Hey Scotty,

First I wanted to so I love your videos and your practical way of telling the plain damn truth. Breath of fresh air these days.

So I have a question for you. I am currently in a 2023 Honda Ridgeline lease that will end in 2026. I have always been a Honda fan and owned Hondas. Recently with all the changes auto manufacturers are making to hybrids etc and removing available options on engines, I am having a difficult time deciding what will probably be my last car for a long time when the lease is up. This EV and hybrid tech is absurd. Where has the reliability gone with Honda and Toyota. Recall after recall and crappy engine options. I want a vehicle that is going to last me considerably longer when it’s time to replace. I will be 56 at the time of needing to replace the Ridgeline.

What would you recommend being a viable replacement. Since the zrisgeline will probably retain the v6 option, should I consider buying another one, of course they are getting more and more expensive.

Thanks for your time
