CORRECTION: in this episode we misspoke 2 things, 1 - this color is not specific to the Trailsport. 2 - the excellent iVTM4 awd system is standard on all Ridgeline trims. Sorry for that and thanks for watching!

[@IamGroot786]

Exactly. iVTM-4 and torque vectoring are standard and believe me, they turn this thing into a snow beast!

[@chrisb9478]

I’ll never understand why Honda did not slightly lift their Trailsport models like the Subaru Wilderness models! 😑 It has a good Awd system, just so dang low.

[@DavefromCA2023]

You beat me to it, $45000 and they could put a 1.5” lift and maybe modify the bumpers for better angles

[@matthewrideout2677]

they are really easy to lift though.

[@chrisb9478]

@@matthewrideout2677 Yes, but the Trailsport should come that way, imo 😁

[@DavefromCA2023]

Sure, but why would you when for less money you can get a Ranger FX4 for $42000?

[@milfordcivic6755]

​@@DavefromCA2023Ranger doesn't have a NA V6. They can keep their troublesome ecojunk turbos.

[@DavefromCA2023]

I love the Ridgeline but I would not spend $45000 on it if I had an inclination to go off-road

[@mike06krista07]

I have the 2024 ridgeline trailsport. Best vehicle for most people.

[@philippelarocque4207]

Honda has an amazing AWD system!

[@lourdesraupe3824]

Really like the color of this truck!

[@premiercconstruction]

Great vehicle

[@milfordcivic6755]

HPD = High Priced Decals

[@TRXDetail]

I did a 1.5 Level kit on my trailsport for a 9.1 lift at the front worth it

[@knightup6420]

I did that to mine as well. With more aggressive tires. looks great.

[@thegolfbeast4990]

Did you do it yourself or did you take it to a shop? How much did it cost? Thanks.

[@stw2186]

Do you only need to do a leveling kit to the front of the truck or do you need to do the back as well?

[@EB7144-gt9ms]

The Sonic Gray Pearl is available in all Ridgeline trims for an additional $455. If you are going to do a review get your facts together. Didn’t watch the rest of the video because if you make an incorrect claim in the beginning then no need to watch the rest.

[@TexasTruckChannel]

You are correct, we had that mixed up with another vehicle. We are sorry this threw you off, you missed the best part of this video. Thanks for watching.

[@Prague1810]

@@TexasTruckChannelYou made the princess mad. 😅

[@g33s0n6656]

Are they saying that something like the black edition or the sport do not have the same Ivtm-4 as the trailsport?

[@brickfollett]

Ivtm4 is standard in all ridgelines, it's not specific to the trails port model. I don't believe the trails port has any additional modes that the other trims have (normal, mud, sand, snow). The trailsport largely just has different tuned suspension, better tires and the small skid plate, other than that the other trims are equally capable. Also note that for 2024, honda eliminated the "in bed audio" feature on all trims. I think the trailsport was a bit of a miss for the Ridgeline, they could have done much more. I'm in the process of ordering a full set of skid plates for my 2023 RTL-E and lifting it 1.5" front and rear. Once my tires wear out I'll be going with a slightly larger tire (265 is the largest you can go no matter how much it's lifted). Stock size is 245

[@michaelbury1941]

They just need to control the price

[@coldman340]

Good

[@juanporter4137]

Please test the new chevy traverse z71.....pleeeaaas

[@TexasTruckChannel]

As soon as we get hands on it we will!

[@juanporter4137]

👍🏾

[@JRs-guitars]

Does this not have an offroad mode? Also...I've been told that it doesn't have the same advanced AWD as the Pilot, thoughts on that?

[@wb5jysman]

From what I've read, it doesn't have it. Plus, that color is on other trims.

[@Marbind]

Still uses the same iVTM4 AWD since 2017

[@JRs-guitars]

@Marbind I just looked it up. I guess the pilot has the "trail torque logic" which is more advanced software than the passport and the ridgeline (trail sport trims). But yes..same hardware.

[@tpuuup]

Nice car!

[@pingpongballz5998]

Fine truck, but I ain't spending 45k on that!

[@markmaher2827]

I like you videos but... everytime you get momentum to top the obstacle you applied brakes and stopped the ridgeline from completing its task. leveling kit and this truck is perfect for 90% of "truck" drivers.

[@adrianw3985]

I like hondas cars, but for off-roading, I'll bring my real 4x4.

[@WorkerofJesus777]

JESUS ​​LOVES YOU! JESUS ​​DIED TO SAVE YOU! JESUS ​​SAVES, HEALS AND FREES! JESUS ​​IS COMING BACK! The hour is come, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe the gospel. Pursue peace with all, and sanctification, without which no one will see the Lord. Accept Jesus, obey the bible and be baptized by immersion in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit in a river of running waters and you will be saved.

[@ScoobyFermentation]

Jesus Christ shut up already

[@milfordcivic6755]

Go beat your bible somewhere else

[@richardhouvener6423]

When? People have been saying this for a VERY long time.

[@smittysmitty481]

This SUV with a bed is not good OffRoad

[@trl1980]

Exactly why I bought one. I know you're trying to insult it, but you're actually complimenting it.

[@milfordcivic6755]

​@@trl1980same here. I got the TS in Diffused Sky Pearl, a color that is 1st year, exclusive to the TS package.

[@RedmanLS3]

Dudes who have insecurities in man card will hate this truck but 90% of them who own those big pos truck dont even tow or go off road willing to pay $80 for gas just to drive around town 😂

[@smittysmitty481]

@@RedmanLS3 my confidence is solid. It’s not a real truck because it’s not a body on frame build, it does not offer 4x4, no rear lockers, no solid rear axel, & no skid plate protection. Real world people shop this vehical against the Maverick & Santa Cruz, & not against real trucks like the Colorado, Ranger, & Tacoma

[@RedmanLS3]

@smittysmitty481 dude we all know that. It's a small truck and was never design to complete with big trucks. It still a truck. people talk shit about it because it's a honda but not the ugly ford merrick because it's a ford. I'll pick the ridgeline over any pos small ford truck all day. At the end I will have better reliability and value while the ford are garbage. This Coming from a gm guy
