Great truck for the family man

This is the only truck that has 4 wheel independent suspension, so it drives as smooth as a car does. It has a weather proof trunk under the bed that is large enough to hold 3 large golf bags. The tail gate opens 2 ways not just 1. This is the best medium size pickup that is made today.

waited 2 years for the NEW & Improved Ridgeline.

After anxiously awaiting a "total redesign" of the new Honda Ridgeline, I was very disappointed !..Bought the Touring edition, had a reasonable ride, the back seat, was near impossible to access, as the doors only opened to about 45%, the tailgate can't be locked, negating installing bed cover!. Infotainment system was so difficult to manage(no knobs) I had at least 3 defects..within first week of ownership (rusty wheel nuts,deformed leather on pass seat,inoperative tailgate latch)..didn't meet up to my expectations for a Honda! and we have a '16 Accord EX-L which..has had a recall, back-up camera failure, & vibration, within the first 5,000 kilos!..Honda is slipping and resting on its laurels!

A super truck

I wanted a quiet, comfortable truck for personal use, and light hauling. The Ridgeline fits my requirement perfectly.

Amazing Truck!!!

This truck was exactly what I was looking for. Nice and styling. I really wasn't looking for a work truck but it is nice to have something now that if I need to haul something there is no problem. The features are great. I would reccomend this car to anyone!!!

VCM causes vibrations while using cruise control

If you are going to buy one, make sure you drive on a road with inclines and declines while in cruise control. My RTL-T 2 WD has a significant vibration during this time. Dealer has fixed 2 loud vibrations caused by assembly defects, but has not eliminated the main vibration issue. Honda classifieds it has a normal feature. It is not and if you search the web, you will find similar complaints. I test drove a AWD model and the vibration is not there. I love the truck but I know the vibration issue will cause damage and result in costly repairs later.

Smooth ride and sleek look

The Ridgeline took me by surprise! It has the most comfortable ride of I truck I have ever driven, and the design is different and new. Fischer Honda in Ypsilanti did a great job of matching me with a the truck of my dreams with an amazing deal. I will definitely be back if I need any other services.

Just love it!!

Love the all wheel drive. Takes curves and hills with great ease. Lots of cabin head room, leg room and comfortable armrest in the middle. Hidden features are truly captivating. I just love this automobile!!! Have no negatives. Really enjoy the quality of the material used on the seats and dash and armrests. Smartly designed to,accommodate all my needs.

The perfect fit truck

This is a perfect real world truck. It hauls kids, dogs, motorcycles, bikes, tools, and hardware. It's driving dynamics are awesome from pavement to rough forestry roads. The fuel economy and performance have improved from the G1 Ridgeline. The very conservative colour choices and styling are not what they could have been but not a deal breaker

Amazingly versatile truck that drives like a car.

With the fold up rear seats and under bed trunk you have all the perks of a pickup with the storage of a car. It drives smooth with lots of horsepower and still gets good gas mileage.
