Hondas have a reputation for durability and value. This is our third Honda. Those before had no problems beyond routine maintenance. You take care of a Honda and it will last.
It is right sized for the urban home owner that needs an occasional truck. Its towing capacity is just right for my needs for occasional loads of dirt or rock in my 1-ton trailer. The in bed trunk is also innovative and great for storage.
Braking is good, front and side curtain airbags are standard. Highly rated in crash ratings. Safety also sold me.
