Sharp looking and a pleasure to drive! I like the dual direction tailgate and roomy trunk space under the truckbed.

Transmission fails after 60k warranty

I have had the 2019 Ridgeline since it came out in 2019. I have 73k miles on it and have used its lightly. If you wish to tow anything do NOT buy this vehicle. The rating they give it for towing is way off. We have a 2400lb small teardrop trailer and towed it up to Michigan and back to Florida. That was all the transmission could take. We were VERY careful, still it failed. There was a dealer notice that they spec'd the wrong transmission fluid, but that didn't seem to matter at the service department. Nice car, but NOT a truck.

This little TRUCK will not disappoint you

2019 Honda Ridgeline RTL-E 4dr Crew Cab AWD SB (3.5L 6cyl 6A)

I have had my Ridgeline since September of 2019. I looked for a truck that would be useful for my needs around the house. I did not need a construction site size vehicle and the Ridgeline was rated very high in reviews. I bought the RTL-E and have never looked back. It rides like a car with the convenience of a Pickup. It gets 22 to 23 mpg and that is so much better than any other truck we looked at. I am not really fond of the VCM system but looked around and found a VCM muzzler kit that eliminates the function of that system it is so simple to install and has cause zero issues and never had a check engine light. The truck has plenty of power for my needs. I have right at 35000 miles in it and it just keeps getting better. I recently changed the factory tires and put a set of Michelin Defenders on it and the ride improved and the road noise level diminished to a very comfortable level. I have had only small issues with the truck. The outside mirrors had to be replaced but it was under warranty and it was a known issue for the 2019 Ridgeline/ Pilot and Passport. Other than that I have done the scheduled maintenance mostly myself because it is so easy. I just did a transmission filter and fluid change that took about an hour. I have changed the rear differential fluid every 15000 miles as recommended and have changed the transfer drive fluid once. I have only done filter changed and wiper blade changed other than that. I think the Ridgeline is a great little truck and if yours is as good as mine you will be more than happy with the purchase.

Ridgeline Review by Owner

Good value, plenty of power, friendly infotainment system, comfortable, good gas mileage, nice looking. I like driving this truck. And yes, it IS a truck. Handling is great and I've driven it in snow, heavy rain and sand and I had no problems. The only thing I would change is to add a few more inches of leg room for the driver's seat and I'm only 5' 11".

Does Everything and More

I've owned the full sized trucks. Along with them I've paid for the irritating and expensive minor and major repairs, poor fuel mileage and rough ride. My Ridgeline does everything I ask it to do and I am still in the construction trade. As a matter of fact, it does everything with much more ease, comfort and reliability. In fact, I would say, if you need more truck than this, jump to a 3/4 ton because you need the payload and towing and that's it. This is, by far, the best truck I have ever owned. The dual swing tailgate, rugged and wide enough box bed and multiple tie-downs impress me every time I use them. Not to mention the plush ride, quiet interior and easy parking. I pull my 16ft trailer with only a little effort. I track through snow and mud past the other guys. My impression on the job site is more about me than my truck! Maybe YOU need a bigger truck.
