2nd manufacturing sight?
come on, its a S I T E.
if you are doing this for free, thats one thing but if you get paid, then show a little pride. Spell check doesn't correct homonyms, there has to be some basic intelligence behind the keyboard.

I was two minutes too slow...you beat me to the punch. Or, as Chris Shunk would write, "I was too minutes two slow...."
Chris is so busy interjecting his personal opinion into a news story that he can't be bothered with small details like spelling errors. The real story to Chris is that the Ridgeline styling is a "visual train wreck." This is nothing but a flame looking for some "I love the Ridgeline," or "It's not a real truck!" responses. That's modern internet journalism folks.......when there isn't anything to write about, create something! Hey Chris, maybe you can work for the New York Times!

Wow, you guys are harsh. Let it go and get a life. It's the internet.
It sounds like you guys despise Autoblog! If so then go elsewhere.
I mean, yeah he should have used the correct word but it's not worth writing about.
Maybe you are both Ridgeline owners. LOL
Hope I spelled everything correctly or else the f@$king spelling police will be after me.

Hey guys... thanks for finding my "site" error. Every publication has errors, and even though we try to minimize screw ups at all costs, Autoblog is no different. I'm sure you'll be able to find the occasional gaffe on WSJ or the Times, too. I know I spot plenty of problems here in Detroit in the News and Free Press.
Try to remember that this is a blog, and if we think the Ridgeline is ugly, we're more than within our rights to let you know. We give you the comments section to argue with us free of charge, so that way everybody gets the chance to chime in.

Stewart,
"Stewart" is a proper name. It therefore requires a capital letter. Please use proper spelling in your own screen name before criticizing other people for their spelling.
Sincerely,
thousands of readers you just annoyed

I though it was a play-on-words referring to the Ridgeline's Aztekish looks.

"cheezwhiz"
2 points:
1) I dont get paid for writing on here so I can fall back on the 'amateur' title.
2) a) I can go the route that it is a screen name and can use any manner of letters, numbers, and symbols.
OR b) I can put it back on you that if you are going to criticize me, the look to your own. Cheez Whiz is a proper name for a product produced by Kraft Foods (which is how Kraft represents themselves).
