2017 Honda Ridgeline consumer reviews

low mileage 14's cost as much as a new one, like the quirkey last gen, but 17 more refined and more comfortable

Purchased a new 2017 Ridgeline with towing package and no wiring harness for trailer lights . Honda declares wiring harness is part of the package but dealers want you to pay extra for install . Seems they would or should have made me aware of this fact before I drove it off the lot .

This truck is perfect for anyone who does DYI projects, gardens, etc... but needs a comfortable ride for the daily commute or long road trips. Couldn't be happier.

First off, the exterior of the Ridgeline Black Edition is so sexy and I'm absolutely in love with it . The seats are splendid. The drive is smooth and quiet, but exhilarating with the all windows and moonroof open. The sound system is amazingly clear and crisp. I had to get used to the infotainment system without a knob, but it's growing on me. The bed of the truck is revolutionary, with awesome sound resonating from the side speakers. I also love the trunk/ice chest with its drain. It has just enough pick-up to get the job done, but there is a slight delay after putting the pedal to the metal, which is why I gave "Performance" 4 (instead of 5) stars.

I traded in my beloved Tacoma for the new Ridgeline and this truck is leaps and bounds above the Tacoma. I was also looking at a Chevy 1500 and whenever I would bring up the Ridgeline to the Chevy sales rep they would say "if you're looking for a real truck ride" or "if you want to pull 11 thousand pounds" stay away from the Ridgeline. I'm not really sure what they meant by a "real truck ride", but I prefer the Honda over the 1500. One thing I really love is the wheel wells only stick up in the bed about two inches. I can place plywood down in between them. I had to stack plywood on the top of my Tacoma because of the wheel wells. If you are looking for a truck that will do what 80% of homeowners will ask it to do, get this truck.

I have owned 3 F150's when we were pulling a 5th wheel and I get it....the Ridgeline is medium duty and will not pull a 5th wheel. I traded an Acura RDX Tech in (luxury and performance). With the luxury and performance of the Ridgeline plus it's truck characteristics, I do not miss my beloved RDX! Also, we are long time satisfied Honda customers having owned 1 Civic, 3 Accords, 3 CRV's, 1 RDX and now the mighty Ridgeline!

I test drove the Ridgeline, not once, not twice, but three times and can't believe how smooth it rides. All the reviews that say it rides and feels like a smooth car are absolutely true. The interior is stylish, the back built-in trunk for storage or tailgating and built-in speakers in the truck bed are genius and I know the electrical outlet will come in handy. I saw the live demonstration of the large stones being dumped in truck bed and how durable it is. My sister and family are planning to surprise my brother-in-law with a Ridgeline for Christmas. Can't wait! Highly, highly recommend it!

After I drove the Tacoma the Ridgeline was a no brainer. Smoother, roomer, more powerful and the Ridgeline runs and shifts like a normal vehicle. The comfort of a V6 Accord, the room of a Pilot along with great performance and fuel economy in an AWD? Whats not to like? And it tows my 4,500 lb trailer.

I absolutely love the new Ridgeline. Great ride and handling like a car yet I can haul something if need be.I would not want to use it for a workhorse but it is definitely good for someone like me who occasionally needs to haul something.

After waiting 2 years I jumped at the first trucks available. I was not disappointed. After 10 years of driving light-medium duty pickups this truck is a joy. Smooth, quiet, and comfortable are the words to describe it. You don!t realize it is a truck. You think SUV. Interior is spacious for 5 adults with plenty of innovative storage. Gas mileage is 35 percent better than previous V-6 truck I had with more power. Unless you need heavy duty or serious off road capabilities this is the truck to get.
