  • Owned for over one year - 2006 Honda Ridgeline
    By -

    Most reviews are written by new owners. Have had it for one year, longest trip 2000 miles. Very comfortable. Love the truck. Best recommendation I can give is "I would buy another". Gas mileage as expected. Ride excellent. Presently have in excess of 20000 miles. Lots of storage space. Meets my every expectation.

    I also looked at the Toyota Tundra/Tacoma but of course found the Honda a better bargain. The Ridgeline fit all my needs plus its not too big so the wife uses it to :( I have seen a lot of complaints about the door locks... READ THE MANUAL! It can be changed. The fit and finish is typical Honda. It rides better than the Accord we own. Its a truck, expect low MPG.

    With 22,000 miles behind us, Im still quite pleased with my Ridgeline. Something I had not appreciated much as a feature when I purchased my Ridgeline was the swing out tailgate. On several occasions, it has made loading bags of stone, concrete and other landscaping materials so much easier and another is of course the locking in-bed trunk.

    I just bought the ridgeline RTL with Moonroof. First Impression, impressed. To me it is the best blend of sedan, suv and truck. I submit that if you have to buy only one vehicle for all applications, this would be the one.You can take this one vacation, tow a 5000 load, go skiing, go pick up the 4x8 at home depot . The only limitation is carry more than 5 people.

  • Great truck, ready to go out of the box - 2006 Honda Ridgeline
    By -

    I love all the fun things with this truck, but there are some down sides. Turning radius is not good. Headlight switch gets turned on when getting out at times (at your left knee). No bluetooth with nav. Some good things are I pull my ski boat (3000 lb) with no problems. In fact the truck handles great with a trailer behind it. The ride is very good. Stock sound system is good. Dash has a great looking display. Back seats fold up to make lots of room in the back.

  • Nothing is perfect, but Honda is close. - 2006 Honda Ridgeline

    Owned this vehicle for a year, use it for work pulling a trailer. Fantastic. I think the mileage is reasonable for an AWD truck. I average 16 city/20-21 hwy and about 14-15 when pulling a trailer, and it pulls a trailer sweet. Thanks Honda.

  • Best truck ever. - 2006 Honda Ridgeline
    By -

    Traded in the Tacoma and I couldnt be happier. The Ridgeline is better in every way. More interior room, wider bed, more power-better for towing, less interior noise and the ride is soooo much smoother...oh yeah, theres a trunk! I tend to get a new vehicle every other year and this is by far my favorite of any car or truck I have ever owned.

  • Better than hoped for. - 2006 Honda Ridgeline

    We take two fishing trips to Canada each summer.18 foot boat loaded with gear.Back seat full, bed full including 4cu ft freezer. Drives great, only notice load braking and uphill.

  • Drives Like A Car Works Like a Truck - 2006 Honda Ridgeline
    By -

    Ive had my Ridgeline for almost a year and it has been my favorite vehicle so far. It is fun to drive and handles more like a car. It has been very steady on snow and ice. When driving across country, I felt relaxed and comfortable all day long. I wish the gas mileage was better for this V6, yet overall I am very satisfied.

  • Just OK - 2006 Honda Ridgeline
    By -

    A good truck to drive. Plenty of power when not pulling a load or loaded down. Mileage less than advertised. When pulling a lite trailer mileage at 65 mph dropped to 9 miles per gallon on a level road. Terrible wind noise. Has Honda heard of a wind tunnel? Temperature control/air flow instrument is ridiculous. forget trying to read it if you are farsighted. They are all clustered in a small poorly backlit gauge. Need reading glasses to see tiny icons. Same goes for for small compass in mirror. Need glasses to see direction.Lots of storage but layout is poor. Better if it had a single fold-down console. Thinking of trading it in for a Frontier.
