Ive had my Ridgeline for a year now. I live in a metro with around 1 million people, but drive to home to Montana all the time. Its perfect for me. It can carry all my junk, pull a camper with a go kart in it, carry 5 people with 5 mountain bikes, and has one of the best AWD systems I have ever used. Glad I got it.

In the past two weeks I've been able to sit in a Tacoma, Frontier, Maverick, Santa Cruz, a Bronco (the big one), and a Ridgeline. I only test drove the Ridgeline because each of the other vehicles had a fatal flaw (for my useage). Tacoma had terrible ergonomics, seat is too close to the floor which makes your legs stick out straight when seated + you are so low in the cab you don't have good visibility out of the cab. The Frontier, while the new style looks great, still felt like an 'old' truck. And the interior was rather small. It would work, but I'm looking for 'good', not 'will work'. The Maverick looked nice, had a really cool interior, but was pretty tight on the inside. And while the inside looked cool, it was 100% plastic. The Santa Cruz, man, that bed is tiny. To the point of being useless. The Bronco, what can be said. It's a dam cool SUV. It looked cool, you felt cool just sitting in it, but at the end of the day - no bed, so it was out. - I have to say, the interior of the Ridgeline blows the competition away, if on nothing else, the shear volume of space. It's just sooooo wide. The seats are roomy, the headroom is to the moon (I'm 6'-4'). Legroom is good. THE TELESCOPING STEERING WHEEL ACTUAL COMES BACK FAR ENOUGH to accommodate my long legs with the seat pushed aaaalll the way back. The armrest, magical. By comparison, all the other vehicles (except the Bronco) felt like I was in a sardine can (not that that are way too small, but BY COMPARISON... they are tiny). - And what is a pickup truck really all about? The bed. At the end of the day, how functional is the bed? That's really what you get a pickup for. The Ridgeline wins here too*. And the bed is noticeably wider AND the wheel wells DO NOT project up - meaning the WHOLE bed is flat. Then add in the door swing tailgate + the giant lockable trunk... Just wow. Only the Frontier and Tacoma offer something that the Ridgeline doesn't. That's a full 6' bed. To get it on the Frontier, you have to drop down to an extend cab. You can get a 6' bed on a crew cab with the Tacoma, but it's a reeeeally long truck. - I did not test drive the other trucks so I can't speak to how they drive. But I did drive the Ridgeline. I've been in a Ford Ranger for the past 20 years. So the 'driving dynamic bar was low' for me. Still, super smooth, super quiet, plenty of pep, handled well, smoothed out very rough pavement. I should note, I use my Ranger as a truck on a weekly basis. Mostly for hauling my bicycle to trailheads, but also for Home depot runs, dump runs, grocery store runs, general shopping, etc. I also just seem to need a truck pretty often. This last week I had to move my work office. Two trips, but hauled what I needed. I can say, without a doubt, that the Ridgeline could have done just as well hauling everything I've ever hauled over the last 20 years - but it would have been soooo much more comfortable... - I had posted a comment here a few months ago about the Ridgeline being too expensive. But after cross shopping, I have found it's actually pretty competitive. The big reason is there is no 'base trim' on the Ridgeline. There are only 3 real trims on the Ridgeline, but really the only difference is a few amenities. The 2nd tier adds leather, a sunroof, and a couple more safety features. The top trim adds a few more 'fancy pants' options. They all have the same engine, transmission, awd system, i.e. they hall have the same bones. Whereas the competition's 'base trim' truly knocks off huge chunk's of what you get. 4x2 instead of 4x4. 4 cylinders instead of 6. Solid plastic interiors. I found when you spec the competition to the same level of features, the Ridgeline is 'right in there'. A little more expensive than some, a little less than others. - - The Ridgeline will be my next truck. - - Too be honest, I wasn't looking for the Ridgeline. I had, like many, discounted it as 'not a real truck'. I had wanted to get a truck with a manual (because I've never not had a stick - yes, my first Ranger had a stick, as does the one I own now). So the Tacoma was the only truck to offer a stick but once I realized the Tacoma was a terrible 'fit', I opened up my search to trucks with an automatic. I looked at the Sants Cruz, because it was 'new' and 'hot'. While it was too small, it did put the thought of 'well, the Ridgeline is a bigger version might as well give it a look'. So glad I did.

