So what kind of engine is in the new Honda truck? I see some big potential for a swap! Lots of torque... in a Honda....

it's 4wd. I dont expect to see to many swaps. Its doable, but the amount of work is crazy.

OOO, I like! Not that bad at all. One of the most well balanced engines I have ever seen from a Honda, and giving a truck VTEC? It's kind of sweet in a car loving kind of way.

You may not like the truck, but it's good for a Honda first. Plus it's a Honda, the capabilities of a Ford? And it'll run forever.
