Works like a truck, drives like a caddie!

It is a great vehicle! It is more than a truck! Very reliable and rides like a dream!! My mileage driving it home from Houston, Tx. to Minn. was over 25 mpg!

Great truck to drive

Easy to drive.....drives like a car but is a truck. great leg room and very comfortable. Takes the road well. good gas mileage . Had a bigger truck but really like the Ridgeline much better.

Love my Ridgeline!

I replaced an older model mid-sized truck with a 2017 Honda Ridgeline, and am loving it. It drives and handles just like our 2016 Honda Pilot, and all the interior buttons, screens, etc, are exactly the same. Also love the storage options -- lots of room under the back seat, the back seats fold up to reveal a flat-floor (perfect for a golf bag), and I really appreciate the 'trunk' underneath the bed (water-tight storage), as well as the swinging tailgate (easier for lifting things into the bed without having to reach). As has been our experience with all Honda vehicles, it also has a great (tight) turning radius -- easy to park.

Fine auto

Did a lot of research on the Ridgeline and after going to the dealer for a test drive was pleased enough to buy on the spot.

Love My Ridgeline

My Ridgleine is spacey and comfortable. I average 23 mpg which is great for a truck. The trunk in the bed of the truck has proven to be very useful. I wouldn't want any other truck.

Ridgeline is top of the line!

A classy truck-car has everything I need. Plenty of space. Exceptional gas mileage. An amazing cabin, a quiet ride. A stylistic design! It's my first "pick up" truck, but it's the best car I've ever owned.Worth every penny.

Best truck

The Ridgeline is by far the best truck in the market today. Honda did a great job thinking of everything you could want in a truck, but still keeping the confortable feeling of a car. My only wish is that they would create a full size version to compete with the Toyota Tundra.

Decent truck

I've own the Black Edition and I like it alot. Exterior design is nice and sleek. But would of been nice if we could decide on a short bed or a long bed. Drive and handles pretty good. But I wish the steering was a little more stiff. Also would of like for the steering wheel to be automatic to move up, down, away and towards you. Best feature I like about this truck is the tailgate and the trunk space in the bed. It is very convenient being able to swing the tailgate out to access the trunk space in the bed. One thing that could be improved on this if possible is to have a tailgate lock. Overall i'm satisfy with the truck

My first Truck

Since using my Subaru Outback for 17 years as my wife calls it your( gardening truck) it was time to find something to keep my garden stuff out of the interior of the vehicle After using friends full size Dodge and Ford trucks I knew I wanted something a bit more refined, small enough to fit in the garage, ,smoother riding, lots of the new safety features and reliable. Having owned a Honda Accord and Prelude in the past I was always impressed with Hondas reliability. So after much research on compact trucks and speaking with owners of the Ridgeline I purchased a 2017 Ridgeline RTL-E lightly used (3000 miles) executive vehicle. The E model because it had all the safety features I desired, my reflexes at 66 are not quite as good as they were years ago and I am finding the parking sensors,backup camera, auto lights, and lane assist pretty great to have. I love driving it, fairly intuitive controls, not crazy about the voice control system it could be better, mileage is OK so far mostly city,very cold weather and averaging 16 mpg but highway 29.It does not come with a CD player which i would have liked or power folding mirrors which would be nice for pulling into the garage. Overall a great vehicle I can see driving for many years.
