Good luck and safe return from the war.

The Ridgeline is superior for traction and bumpy road handling thanks to the indy suspension and other good design. As others have stated here, worlds beyond the 50 year old truck technology from the other makers.

My biggest test was in 14" of wet Midwestern snow and icy hills. Passed with flying colors, while other trucks were stalled in their driveways 10 feet out of the garage. (tee-hee)

As long as you have sufficient clearance you will do well.