I only have a couple counterpoints that hold me back on the Ridgeline: I hate the dash design. The infotainment is better in my Ram Classic. The wheels look like spare tires. The bed is a good size but it's really shallow and I don't know why they didn't just make the sides taller. It sits so low to the ground that some of the utility of a truck for taking stuff a bit off road feels vulnerable. They are so close to getting it right, but it needs just a couple things.

I've driven a ford ranger for the past 20 years (sold it yesterday, shed a tear!). In those 20 years I've never even come close to needed big ground clearance. Of course I don't go super off road.

I owned a 2006 Ridgeline RTL for 6 years. I freaking loved it. I test drove a Tacoma and Frontier as well before buying the Ridgeline. The Honda is a far superior every day driver. I did tournament bass fishing and it could hall a 20 foot Stratos bass boat all day up hills. I took it on some dirt trails and it just left my friends Tacoma in the dust. The suspension handled the bumps and uneven dirt surface way better than a “truck”. All in all, if you want a “truck”, then go get one. If you want something like a truck but way more superior in every day driveability, then get something like the Ridgeline.

The Honda Ridgeline is the truck for someone who needs a truck but doesn't want a truck; it is the best homeowner truck, and the most honest truck in it's segment. The HPD package, to me, feels like Honda executives had a meeting and decided that because every other truck out there has an appearance package that they should have one too, because people will pay for it, and this is an easy way to dip their toes in the water.

Great review! My 72 year old father recently traded a first gen for the new gen and swears by these. He gets a new Super Duty every 2-3 years for his shop, but will only commute in the Ridgeline. As he puts it, I am too old to climb in and out of a big truck and get bounced around unless I need the capacity. The ride is great, you can get a colored match cap and he tows a small fishing boat to Canada a few times a year.

But the HK does have a 8 band EQ and other settings to tune vs the Bose's treble and bass sliders. I would say the back seat listening experience is worse in the Volvo then the Mazda, but I could have had settings wrong. I realize these are two completely different vehicles BUT the fact that the stereo in $28k compact economy car is matching on some levels to a $65k luxury SUV is very impressive for Mazda. I hope that Mazda lets Bose make just as many (if not more) decisions on tuning and speaker placement for the other models as they get updated.

@@BoatsNhoes44 I tip my hat to your mechnical abilities. In my lifetime, I have rebuilt engines and transmissions and everything in between. Even though I have a full workshop, I have aged to the point that after watching what is involved in changing a timing belt (watch any youtube video) it is not something I would do. The labor rate for timing belt/tensioner/water pump is 5 hours for someone that does auto maintenance for a living. I do not intend to spend 5-6 hours doing a routine maintenence item. My point in making the comment is simple; In my mind, it is ridiculous to pay $40k for a new (this is 2022) vehicle and have the manufacturer list costly and timeconsuming "routine" maintenance items between 60-100K miles. Honda was sued in the 1990s over timing belts that broke long before the recommended 100K. So what did Honda do, they changed the recommendation to 60-100K miles based on driving conditions. So now if it breaks at 65K what do you think the dealer will say? And if you think that they also must have made sure that the belt will last over 100K, then read the recall on the 3.5 V6 for premature timing break issues as late as 2019. Routine should only mean normal wear items: tires, wipers, plugs, fluids, pads but certainly not disassembly of the front of an engine. Today, there is no advantage to a belt over a chain other than Honda does not want to spend the money to redesign their engines (but it is ok for the consumer to spend $$) even though every other major manufacturer has.

Fix the front fender flares, make HPD mean something performance oriented and they would have a winner with this trim package. 2” lift? More horsepower? Something more off-road ready, skid plates? Anything would have helped seal the deal.

