Does absolutely everything I need it to
by Kate A on 4/3/2026 2:19:25 PM
I sell both Hondas and Toyotas for a living, and the Ridgeline is the only vehicle that suits all my needs. Rides MUCH, MUCH better than a Tacoma or any other truck I've been in for that matter. It has more interior room, a quieter ride, and more comfortable seats. Plus I prefer the AWD with snow mode to having 4WD control in almost every day-to-day driving instance. They ride like a 3rd row SUV with a truck bed. The dual opening tailgate is much easier on the back loading heaving or awkward things in and out of the bed plus the in-bed trunk is genius. It pulls my trailer great and is excellent in both deep snow and ice. Plus, give me the V6 NON turbo engine any day of the week. Plus, the truck-bed speakers and power outlet in the '23 Black Edition are a major plus when I'm out working on the property at the farm. It's my 2nd Ridgeline and as long as Honda makes the Ridgeline, it's all I'll drive. - 4.0
Almost Perfect
by splat on 12/18/2025 2:38:36 AM
After seven months and 12k miles, I've come to really appreciate just how good this truck is. The ride, quietness, comfort and fuel economy of a car, combined with the utility of a truck make it a nearly perfect vehicle. It has the ideal ride and seat height to provide a commanding view of the road yet still allows easy entry and exit, for both me (6 ft 2 in) and my wife (5 ft. 3 in.). I absolutely love the in-bed trunk. The infotainment system is generally easy to use, though I wish it would honor the play status of the music app when connected to the phone (sadly, a complaint I have with EVERY car that connects to my phone). Fit and finish are first rate, though some interior material choices could have been better. In typical Honda fashion, most everything just works as it should and without constant intervention. That is until one gets to the 'Honda-sensing' safety systems. Running down the list of the safety systems, let's start with the road departure mitigation. Not only is it intrusive, it's too sensitive and when it activates aggressively slows down the vehicle (much to my consternation). Overriding it requires far too much effort. Next up is forward collision warning. Another system that is too sensitive for real-world driving; in any high traffic situation it constantly flashes and/or screams at the driver; it's quite annoying. Then we come to adaptive cruise control. It is easily confused in traffic (where its use is particularly desirable), especially along a curved road. When it is trailing a vehicle, there is too little distance hysteresis, which results in an irritating bucking condition; both braking and acceleration are far too aggressive. Lane keeping assist, oddly, has the opposite problem. Its centering algorithm has too much hysteresis and it also is easily confused in turns. That, combined with insufficient steering authority results in the truck constantly wandering in the lane. Finally, we come to auto high-beams. How this function made it into production escapes me. Another easily confused system, it constantly flashes oncoming vehicles and randomly turns on and off (even on completely unlit rural roads). Unlike the other systems though, it is nigh impossible to disable. No doubt there is a way, but I have tried every suggested instruction I can find to turn it off, thus far to no avail. In short, these systems are utterly useless, and as implemented on this vehicle actually REDUCE safety because of their horridly poor performance. All have been turned off entirely or disabled where I could. To be fair, I have yet to drive a vehicle with similar systems, from any manufacturer, that actually work properly. Some, such as our XC60 are better than others, but in my experience few are worth the added cost and complexity they bring to the vehicles. If one moves past these 'safety' systems and focuses on the truck itself, though, it's difficult to find fault. It's the ideal combination of truck and car attributes that make it an outstanding daily driver and commuter vehicle. Despite the shortcomings, I've been very happy with it. - 5.0

Bought used with 35000 miles, four years later has 54000 miles. A great pick-up truck! Easy to drive, runs very well. Has great space for hauling everything from dirt to furniture.
