Its been almost three years since I purchased this Ridgeline new and so far I can't really complain. I don't remember if I mentioned this in my last update but I had to have the windshield replaced as the result of stone (or some other road debris) striking it. My Ridgeline has the lane keep assist and uses cameras mounted up behind the rear view mirror with a shroud glued or somehow mounted to the windshield. When the windshield is removed the cameras have to be re-calibrated. I checked with several windshield replacement companies (including the bug one advertising on TV all the time) and the cost was extremely expensive. It turned out the local Honda dealer was the lowest cost by over $400 and they use genuine Honda parts. Go figure! The cost of the calibration is actually more than the windshield replacement by itself. As you can see we don't drive a lot of miles per year, around 4K which well below the national average. Nonetheless, this vehicle has served us well. Very good gas mileage, excellent ride, handling and low road noise. The front seats are very comfortable although I don't think I would want to ride any long distance/time in the backseat. I have on a couple of occasions missed my 2013 F150's longer bed but I can still fit a sheet of plywood in the Ridgeline. It just hangs out over the tailgate about 2 feet. I still would recommend the Ridgeline over the other "compact" pickups. It rides and handles better, and the legendary Honda engine is gold standard for durability and reliability.

Bought in March 2017. I previously owned a 2010 F150 and had to downsize because of moving to the city. I thought I would be regretting, but I was wrong. Got highway mileage of 28 mpg and the best on the F150 was 20 mpg. Rides very quiet with a soft car ride. I decided to add 4 pounds of air and feels more like a truck for me. I wish Honda would have options to add to these vehicles. I wanted moon roof and rear sliding window and had to go to upper model. I don't use the OEM navigation, but the Android Auto. That is fantastic with my Samsung smartphone. Adaptive cruise is great except when driver in front is slower and causes a rapid deceleration of your car. The truck is slow to get back to speed when passing. I have to manually accelerate to get to speed. Rain causes sensors to give false alarms and lane departure or lane mitigation sensors do not work while driving on the highway in the rain. This seams to be a problem with these sensors since I experienced the same thing with my 2010 F150. Read the manual, Honda is aware of this weather related problem. Materials are great except that they use thinner outside metal that gets easily dented. Overall I am very happy with my buy. Get many compliments. Update: Overall I am still very happy with my truck. There have been some annoyances. I did not like the sound of the horn of my truck, so I replaced it with an aftermarket. The infotainment system is slow to load and the sometimes I have to try the android auto a few times to load and work properly. It also forces my eyes off the road to make any adjustments on the screen. The controls on the steering wheel do help to minimize eyes off the road. The heated seats buttons do not automatically turn off when truck is turned off and back on. Also act more as a toggle switch. For the price of this truck, I would expect better. The tires are great after 28000 miles. They look good enough to go another 20000.

I really enjoy this vehicle but I do have a few however. I wanted a small pickup to commute and do occasional work. I narrowed my choices down to the Ridgeline, Tacoma and the Colorado. I picked the Ridgeline on comfort and I was able to get a little better deal through COSTCO. I love driving it. Along the way I have found a few things that I am not excited about. My battery went dead and I went to jump start it according to the owners manual. Honda for whatever reason has not made this easy. You have to remove a shield before attaching cables. A huge hassle. Secondly the instrument council controls are not automatically lit. I had to make a drive late a night and wanted to turn off the A/c. Had to turn on cabin lights o see controls. A back light would have been nice. Finally, in todays world I would think a small truck could get 20 MPH average for all driving. My Ridgeline gets 18.5. Disappointing. I would by this vehicle again, I really enjoy it and the dealer I have bought it from has been great. At the end of the day, nothing is perfect. Honda can easily address my "CONS".

Best rider and driver truck hands down

Purchased this truck for my husband. He loves the way it handles and I love the smooth ride. Living in Louisiana and driving on the famous I-10 roller coaster was always a jarring experience. With the Ridgeline you barely feel the bumpy road. There is plenty of room in the rear and for the driver, but I do think the front passenger could use a little more knee room. The swing out rear gate come in handy for easy access to the truck bed. The hidden storage in the bed is great. Overall it is a goid vehicle for our needs and is easier to maneuver and park then the bigger full size trucks. So far so good.

the 2017 Ridgeline interior heat is poor. When you stop the interior heat drops off. Honda stated that this is a design of the vehicle and has no fix. Honda has admitted in court all v6 engines are designed this way.Do not purchase for use in cold climate area's.
