Right back at ya.
It's served me well over the last 7ish years.   I wouldn't hesitate to buy another, Looks pretty sharp in black and like the new styling cues.

Ridgeline is ending production in 2014, according to industry sources and will take a 2 year hiatus before being reintroduced.  I hope that 2014 won't be the end.  Can't figure out why sales were so bad, because those who have them really like them.

Because Hondas and Toyotas are running to 250-350 thousand miles, there's no need to buy a new one?  After 5 years our Prius is still operating exactly as it was 108k miles ago - still has most of the original brakes too since so much braking is done via regen.  No reason for a new one, and I'd like to buy another used one for my own commuting (wife has our current one most of the time).  IMO American cars all have built-in obsolescence...

Looks like you are getting some use out of your mud tires.  You'll have to get that thing over to the island.  Little pricey for the ferry but well worth it.  Got some nice Provincial parks over here.

Hey bsea, nice boats! You BC'ers sure live in paddling heaven. I've had boats since 1990, but only tupperware ones--currently a 14.5 Carolina and an older 16' Aquaterra. Unfortunately they're both hung in the garage til my rotator cuff surgery. I've only done Puget Sound, Grays Harbor and a couple week long boat packs on Lake Ozette out here on the Olympic Peninsula.  Dip a paddle for me, will ya?
 
Also, looking at the tires on your HRE. They don't look like any ST tires I've ever seen. They look like LT's, are they, and what brand?

We spend lots of time on Vancouver Island, but for backpacking and kayak trips, we use a tent. It sure was nice to get away in the pod for the long weekend and camp in comfort!

The tires are LT 235/75/R15 and were on the pod when we bought it new in Dec. It says "Mudstar", but we don't know what company makes them.

Hope you can get back to kayaking soon!
