The motors don't, but the cycles themselves do!
What have you hauled lately?

*** POST your pics of hauling and/or towing ***
Just thought it would be fun to see the various uses of the G2 Ridgeline's versatility in hauling stuff in the bed and/or towing... I've seen a number of pics in various threads but thought it would be good to put all into one thread.
This was mine over the weekend hauling musical instrument/PA gear for a gig on Saturday night, with room in the front and back seats for my wife and 22 yr old son to help "roadie"... I found that it can haul as much gear as my 2005 Chevy Avalanche did with the RL's back seat flip up and in bed trunk.
Guitars, Amp head in roadcase, 3 level toolbox with cables and gear, 18" powered subwoofer, (2x) 12" powered speakers, Effects rack, Mixer, 4x12 speaker cab (backseat area), various mic/speaker stands, etc.

I'd already unhooked the straps as I was in a rush to beat the rain that was starting to fall, but snagged a pic hauling 10 bales of hay back today. The hay stacker didn't pack the bales quite right to have all 10 even with the cab, so the 10th had to go on top. Traveling with a 3 tall stack isn't my preference given the distance/speed I travel with the hay, but we made it back! This tiny stack of orchard and alfalfa was nearly $300... 
These are going to be some expensive lamb this year.

How're the 255 65 tires working out so far? Any rubbing? Any noticeable difference in handling, etc.?Just loaded up my new P255/65/18 tires for install tomorrow morning.
Moved some pellets. One trip with the truck vs multpile wheelbarrow trips to the garage.

We have a contractor renovating our master bathroom and I've picked up a few things at Home Depot so he can concentrate on the bathroom project.

Some OSB sheets to protect the lawn where he walks from his trailer to the master bedroom door that opens to the back porch.

Please tell me you made sure he saw you open the Ridgeline's trunk, and stood there staring in amazement

@Engine95 - Thanks! I'm in Oxford, MS (about 60 miles south of Memphis).
Normally things would be a lot greener by now, but we had one really bad day in December that has damaged/killed every evergreen shrub in the area. It was 55 degrees and sunny in the afternoon and 8 hours later we were in single digits with wind chills below freezing. It was the first freeze of the season and the plants didn't have time to acclimate. Every azalea, gardenia, nandina, loropetalum, camellia and ligustrum in the yard looks completely dead. I'm hoping to see signs of life in the next week or two, if not I have about 40 shrubs that I'll have to replace.
@Pleease - I should have left the ratchet straps in the trunk so I could show it off for the guys who helped me load the tub and OSB at Home Depot. I will say the guy who helped me load the OSB was a little surprised to see the sheets load flat in the bed.

When I first got my 2007 (in 2011) I met some guys at a golf course, and when I opened the tailgate sideways and popped the trunk to grab my clubs/shoes my buddy said "what the h*ll?!" and then I think he called me a sorcerer, lol.@Engine95 - Thanks!
