It fits all of my needs. It is comfortable to take on trips, can haul all my needs, either for things I need for my home ,on a weeklong fishing trip or a vacation down south. Overall, it is the perfect vehicle for me.

Design, comfort, reliability excellent. Was no wonder CR had it as one of the top rated. Would buy it again in an instant. If it meets your requirements, buy a used one. You won't be disappointed.

Bought our RTL in 2014 w 37k miles on it. After driving & loving SUV's for 18 years, this truck meets our needs beautifully with features like the in-bed trunk and the liftable rear seats. Also love the cargo lights and the versatile tailgate. The rear seats are perfectly comfortable, and when lifted make it easy to travel w two big dogs and a crated cat. This feature adds great cargo space! It's a pleasure to drive, handles very well, with a softer ride than a truck. (Same base as Honda Pilot) With it we've towed utility trailers (don't even know it's there), horses, and boats; and it has performed well. I will say that if you tow a load close to 5,000 lbs up & down mountains & hills, you'll be more aware of having 6 cylinders instead of 8. Although we did this occasionally, the Ridgeline handled it just fine. It's very stable for towing. It handles snow like a pro (we keep Michelin LTX MS tires on it), and we like that is has front wheel drive as well as all-wheel/4 wheel Hi & Lo. A couple of points to consider: 1) The Ridgeline's very comfortable ride isn't as quiet as some vehicles; you will hear some highway noise. 2) The cargo cover we have has Velcro to seal down the sides, but some water can get in at the cab end where the cover connects. We put softside luggage into black trash bags just in case. 3) The design makes for blind spots. Just be more diligent in checking. This has been a reliable, comfortable, very nice truck for our needs. This year my college-age daughter is driving it and loves it! You won't be disappointed.

this truck has a good reputation, nice size, drives well and is a cool looking vehicle. we have downsized to one vehicle and this combines the comfort of our car and the utility of our truck

My wife and I love this truck. I've always wanted a truck, but could never justify paying for a full size pickup. Got this truck at a great price with 47k miles. It drives like a car but has the capabilities of a truck. And it fits in the garage! This thing rocks. The specs are great for a V6. Honda engineers crushed it again with the bed trunk and the rear seats.

The Ridgeline is an awesome truck, I recommend it to anyone looking for a small truck with comfort and reliability. Easy to drive, controls are easy to reach.

This truck was a blast. Love the style, interior and also great because it gets you high above the traffic so you can be safe.

This provides the small truck for hauling firewood and furniture but has a reasonable step up to a huge backseat with room for three carseats for grandchildren. The roomy unibody is stiff and quiet with a comfortable ride. It cruises smoothly down the highway tracking beautifully where pointed with a great sound system. The V-6 gives lively performance when lightly loaded plus a 1500 pound payload and 5,000 pound tow rating, and still gives 22 mpg fuel economy in rural driving. Thoughtful features keep appearing, starting with the tailgate that, in addition to dropping down like most, can also open to the side giving easy close access and an easy bumper step up to the truck bed. That swinging tailgate also provides easy access (as long as nothing is loaded in the rear of the bed) to the unique trunk under the truck bed that holds the clean spare tire and a surprising amount of gear protected from the weather but not cluttering the cab. Lights automatically appear to find anything in the truck bed or the trunk. A soft tonneau cover (aftermarket, but easily found) quickly rolls out of the way for tall loads, but otherwise protects the bed and its contents from the weather. There seems to be a bin or cubby hole everywhere you look. The only real shortfall is very limited rear visibility - particularly anywhere near the vehicle when backing. That is very likely going to make me add some kind of backup camera since my Ridgeline does not include the navigation feature that incorporates one. An outstandingly versatile vehicle that casts the exact same shadow as my old Chrysler LHS.