Honestly a HPD version of a unibody "truck" even with a lift doesnt make it any more off road capable. You hit one decently sized rock going 15 MPH and you're bending something. If you want to off road get body on frame, if you're keeping it on road and doing light towing then this will do what you need it to.

Honda did a great job with the redesign. The Honda dealers in my area can't keep them on the lot, because they're selling so fast.

Since we've had the Ridgeline our 2nd car just sits in the garage most of the time, I've owned multiple trucks over the years majority have been full size half ton, only reason I ever needed a full size truck is when I was towing a large camper (which I don't have anymore) the Ridgeline fulfills my truck needs while also satisfying my wife's SUV/Sedan needs, we use it for absolutely everything, commute to work, mall shopping/grocery getter, home depot runs, hauling cargo trailer, transport dirt bike's, cargo rack on top equipped can be used for kayak/cargo, tailgating, hauling bicycle's the rack fits in towing receiver same as SUV, the upper level trims have the better audio system, overall saves us money we don't need to purchase an expensive SUV for a second car when the Ridgeline fulfills that need,

Always liked these as an around town truck that can occasionally go offroad I appreciate all the tricks makers are putting into tailgates and beds.

Namely, removing Sport mode & not offering paddle shifters which are available on the Holden Commodore. There are some features I would have liked such as rain sensing wipers and HUD but the transmission is a dull spot in an otherwise perfect car. It needs juuuuussst a bit more sport to its character.

I agree completely

This is the only truck I'd even consider. AWD, magic seat, 2-way tailgate, trunk and comfortable ride for the win. Not interested in this fruity HPD pkg though.

I think the Ridgeline has had huge impacts on the "me too" so-so truck market. They all might as well have been from China, where they are all the exact same truck made in the same plant with minor cosmetic changes to differentiate them from one another and the badge of the company paying for their manufacture on the front. Since the Ridgeline, you've got the "tailgate wars" now and options besides leaf springs in the back to make the ride more digestible. You've got new unibody contenders entering the market now as well. It's a big shake up, and no one talks about it. Most reviewers still act like the dual tailgate is new or something, which is over 10 years old now. No one ever mentions the lack of fender wells in the bed, or the bed lighting, and so on. The bed also comes sprayed by default, so no painted metal nonsense. I could go on and on but anyone reading gets my point by now. I think your take on the ridgeline was good about 7 or 8 years ago. It's a bit long in the tooth now. Your take on the HPD package is spot on though. It's a big miss by Honda.

I own a ‘21 Sport. The HPD is totally unnecessary, aesthetic only package $2800. I love how smooth and practical it is, good mpg, all-around capability. It does many things well but really enjoy the torque vectoring and AWD modes which is better than most 4x4 in that you can drive it at higher speeds.

I purchased my 2023 Ridgeline HPD last month. I did the usual shopping around with Ford, Nissan, and Chevy midsized trucks. Every dealership I visited said the same thing about Ridgeline not being a real truck. I test drove the Ridgeline last, and for my needs, the other real trucks couldn't compare. It also helps that I couldn't care less what other people think about my choice. This may be a deal breaker to the macho crowd trying to impress their buddies.

My family owned this and we used it as a workhorse at the farm. Still had great fuel economy, nice interior, and that good old honda reliability. Sound system sucked and a few other drawbacks but as a workhorse this thing never let us down so much so that my parents want another one.

Exactly what I need. Put 20k on my new 2019 Ridgeline Sport. I'm 95% Satisfied. Comfy enough, safe to drive, economical, good interior storage, and easy to park. Deficits: I prefer an 8' bed, better radio sound, a heated driver seat, and heated mirrors.

I'm driving my 2nd Ridgeline. Currently, I have a 23 Black Edition, and I absolutely enjoy it! Then again, I don't off-road, but I still need a pick-up truck for various reasons. When I don't need a pick-up, the Ridgeline is an absolute pleasure to drive! I'm pushing 60 years, so the "Macho Factor" doesn't apply anymore, although I must admit, it once did. If that's still a thing in one's life, so be it, buy something else. And, when that has run it's course, Welcome to Ridgeline!

