Just bought the truck but am enjoying it. Comfortable. Only thing I don't like is the fact that the tail gate does not lock.

2018 Honda Ridgeline Black Edition 4dr Crew Cab AWD SB (3.5L 6cyl 6A)

After seeing for the first time the Ridgeline Black Edition I like it very much and since my Accord 2007 has started showing its age I went to the Honda Dealer in Elmhurst, IL basically to purchase the car. When there I asked for a test drive and after waiting for a couple of minutes I was invited to drive the car. The driving experience is very good, not great but good and this is a quality I was looking for in a pick up truck, the brakes are responsive the car accelerates from the stop very decently, with authority and assurance of AWD, passing on the highway and merging into traffic creates no problem for 3.500 cc 280 HP engine. I like the interior, I like the two tone color seats I like how roomy the cabin is and how one can easily rearrange the back seats to accommodate even a mountain bike without the need of removing the front wheel. Unfortunately the good staff ends here, maybe I should blame my over usual height since I am 6'3", do not know but my Accord EX-L V6 accommodates me very well so I do not really know that. The Ridgeline offers the smallest legroom for the driver in the class by at least 1.5" to Frontier, 2" to Tacoma and even more to the twins by GMC 4.1" which for me creates the problem, the entertainment system is not only missing the volume and channel knobs but is very, very slow and need update badly, just to connect my phone to the Car Play took about a half of hour, the navigation is slow and the picture is not very sharp, the new Accord has this system much, much better. Another issue I have with the car is the missing ventilated seats, I live in Chicago when summer is very hot and sticky but people living is south part of the USA are in need of cooled seats even more and in this price range, around $40G it should be a standard, the Honda has it in the Accord which even in the best Touring trim is much cheaper than the Ridgeline, GMC offers this convenience but not Honda. The ventilated seats would be much more appreciated by the drivers over the speaker system in the side wall of the loading area. The one, and the last item I don't like on this good car is that if I get it I would not be able to secure my cargo, anybody can approach the car and open the tailgate, two ways! To put the lock in the tailgate, like everybody else should not be too expensive. There are four reasons why I did not buy the Honda Ridgeline and I mentioned all of them above, I am hoping that the Honda will implement the above improvements, it should not be too expensive to do so at least for the highest trims like RTL-E and Black Edition.

I purchased the 2018 Honda RTL-T ridgeline January 3rd, 2018. In one week my truck developed ice build up inside the cap less gas tank. The ice blockage caused the outer plastic flap to burst and had to be removed by utilizing a hairdryer and screwdriver, not to mention the inconvenience of not being able to fill up on gas. August 13th, 2018, driving to work I noticed the engines RPMs were fluctuating drastically up in the 7000rpms range and would not drop below 4000rpms, with pressing the accelerator. I was able to drive the truck to the local Honda dealership and was told I needed a new transmission. I was shocked to believe a Honda with 21,930 miles needed a new transmission. Disappointed to say the least. Also, my driver side window needed a replaced regulator to make the window function.

No Tail Gate lock

Can't believe that Honda engineers were so clueless as to not provide a lock for the 2 way Tail gate. I need to carry small cargo and it will not all fit into the trunk. Honda needs to re-think this and provide some work-around to owners. Lesson learned look at even the smallest detail and do not depend on the sales staff to tell you about negatives with thee vehicle.

This is a very quiet, great handling, great driving ride with good visibility, great safety features, great seating position, better crash ratings than it's competition, better acceleration and better gas mileage, What more is there to say. We love the large trunk in the pick-up bed. Most recently owned rides with which I compare the Ridgeline were: 2012 and 2014 Grand Cherokee Overland Summits, 2014 Ford Explorer Limited, 2013 Ford Edge Limited, 2012 Chevrolet Traverse LT, 2011 and 2012 Ford F150 Platinum with Ecoboost, 2010 Chevrolet Tahoe LT, and 2009 Chevrolet Avalanche. I was disappointed in the limited turning radius which makes the vehicle difficult to park.
