I've owned Toyota trucks since 1982, and when I sold my 2000 Tundra last year (which never gave me any problems), I had my heart set on purchasing a smaller Tacoma TRD Off Road 4x4 Long Bed. After test driving it, and a 2018 Ridgeline, it was a no brainier to purchase the Ridgeline. The price was about the same for an RTL-E out the door. More comfortable seating. More safety features (the only 5 star NHTSB truck to receive that high a rating). Better handling (it's a Honda!). Better acceleration with V-Tech (Tacoma felt like I had the parking brake on). Better braking (4 disc). Better storage. Better ride (4 wheel independent suspension). Significantly quieter in the cab. The only thing that the Tacoma was better at was the ground clearance, huge library of aftermarket parts and crawl assist for the female drivers.

I will be scaling back from my full size truck in another 18 to 24 months and I know it's early but I'm window shopping now. I don't offroad and I only occasionally pull an atv trailer with 2 atvs or just take the one in the truck bed. I really like to look and thought of owning a Tacoma double cab 4x4 but it's just plain weird to sit in. The Ridgeline is enough truck for my current needs, it has a way better interior, more features and it's easier on fuel. I know the Ridgeline doesn't have a chassis but the only reason for a chassis is for towing capacity and offroad capability. A JD Power article indicates the current model Tacoma is less reliable than even the GM twins which is unsettling. It's good to know that a Toyota guy like yourself has high praise for the Ridgeline.

I did same thing, traded in 2014 Tacoma and 2015 4Runner for 2 Ridgeline's (2017 RTL-E first and then 2019 RTL - T). Didn't buy Ridgeline years ago because I just didn't like the wing style sides. Still Have a 1995 Civic EX. Love Them All (:

I just test drove a Ridgeline with my wife. It rode smoother and quieter than her new Cadillac SUV. Also more comfortable seating! She was not amused that she says she just bought the wrong vehicle! I don’t need off road capabilities like low range etcetera as I seldom use it on my Ford so this is the truck for me. AWD, unibody and 4 wheel independent suspension all add up to smooth, quiet and safe. Plus the innovative truck bed and back seat storage coupled with a huge compartment between the front seats add up to a real winner. Saving my pennies 😎😎

Never thought I'd be interested in a Japanese pickup. There are always going to be gimmicky features that come and go for trucks, but you can't fake build quality. Thats something I really like in these new trucks.

What I love about this truck from a utilitarian standpoint is the fact of how low the bed actually is which makes it real easy to load and unload stuff from the bed of the truck. Especially with the side opening tailgate which every other truck can't do because they're too high for the possibility to even be worth considering. When most people like me don't even need a big huge truck like a 1500 Chevy/Dodge or even the F-150. Dont get me wrong I like em all just this has a more utilitarian standpoint.

I love my 2013 and its honestly the best car I have ever owned in just about every way. The New Ridgeline style is so bland.

The perfect truck for people who don't really need a truck (like me). But Honda needs to up their engineering a little. It could be so much better. Start with having the rear doors open few more degrees. Integrate the latches for the bottom of the rear seats into the floor so it can truly be a flat floor, or design the seats so they don't need to have the folding legs.

Have you opinion, BUT I see and know why you DID NOT MEANTION GAS MILEAGE, because on the old ones, MPG sucks! In 201, I tried out a Ridgeline, drove it to my house and back to dealer....20 miles, according to the mpg meter on the vehicle, it showed about 13 mpg! OUCH! Needless to say, I passed on that one. I have drove more than a few of the new ones, and have got in the mid 20s or better. I also drove many of the old ones doing dealer trades and you were lucky to get 20mpg. Mpg kept me from the old Ridgelines. Actually, I ended up buying a 2014 tacoma, I have averaged around 18mpg on it, with 21 on the road. I am looking to get a new vehicle, and am undecided on a Tacom or Ridgeline. I want the sensing/safety features but no available in anything but a AWD RTL-E or black edition. Tacoma on the other hand, has them on all models! Probably going with a Tacoma as I do not want a awd or four wheel drive as it knocks around 2mpg off your mpg.

