I sold my 202o F250 Platinum Diesel and had ordered a 2022 Ford F150 Powerboost. While I was waiting I took a look at the 2022 Ridgeline and bought a black edition. Let me say that Ford upper trim lines interior seats are the best so I was expecting that I would be giving up comfort going with the RL especially since it cost over $35K less. But honestly this truck impresses me more each day. It does what it is designed to do and it does it well. Great handling smooth ride and averaging around 26MPG bumping around. It would be unfair to compare it to the SuperDuty but unless you need the absurd capabilities of a Diesel Super Duty this truck can do the same thing. Very satisfied.

Bought the 2022 Sonic Grey Black Edition a month ago. My first truck and I love it. Played Cornhole at the park with some friends and used the truck bed audio feature and it was impressively handy. My fiance loves it too, so much that she probably drives it as much as I do

Any issues with it so far? I hear some folks have issue with the electronics. How is the gauge cluster? It looks very dated. I don’t think I could get past the push button shifter…

I got my 2022 Sonic Grey Pearl RTL back in March. The truck just keeps getting better and better. I've already taken on several road trips. It's a dream on long all-day freeway jaunts. It's great around town too. The storage is just fanstastic. From the in-bed trunk, to the completely flat bed, to the massive space in the back (with the seats folded up). It's just such a great combination of a great ride and super useful vehicle....

Just bought a blue 23 RTL and love it so far. I haven't driven a v6 in a few years so trying to get used to the higher cost of gas, but hope the utility of the truck will more than make up for it. Love the ride feel and amenities. About the only feature of the RTL-E I will really miss is the heated steering wheel, and maybe the high wattage stereo, but the RTL stereo is just fine so far.

Traded in my Tacoma for a Ridgeline. Wow!! The Ridgeline's ride is better quality by far! If you're team Tacoma, you're in denial, or you just don't know better. Tacoma sells bcuz it's popular for first-time truck owners.

Fun fact, you can option a heated steering wheel, and wireless phone charger on any trim if you custom build one online. Ive heard other reviews say that base stereo on the Sport and RTL is horrible. I'd get a Sport, but I really have gotten used to heated seats, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, and a fantastic sound system in my current vehicle, so I'd probably upgrade to the RTL-E or Black Edition to retain all of those features. $45k still seems like a decent deal for what you get.

Just got a 23 RTL, sound system sounds pretty damn good. If you want to rattle the windows in the car next to you, this isn't your sound system, but if you like clean, powerful sound with good bass from the sun that's included, it's not bad at all. I was debating between the RTL AND RTL-E for the Soundsystem alone, and it's the first thing I checked on the test drive. IMHO, the RTL system is good enough that there would be no need to upgrade. You do get the in bed speakers, AC plug in and a few other goodies in the RTL-E, but it wasn't worth the bump in price to me. To each their own 😀

I have a 2010 Ridgeline,i really like the redesigned looks of the current model.That being said i think they are overpriced,here in Canada they retail for about 55thousand.I think i might buy a Maverick or Santa Cruz once my Ridgeline dies,as they are significntly cheaper.
@ciello___83072 жыл бұрын
just keep in mind the maverick and santa cruz are smaller and the maverick's is definitely not as nice inside
@chriscalabro2 жыл бұрын
There is a reason they are cheaper. If your willing to concede that neither brings the same qualities to the table the RL does then going to Santa Cruz or Ranger will work.
