Yet another reason to buy one as well. Supporting our economy!

I love this truck. I am shopping for a used 23-24 under 25 K miles for a great price. These trucks hold their value so much that even the used models are still pricey. Therefore, I may have to bite the bullet and buy a new one to get better financing options. It makes more sense to finance a new (sport base model) for around $40k @ 2.9% ......than a used $36k at 4.9% (used interest rates are always higher)...A lot of folks don't always do that math and they really should.

Just bought a 2021 Ridgeline RTL with 32k miles on it. Just put like 1200 miles on it, only use it for outdoor and still have my other small car for work.

For your windows, I recommend the WeatherTech ones. Yes, they're pricey but much better quality, no glue, and no double sided tape. They fit right into the window channel so they can easily be removed anytime you want. I take mine out in the winter so the snow and ice don't get packed in there. Not sure about your driving style, but I finally got my first brake job on my 2017 after 62K miles.

İ kinda wish that truck was globalized. The Honda lineup in where i live (i live in Turkey btw), is kinda boring. City (Kinda lame car if you ask me) Civic (İt used to be built in Turkey until 2021) Accord (They didn't even get to sell the 2024 model) Jazz (İt used to be Fit until 2020) HR-V (The European HR-V) ZR-V (The American HR-V) CR-V (The biggest SUV that Honda could only sell)

How has your fuel economy been with all the highway driving?

@@AnonymousHippo5 pretty reasonable actually! I average 21-24 mpg on the freeway. If I go 60mph I get more mpg. But often I go 70 mph and up on the interstate. I wanted a comfortable truck to do my long commutes, so this has been great so far!

How is it in the snow?
@DIYBIGMANАй бұрын
It’s been pretty good. It’s solid ultimately depends on the snow tires. I usually run studded tires on the majority of my vehicles.
@jeffreybischoff6772Ай бұрын
@@DIYBIGMAN Thank you. I currently have a 2012 Honda CRV, with AWD. It seems good in the snow; I'm using all-weather (all-seasons, but with the severe snow service, or Alpine symbol, branded similar to winter) tires. I don't tow, I don't off-road, I can't anyway with a CRV. I'm looking to upsize, with more cargo (for my gear, when traveling) room, passenger room, and a V6. For Honda it it's either this Ridgeline, or Passport. From Toyota, either 4runner or Tacoma. I don't need a third row seat (like the Pilot, or Highlander) but I do need either AWD, or 4x4; for inclement weather; since I work maintenance for a hospital, I can't stay home, or work from home. I do like the bed trunk, and rear seats, that lift up, for added cargo space.
@DIYBIGMANАй бұрын
all of them are excellent choices! The upside to the ridgeline is the size and utility and ride quality. Downside is timing belt cost after 100k miles. They’ll all do well in snow. I’m also a big fan of the 4Runner it’s super reliable and easy to work on. I hear the new Tacoma‘s ride better. It all depends on your needs. I use mine as a Freeway commuter plus I love the ability to haul things and wish I had a canopy. Plus, I carry all my tools in the back of the built-in storage which I love. You have all the tough choices lol it’s hard to go wrong with either i lean slightly more towards Toyota. But I do love my Honda Ridgeline for my use. The Tacoma is just a little bit too small for me and you would need some kind of trunk bed storage for tools. I would recommend you test drive each model and make that choice.

If that’s the case why are they not selling. Why buy one when you can’t tow anything or take the family on a trip more than a couple hundred miles away. Any truck guy would never want a ford lightning. I guess it’s good for a city guy who goes to lowes 3 times a year