I have the 2017 RTL-e model. Love it. Bought the custom front end for it, which looks nicer, IMO. www.flickr.com/photos/psychlist1972/albums/72157672451046593 I like the side-opening tailgate, but I do wish it could be locked open. If you are on anything short of perfectly flat ground, it tends to close on you. The collision warning system is also a bit sensitive, going off on tight corners. The only other place this falls down compared to other new trucks is the infotainment system. I rent a *lot* of vehicles when I travel, and Honda's infotainment system is behind all but the most spartan low-end systems. I've never used the truck bed speaker. The only thing I've had connected to the tow hitch is a support bar for 12' construction lumber. I used to have a Pilot. Like the Pilot, I love that I can park this anywhere, including the lowest level of the airport garage (with very limited clearance height), where this actually spends a fair bit of time. It also fits in the office garages in DC where a full-size truck can't due to either height or the tight turns. Unlike the pilot, I can take this on trips to the dump or to Home Depot without ruining the interior. I do flip the passenger-side rear seat up for interior storage. It's usually up, unless I have the kids in the truck with me. I've also driven it on long-distance trips including New England and Toronto (from the DC area), and numerous trips into DC, to the beach, and more. No problems in the two years I've had it (bought in late 2016), except for crashing the infotainment system hard once due to something strange with Apple CarPlay.

My local honda dealer didnt have the color I wanted. They went out their way to get me one but had to wait for a week. I told the salesman, if he's gonna get me one from other dealerships, he'd better put it on a flatbed cause i dont want any miles driven. Had it new with only 7mi on it.

CERTAINLY NOT THE GAS MILEAGE! Fixed in the new models! I drove a 2wd one on a 115 miles trip and it said it was getting almost 29mpg and another trip in a AWD one 250 miles, showed over 25 miles per gallon. Try that in the old models, wont happen.

Nice, but it's a family grocery getter or a soccer & hockey mom transport not a real work truck. Really tiny truck bed.

Tiny truck bed? Check out a Tacoma. Talk about tiny. It's almost useless. The RL can hold full sheet goods, plus has that trunk.

90% of trucks are driven by people who do NOT use them for work trucks..only to get back and forth to WORK, and as a grocery getter or soccer & hockey mom transport. So, it fits the bill for those who buy them. DUH!

Oh, I forgot to ad...go take a look at aTacoma bed and then a Ridgeline(new model) and you will see that you have to let a sheet of plywood hang half in the truck over the top of closed tailgate, on the Honda, a sheet of plywood can lay flat in the truck with the tailgate down, with room to stack a lot of lumber. i have a 14 Tacoma and know this. i am looking to get a Ridgeline for a better ride, more power and better use of bed when I need it. Both will be my daily driver. Oh did i not mention better mileage.

I drove past a Ridgeline on my 2018 Tacoma test drive and it looked pathetic next to the Toyota Tacoma. Why not make the Ridgeline more truck like than SUV? No wonder why sales for the Ridgeline are rock bottom. Ford will come out with Ranger soon and Honda soon will be forgotten. Honda has a long way to go in this market.

They don't do fleet sales for large companies. They have a target market. These are not service vehicles for the masses. What they do better than the others is their parts content, which is 78.5% made in USA or Canada. Only the Ford F-150 beats it at 85%. Most of the others are in the 50% range.

Did you just completely judge it based on looks it was there something specific you had in mind? There's other videos which go into the differences between the parts shared between the platforms. Quite a large upgrade in the size of suspension components alone.

Common man. Your screename "iron eagle" is from one of the best movies ever made and your dissing the Ridgeline. I recently purchased one, and I think you got to drive one to appreciate it. It is not a traditional truck, but hey, you dont get truck problems either.

ironeagle2526 I feel the exact same way about generation 1. I never even considered a Honda Truck until gen 2 came out. Gen 1 is the ugliest truck on the road, even worse than Avalanche. And when I look at a gen 1 Pilot and a gen 1 Ridgeline they both look the same to me, butt ugly.
