If I were to buy a ridgeline, it would be for an advanced AWD system, a super sweet cooler in the back, and to make it look good. Nothing more.

Its seriously just a truck that was meant for truck dutys...

If it was meant for truck dutys why did they make it more like a SUV(Sport utility vehicle) . I think it is more of a SUT(Sport utility truck) just look at the lil bed on it . I wouldn't want to put any thing in there it could f-up the cooler.

i agree... plus if it is supposed to be a truck, i would think it would have a v8 or some kind of diesel or turbo diesel in it.

ps. its 420

True that. They don't even sport a frame like other trucks, just a unibody, it's basically just a car. If I remember correctly, it doesn't even have four wheel low in the 4wd models. It has tiny axles too, take a look under one. They should just sell them with car tires, but then urban yuppie warrior and soccer moms wouldn't want them. Just my opinion. Before I get off the soap box, honda probably wouldn't have gotten into suv's if american's weren't so hyped on them, honda just wanted a piece of the pie (money that comes from them.) Just think if they would've just kept all there focus on making kick-arse type-r cars. Just stating some facts and opinions. Don't crucify me.

Early released models had a Lifetime warranty for the original owner for the transmissions.

Clearly that mad power made them slip.:smile:
