The Honda Ridgeline is the Right Truck

The first version of the Honda Ridgeline was polarizing, but Honda learned from that and now offers us this truck in a more conservative form for the drive you want. Step inside the cabin and you’ll see an interior that looks and feels a lot like the Honda Pilot SUV with the design elements you love from the brutish vehicle. The infotainment system, climate control features, and gauges are easy to use and the seats are extremely comfortable to make this a pickup truck you can drive for hours on end when you need to.

From the outside, you’ll see a truck that looks like a truck with a conservative appearance that you can enjoy. Notice the bed and body are part of the same construction, which is called a unibody build to give you a truck that drives more like an SUV. Take a look at the bed and tailgate and notice the gate swings two ways and there is a storage bin under the bed floor to give you extra storage where you need it. These items make the Ridgeline attractive and much more useful than some other trucks on the market today.

Check Out the Features and the Power

If you’re looking for a midsize truck to be your comfortable daily driver, the Ridgeline can be right for the ride. Every model except the base RT can be ordered with AWD to add more control for your drive. You’ll love the addition of leather upholstery, an acoustic windshield, a 400-watt bed outlet, a navigation system, and a suite of active safety features that can be enjoyed at higher trim levels of the Ridgeline. This is an impressive truck that shows up with more of what you want including connectivity items such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the ability to be the truck that’s the life of your party.

You’ll only have one powertrain for the drive you want to make with the Honda Ridgeline. This system starts with the 3.5-liter V6 engine that gives you 280 horsepower and 262 lb.-ft. of torque. This engine is attached to a six-speed automatic transmission and the base models are set up in FWD to make this the only truck on the market with this layout. You’ll want to choose AWD for those times you run into foul weather or want to head out on the areas that aren’t part of the paved road.
