it's funny how a lot of people were calling the ridgeline a fail of a truck when they first came out, now everyone wants them. my brother's is great unless your really needing a truck for everyday life. he manages a small landscaping company with that thing, kid hauler, great all around truck. this. exactly lol. from the few i've driven i really like them, handles great for a larger vehicle (ody platform underneath) and does everything you need it too with half-decent mileage. interior works well for everyday and you have an ok bed with the hidden storage (lockable) underneath. very low warranty from what i've seen over the years too. some issues here and there but pretty solid for the most part. can't wait to see what they bring out for 2017, supposedly pretty bold step. I am sorry to say but the Ridgeline is a total fail for what it is, dollar wise it costs the same to purchase/operate as a F150 but it does everything way worse, towing, off road, you name it. I still respect it because it's a honda and I am a fanboy to this day, Honda fit and finish is better than toyota/ford/whatever turd you want to compare to. But even that wears thin on me, the ridgeline is nothing special, i only like it because it's a honda product. Would I ever buy one? Fuck no, but it's a good compromise for many people who need a van, but don't want to be seen in one and live one lie per day type of life. /real talk
Nah dude, I'd call a mdx a minivan over a ridgeline. You know what Its, it's just a great all around car//truck/tower/family car with the drivability of a suv. It's not the best at everything it does, but It does or can do a bit of everything.
F150? Great truck. But it drives like a truck (and don't quote me but longer than the ridge) and it doesn't have a trunk; not too practical for daily or family use. Zomg someone stole my $1000 stroller out of the back of my truck. Gas mileage is probably the same if not better on the f150 with the v6 echoboost.

lol, not arguing that man you're pretty much right (hence the same undertones of my first post), essentially it's more a simple utility truck than actuall pickup and drives "like a car" so to speak. hence why it's good for poseurs like me who don't need "real pickups"
