The best driving truck I've ever owned

It drives and handles great . It also pulled my two horse trailer just fine . I love the sound of the radio especially the way it comes out of the bed of the truck.

Best vehicle I have owned so far!

Traded in a 2015 Nissan Murano on the Ridgeline. Was absolutely amazed with the ride, handling and quietness of the Ridgeline as compared to the Nissan suv. Now I have the comfort of a car and a new pickup truck ! Couldn't be happier, plus the professionalism of sales personnel at the dealership!

Honda Ridgline is a great choice!

My AWD V-6 Honda Ridgeline RTS provides the convenience of a mid-size truck and the comfort and good looks of a SUV! Tested a Chevy Colorado but it felt cramped and the seats were not as comfortable as the Ridgeline which has a roomy interior with great storage space--can comfortably seat up to 4 adults (5 adults if 3 are smaller) since there is no mid-line floor hump. I use it on a daily basis for commuting, but plan to drive it to the mountains for vacations and to do some towing since it is rated to tow up to 5,000 pounds. It has plenty of electronics to keep me entertained on the road. I can easily switch to/from cruise control and reset the user-friendly climate controls. With the quick push of a button I can switch to economy fuel setting that reduces the fuel use when I don't need full power. Mileage is right on the mark as advertised--is running between 18 and 23 miles per gallon gasoline. I love it!

best ruck so far

This truck met my needs. No use for a big gas guzzling truck. Although I would love to see at least a 6ft. box.

Best truck, I've ever owned

This Truck is awesome... At first I was hesitant because, I've had full size trucks in the past. I'm not a contractor and thought I would get something that I would enjoy driving daily. Tested Toyota Tacoma and Chevrolet Colorado. I wasn't impressed and felt really cramped in the Toyota. The Chevy had more room but felt like the same 'ole same 'ole thing. I drove passed a Honda dealer and they had one in front of the dealership. I test drove the RTL-T and boy what a difference. Tons of room, really great performance and the technology and interior quality was awesome. Needless to say, I bought it and have since put on 10k. I actually can't wait to have to go somewhere, so I can drive it... Thanks Honda!!!

Most comfortable pickup, I've ever owned

I cannot express the high level of satisfaction I have with my RTL-T model Ridgeline. I Drive an average of 100+ miles per day and the comfort is exceptional, compared to other pickups I have owned over the past 30 years. I also enjoy the 27 miles per gallon highway average I'm now getting while just hitting 10K... So glad I went with HONDA, owned Ford, Dodge and Toyota's. This kicks their butts hands down...

Great and versatile vehicle

This is the second Ridge I've owned, the first was an 06 and I traded it with 173,000 miles on my 17. Nuff said.

Solid truck, great gas mileage, drives well

Expect it will last a long time, like the features, comfort and milage. Wide body was a deciding factor when compared to Tacoma. Love the under truck bed storage. Lockable, eliminated need for tool box and more secure.

2017 ridgeline review

Very good ride, quality, very quiet, roomy and best of all its a Honda. I think they hit the nail on the head with this one. Only small concern is no locking tailgate, for which there is after market lock available.