I really like my Ridgeline drove a Chevy Z71 4x4 for years and hands down would pick the Ridgeline over the Chevy in almost every category except ground clearance... The thing I like most about it is that it's a lot more agile sporty and fun to drive than the traditional pickup the other thing that's awesome is when I do 4 hours of driving my back doesn't hurt at the end of the day from truck bumps... The handling is stellar of course a couple of twin turbos would be nice for performance... but I have no problem getting ahead of bigger trucks especially on the highway..

This is a fantastic truck. I'm buying my 4th one next week

I have a 2007 (2nd model year) Ridgeline RTS. Bought it in 2009 and have put 150,000 of it's 175,000 miles on the original powertrain. I use the trunk DAILY. I drive it like I stole it DAILY. I work construction, aside from regular commuting, it has hauled more than it's fair share of rocks, concrete, plywood, drywall, and debris. It has hauled toys to the desert, flat-towed my Ford Ranger around town, and helped people move with my 16' trailer. I've driven it on the beach, in mud, snow, and on rocky mountain trails that tested the VTM-4. At 6'1", I'm extremely comfortable in it and had no problem with 2 car seats in the back or 5 full-grown adults. For all of the sneers, insults, and surprised looks I get from "truck" people (that thing has a trunk?!), my "not-a-real-truck" does more real truck duties than most, but does it without destroying my kidneys or refusing to fit in my garage. If I want to haul 10,000 lbs, I'll buy an F250. If I need a 40-degree approach & departure angle with front and rear lockers I can build something to do that. For my daily driver that hits harpin turns well above the rated speed and parks at Home Depot every couple of days but also drives to my kids' school and the dog park, it's hard to justify anything other than the Ridgeline. That said, the Ridgeline has always been the black sheep of Honda. They aren't building it to make tons of money or tackle the segment. They build it with systems and powertrains that they already have in place (low investment cost) for the main purpose of retaining current owners in the Honda family when they *need* a truck. They don't market or support the Ridgeline well. It is a placeholder to keep people like me from jumping to Ford or Toyota while their spouse drives an Accord or Pilot.

I picked up one this year. I needed to do truck things, but nothing overly crazy. I don't go offroading in my free time, but I do go camping, multi-day hikes, mountain biking, motorcycle riding, paintballing, and regularly do housing projects. The bed size, tow rating, and interior space is pretty perfect for me. At most I'm going in some muddy fields/trails, but places people are trying to take their cars and where my Subaru is usually more than capable. I really needed the bed so I can stop tearing up the inside of my cars with a lot of these trips to the hardware store, plus the additional space for those projects. I still find the bed more convenient for biking and what not compared to something like an SUV.

I saw one of those exact spec Ridglines here in Maui and I thought it was an auto zone special 😂 I totally thought the stickers and gold wheels were just tasteless mods lol! I never would’ve guessed it came like that from factory🤦‍♂️

Agreed, I don’t mind the ridge line as a truck guy but that HPD package is an abomination.

Pretty much spot on about being a truck for people who don’t want a “truck.” That’s why I bought it. I just needed a comfortable highway cruiser that could also tow a boat and be handy for trips to Home Depot. Pretty much what this thing excels at. They should’ve at least offered the Canadian sport model as the HPD version in the US, many more standard features on our base sport version than yours.

I had the original model year Ridgeline (2006) for several years and really liked it. Everything said here is right on target: steering, ride and handling are solid, incredibly versatile in terms of interior space and storage, and just a very good option for folks who don't want or need body-on-frame truck performance. The whole argument that "this ain't no truck!" really shouldn't enter into the conversation because Honda filled a niche by building a more urban-focused SUV-type vehicle with a bed. There are plenty of great trucks out there for the crowd that needs them, but I swear I see plenty of F-150s, Rams, Silverados, etc. that look like they never pulled a trailer or hauled a payload. One thing I don't get here is the HPD package - it doesn't seem to do anything but throw a few badges, cool wheels and different paint job on a regular Ridgeline for an extra $3K.

