The Ridgeline has 255HP. The Odyssey has the same engine but it has the 3 cylinder cutoff system (VCM, variable cylinder management). I like that ridgeline. Very strudy and quiet as hell.

The Dodge Magnum and Charger does that. They call it "MDS" or "Multiple-Displacement System". Not sure if any of the trucks have it, but I would assume so...

Quote:
The advanced Multiple Displacement System (MDS) uses electronics to switch from eight cylinders to four during cruising and light acceleration, delivering up to 350 horsepower with the fuel economy of a large V6. The transition is seamless and imperceptible, requiring a mere 40 milliseconds (0.04 seconds) to activate or deactivate the telescoping lifters, fuel injectors, and sparkplugs.

my dads 05 tahoe does that, but not for the sake of saving fuel. if theres a cooling problem and the computer detects heat above the set standard, it shuts down 4 cylinders to help cool the engine down.

My boss just bought one, really nice truck. It's got awesome torque and power. With the independent suspension it rides out like an Accord and has plenty of power to get around with.
