Its a lot like my SportTrac in that regard, but yes, it is a truck, has a 5,000 pound towing capacity, and was Honda's first attempt into that market. The EPA classifies it as a "standard pickup" and Edmunds.com classifies it as a "large truck". At 15 / 20 mpg, I doubt they will be selling many in the next few months. Its a small part of their product mix, so continued lackluster sales of it won't hurt them.
