To haul a real boat you need a real truck

Here's what EDMUNDS SAYS ABOUT ONE OF THE IMPOSTERS
Criticisms include the Ridgeline's aversion to off-road adventures,
where its lack of a low-range gear and a tendency to bottom out don't
help when tackling more rugged trails. Fuel economy for a V6-powered
pickup is also disappointing.
If these shortcomings are meaningful to you, then you'll want to
consider a pickup with true truck DNA. But if all you really need is the
passenger space of an SUV and the utility of a pickup truck, the
Ridgeline is an excellent choice.
We took a Kia Sorento on some off road adventures in Montana. I can't
say it was suited to the task but we made it back. I did buy the
insurance and it wasn't my car so we just went with it.
There was a lot of scraping and banging.
Is FlaJim planning to take his self-propelled tin motel room offroad on
some rugged trails?
