I have a 2017 Sport edition Ridgeline. I love it! I always keep my vehicles for 5 years and then trade out so next year I'll be trading for a 2021 or 2022 Ridgeline. It is such a comfortable riding vehicle. The cloth on the seats is not the sturdiest but I hear they have made improvements. I live in Montana and it has been good for winter driving.

Ditto in Hawaii. Only Hyundai/Kia seem to offer ventilated seats without wanting top option $10K more. If their soon to release truck is competitive with Ridgeline and oh yes they have some knobs and buttons instead of 100% touch screen it could be my deal breaker. Honda has some innovations like the tailgate but they took 4 years to change the grille? Seems they are tone deaf to what their target market wants.

Good for you for dumping it early on. My 2018 Honda Ridgeline had 5 safety recalls, made noises and was in the shop for 10 days and honda couldn't find the source and said just keep driving it it may wear down (which 5,000 miles it did) - also, the 2017-2019 ridgelines have a defect with the engines where fuel injectors are pushed in to far and clog up. Many blogs talk about this and around 50k miles i had to get mine fully replaced because check-engine emission light came on. Lots of folks have this issue. Also the 2017-2019 power train (transmission) is used on the ridgleine/odessy and pilot all have many issues with failing between 50k-70k and it costs about 5k repair. I got rid of my 2018 honda ridgeline this January of 2023 and traded it in for a Mazda. I don't miss it at all, A few weeks after dumping it i got an email of yet another recall regarding tailgate camera. So happy don't have to bring that dang thing back into the shop to waste hours for another warrenty repair. Anyway, Honda Civics and the Honda CRV have different teams and they are reliable, for me the Honda Ridgeline had the most recalls then any vehicle i ever owned and I had zero confidence it was going to last. When I drove it all i kept thing was "what's the next thing to go wrong". I am so happy i got rid of it, and not ever buying another Honda again, it was a painful experience.

I have the 2020 sport the trunk and the back seats folding up were part of the reason I bought it. Nice ride got a rack to carry my canoe and it pulls my pop up camper no problem. I kept my 99 B3000 for 20 years do miss the clearance it had but it was 2 wheel drive and got me where I needed to go but I just feel more comfortable having the all wheel drive. I’ve taken it the same place’s as the old truck and have had no problems. Plan on keeping this one for 20 years if I make it that long. Thanks for the video’s.

Honda did a great job with the Ridgeline exterior.. It looks great.. Love the tall more upright stance, which results in better visibility, more room (and more headroom), and is more comfortable. I like this version with the traditional shifter (don't like the rotary knob or push button shifter). But not sure what Honda was thinking with bad and unattractive dashboard layout. If they just would have made it with a more traditional dashboard layout - get rid of the digital speedo and add a traditional needle speedo .. and add lots of large knobs and traditional controls - this would be an even more fantastic truck.

With my 2018 2.7 I'm getting right about what others on Fuelly are getting with theirs, which is similar to what the Ram 3.6 and GM 2.7 get as well. Need to keep it under 60 to get the EPA highway mileage, which is about never for me, but city has been better than I expected. 19-20 city is typical in the summer, winter drops 2-3 MPG. Of course when you get the turbos spooled up mileage goes to hell, lol, but it is sure fun.

Also a hitch mount step for easy in and out of the bed. 13 years and no major problems. Used it hard many times, 16’ deck materials, definitely over loaded and hiway driven with large rocks for landscaping, you name it. Traded in just over a month ago for a 3 row Subaru Ascent as it suits our current needs better but still love the Ridgeline.

Really have no idea why Honda only has the sliding rear window on the upper trim levels on the gen 2. It was standard on all trim levels on the gen 1 and IMO in a midsize truck and there small beds you really need it for those occasional long items.

I just picked up a 1-owner 2019 Honda Ridgeline Black Edition with 11,500 miles. It had the floor liners, roll-n-lock bed top, Michelin LTX M/S tires with black Voxx wheels that had only 7,500 miles. I'm decking it out with accessories. One question how did you black out the chrome? I purchased Honda window vent visors came chrome ...went to Honda dealer stated they dont make black chrome for Black Edition WTF? I looked at using Vinyl tape but that only lasts 5-7 years (Sun/Heat) so I ordered I think its SEM high gloss black paint for chrome. So I gotta tape them up before spraying vent visor chrome....thank you for the rear door hacker trick...what level kit did you use? I also went for a 2017-19 for the purpose of the 6 speed...too many issues with push button like people driving on freeway then shifted to park 😲 Thx again 4 your vids

Hello, you mentioned installed all terrain tires in your Ridgeline 2018, could you tell us size of them?, you kept original 245/60/R18? I want to install BFGoodrich K02 265/60/R18 in my 2021 RTL, what do you think?

I think the Ridgeline G2 had the deepest in-class bed around 5’4” at the time it was released, so long as it’s compared within the short-box. I don’t think any other competitors offer a larger bed without paying for the long-box upgrade to 6’.

Most full size trucks with a full cab has a 5.5" bed. So the ridgeline bed isn't far off.