Excellent review! Congrats on 500K!

"The big problem is, this doesn't have the cool factor of a truck." ....the cab has more room than a Tacoma, Ranger, Colorado and Frontier. It can tow 5,000 pounds and has a pay load of 1,600. Drives smoother than any other midsized truck and has the quality of a Honda. This truck is exactly what 90% of truck buyers actually need. If someone is willing to sacrifice that , while most likely paying more, because it's not "cool" than they are the ones with the problem, not the Ridgeline. Too many people driving big "cool" trucks just to make them selves look like a badass. Two neighbors of mine each own full size pickups yet they don't tow anything or haul anything except their kids to daycare every morning. I own an 08 Ridgeline with 190k miles. Best vehicle I have ever owned. Of course I get the comments from the neighbors "that's not a real truck" while I'm actually getting more use out of mine than they are out of theirs.

Agreed 100%. I got a 2006 Ridgeline with 81,000 miles on it to keep miles off my Civic Type R. It definitely sounds better (with a short ram intake especially) than my Type R.

I had a 19 Sport as a company car (cheap to me). I absolutely want to admit... prior to having one I was unimpressed and never would have considered one. But after 3yrs and 50k miles it was about the best vehicle I've ever had. We miss it so much that we just ordered a 23 RTL-E as our next family vehicle. That 19 Sport got 31.7mpg on 1000+ mile road trips, was flawless in the snow, had cold AC, the trunk was awesome (used daily), and in general it was just excellent to live with. The cons.... It didn't look like a traditional truck. I wish it had some 31" BFG's on it just for looks.. (even though it was ok as-is) I had a sport model which was a base model, so it was missing some features like power seats, tilt down mirrors, heated mirrors, ect... The cloth seats got dirty and had to be cleaned several times a yr We had zero problems with it and I actually miss that truck. Overall I must say I miss that truck a lot. And so does my wife. So this time I'm getting a loaded version and expect it to be a 10+ yr keeper.

I don't haul dirty cargo enough to make that an asset, anyway. The Element had all the utilitarian charm with maximized interior passenger space (as long as you never needed to haul 5 or more people) and was reasonably economical to buy and own long-term.

This truck is amazing. It is the most useful, and great handling truck I've ever owned. I've done road trips in dirt roads and climbed over some rocks (with a spotter) and the diffs do incredible things. I do that once or twice a year. Because of this I only wish Honda would provide more ground clearance (at least match a freakin' Outback!). (my car: MY19 RTL AWD)

I bought my first “SUV” when the lady at the license branch didn’t even know what a UV was and apologized for it appearing on my vehicle registration. Things have changed a lot in those 30+ years. I actually think a Honda Ridgeline with a canopy could be the absolutely pinnacle of an SUV. We see Hyundai referring to their Santa Cruz as a Sport Activity Vehicle. For people like me who ride, paddle, camp, DIY all in a daily driver, the Ridgeline has the potential to be the best solution. Which MAY be why now others like Ford and Hyundai are creating their own versions.

Congrats on 500K, guys

I want a Ridgeline to fly under the radar, with typical Honda styling. The HPD version is the polar opposite of it. They should call the HPD package the "Pontiac Aztek Appearance Package". Also, black plastic trim is the opposite of practical for most people - especially in hot, sunny climates - it fades quickly, gets white if wax hits it, and needs special treatment to keep it looking decently. Just paint EVERYTHING the same and make car care easier, please.

I bought a 2021 Ridgeline after test driving all the other midsized trucks, and it’s been an incredible value. It’s a DIY powerhouse, and it’s significantly more affordable than a full sized truck, while still able to carry drywall and plywood flat in bed. The AWD system is significantly better than my spouse’s Subaru CrossTrek, and it goes through Vermont dirt roads and trails no problem. I’m not going to say you’ll see a Ridgeline near Moab, but frankly I don’t live in the income bracket that can drop 70K on an over landing truck anyway.
