    While Toyota may still be using cheap interior and an under powered 6 cylinder, it does have a good track record. Im still a bit skeptical whether a 4 cylinder w/a turbo is a "reliable" option for heavy towing over years of use. As far as price goes, I don't see enough truck on any of these models to justify spending $50K +. Great review. Thank you!

    I had a choice between a slightly used (6K mile) 23 TRD Off Road, Premium and Technology pkgs, double cab , 6’ bed or an identical 24 Turbo. Ultimately I chose the 23 because of the proven reliability and durability of the 3.5L Naturally Aspirated (NA) V6. Historically a Turbo engine simply doesn’t last as long as a NA engine. The Turbo only gets 1mpg better fuel economy, but after you have to replace the turbo or the engine, it’s cheaper to buy the NA 3.5L V6.

    Think about this: Very few people (close to no one) buys a Ridgeline to go off-roading. Therefore, very few people have much of a clue as to how the Ridgeline behaves off road. I lifted my Ridgeline 2.5in. and put on some Nitto Ridge Grapplers on. I'm not a brand fan boy. I genuinely appreciate all of these trucks and their capabilities, but I'm telling you... The Ridgeline crushes off road. The IVTM4 is incredible and continues to impress me the more I push it. The articulation is not really there, so it won't crawl up crazy boulders like a Jeep, but if you get it up on three wheels, that IVTM will absolutely get you through. More dedicated off-roaders, of course, will have more of those convenience features to make off-roading more comfortable (crawl control, hill descent, etc.) that the RL does not have, but if you got good throttle/brake control and good tires, it'll do work!

    Awesome! Congratulations for your retirement! I am a few years away, and am doing my homework on a 1/2 ton or midsize truck to buy. Why did you buy the Ridgeline, and which trim did you get? That is a vehicle that is on my list; it ticks nearly all of the boxes on my list, just wish the bed were a wee bit longer and it had even 1,000 pounds more towing capacity. Given that, it would be a perfect rig for me. Dependability and reliability is #1 on my list, then comfort, perhaps mpg, then the normal technical specs after that. Thanks in advance for your input!

    While shopping for a pickup truck, I know most of my friends at work recommended me to get the new Taco, but the more I do the research, the more I think Ridgeline is what I needed. A truck drive "like a car" for daily commute, a truck that's not too high or low clearance (I'm small), a truck with nice design interior and exterior looks, has power folding side mirrors and a new nicer dash board (2024), a fair price with no dealer mark up! I also like the V6 because of reability. My current 2007 Odyssey has same engine size with+282K miles on it, I'm skeptical about the new Turbo 4 engine on Tacoma!! I'm not typical guy who buy and trade cars or truck every 5 years or so. That being said, I love the new redesign 2024 Tacoma... But my brain's still thinking towards more on the 2024 Ridgeline Black Edition.

    Lots are commenting about resale value being important for determining a best truck? I mean you buy a truck to use and not to do buy and sell. If whats in the mind is replacing it someday. Just do leasing.

    Leasing a vehicle is the best way to throw away your money. Period. When you a buy a vehicle, it depreciates. That's a given. But residual value over time is wise to consider. Used Tacomas sell for about 6-7k less than the same exact trim/specs brand new (this was true prior to the pandemic, nevermind the ridiculous used car prices now). In theory, I could drive my Tacoma for 10 years and get about half of what I paid for it back if I ever decide to trade it in. Of course I don't want to trade it in, I love my vehicle. But looking at the vehicle as an investment, the Taco is the best bang for your buck long term, and the data backs it up.

    We Love our (my) 23 Toyota TRD Off Road double cab with the Premium and Technology pkgs and the 6’ bed. I had the choice of a slightly used (6K mile) 23 TRD or the redesigned 24 with the Turbo 4cyl. Historically a Naturally Aspirated (NA) engine is more durable and reliable than a Turbo. So that’s why I chose the 23.

    Yeah, well- we'll see in the coming years. But I'm betting pretty strongly that the Frontier is going to be the leader in reliability for at least the next few years. Credit to Nissan for keeping it simple- the naturally aspirated V6, the 9 speed tranny, nothing too crazy- just a good ol' pickup truck built on rails like it should be. The Ridgeline is nothing but a Honda Pilot with the back hacked off. It's an SUV that can haul a few more items.
