Just the Right Truck

I was looking for the right truck. I was frankly partial to the F150. When I really checked it out, it was too big. The Honda Ridgeline is perfect for me. It is a truck that drives like the Accord. It holds the road and is comfortable- no big vehicle sway. It has plenty of power and very driveable. The bed is rugged and comes lined. Also, there is a hatch in the bed that opens to a trunk that is lighted. There are stadium style rear seats with plenty of room. It has a Garmin GPS which is far more accurate than those that come with cars. For me, the only downside is that it doesn't have memory for the driver's seat position. The other downside is the tailgate doesn't lock.

Best truck I've ever driven

This is by far the best truck I've ever driven. All the features and safety ratings are top notch. You couldn't drive a better truck. The tailgate alone with the extra truck space is amazing. The sound system and navigation is top notch.

THE TRUCK WITH LOTS OF PLUSES

This is the most comfortable truck I have ever ridden in. It rides like a nice car rather than a truck. It has excellent pick up upon acceleration. The dashboard looks very handsome and the arrangement of the switches and gadgets are very practical. I am very pleased with this vehicle!

A Total Disappointment!

There is almost nothing I like about this vehicle. In fact, it is a very poor match for my comfort and driving style. and I can't wait to get rid of it after only 2 years and 5,000 miles. The Ridgeline has 52,000 miles, it has died twice in my driveway for very stupid reasons (ie left windows open overnight and the remote key had a dead battery), stranded me in the outback of Oregon on it's virgin road trip with a remote keyless entry computer module that was dying 85K miles before it should have, alot of road noise at freeway speeds ( I keep checking to see if a window is open), a forward speed of 5 mph without applying the gas, the gas and brake pedals are way up high and my foot slides off the gas and under the brake pedal because even with the 24 seat adjustments I'm unable to reach the pedal unless in the knee-to-chest position, the digital display causes eyestrain and requires taking eyes off the road because it is too far from driver's seat, all "features" have flat/black/sleek buttons that can't be read or felt in the dark or even during the day because the icons are miniscule, the "premium" stereo can't tune in to basic radio stations without intermittent signal loss and static, even in populated areas, wiith bad quality audio. The tailgate does not lock unless you buy an aftermarket part which is NOT currently available and costs $200.+ I can't get my skis into the inbed trunk. I have gone through 2 recalls, the hood latch that could likely come loose in windy driving and hit the windshield, and the wire harness that hooks up the back-up camera can get caught and destroyed in tailgate hinge.....which in fact I figured out before the recall was announced. Only once did the back up camera actually work. I actually have 2 dings in the exact same place when I backed into my garbage can. This truck has alot of blind spots despite the warning system. I actually feel that driving this truck is dangerous for me. The Owner's manual is so dumbed down, and contents hard to find due to wierd naming of typical parts, it is pretty useless and tiring to try and find answers. So, I am back to driving my 2000 Toyota Tacoma SR5, Thank goodness I still have it! It starts EVERY time, Is so comfortable compared with the Honda, which causes me back pain. I can play my CDs and the radio when tuned is a pleasure to listen to. bye bye Honda. I did like my '84 Accord but it was a lemon, the'92 Accord was better. But, my previous good opinion of Honda has changed, most likely permanent. I asked a dealer if they wanted to buy the Ridgeline, but they already have one dead in their lot and no parts to fix the back up camera. Luckily, another shop had the parts and I'm scheduled for repair next week. Hope it will sell SOON! and I will be done with this nightmare.
