the misguided V-6 Honda Accord Hybrid, Honda have lost it. [/QUOTE] Gee, you reckon some enterprising accessory maker (or 3) will come out with a rack that will fit the tail gate to correct this relatively minor problem? How, exactly, is the V6 Honda Accord Hybrid misguided?
