Still on the fence. - 2006 Honda Ridgeline
By Steve Thompson - July 14 - 11:20 amThis is a well thought and engineered out product although pricey. Plenty of interior room, great styling and economy. It is so solid however the front seats are a bit too hard and uncomfortable. Even with full power adjustments Im ready to get out of it after 50 miles or so. The locking and waterproof below bed trunk is great idea. The truck does seems a little top heavy in turns. Maybe Honda could offer a Sport Package w/6-Speed and 50 series tires and wheels. The power is marginal for the engine size and torque as compared to other trucks in this class. The add-on parts for this truck are ridiculously high, such as $600 for a hitch, and $500 for running boards!! I mean come on!!

The Perfect Compromise - 2006 Honda Ridgeline
By Big Dave - July 8 - 1:46 pmAfter trying different trucks, this was the one that suited my needs the best. It has the right size (not too big), comfort (leather!) and utility (a bed AND a trunk!) for my familys needs. We can tow, take it off road, haul the groceries as well as the Home Depot run and it does all that in comfort and style. Its safe, reliable and well thought out. The best thing is that it does not bounce you around like other kidney-buster 4X4s. 90% of truck owners use them to commute. The Ridgeline will get you back & forth without beating you black & blue. A success for Honda.

An objective owners viewpoint... - 2006 Honda Ridgeline
By pbear - July 1 - 5:00 amFrom the buying experience to ownership, I have had nothing but a great experience with my Ridgeline. No trouble, no drama, except for the folks out there that are all "experts" on this truck (talk about subjective), its been a great ride. And thanks to the Ridgeline Owners Club. You folks are terrific, just like my truck!

Best of both for me - 2006 Honda Ridgeline
By Terri - June 27 - 9:33 pmThis truck is GREAT, not a HEAVY duty truck, but very comfortable for everyday and for trips too, with the cabability to run to Home depot or Lowes, take the grandkids camping / fishing and seats 5 adults very comfy, I love the height of the seats so you are not climbing in and out of the truck you just swing your legs around and you are standing. the bed trunk is GREAT for storage and is large. Nav works very well along with the sound system, rides smooth and pretty quite, the adjustable console is really nice esp in town driving. I am very pleased with my purchase

Best truck ever - 2006 Honda Ridgeline
By tj - May 9 - 8:03 pmHonda got it right with the Ridgeline. For 95% of Americans, a truck is something handy to have - not something necessary - and the focus should be on comfort rather than rugged off-roading ability. Honda knew this already and designed the Ridgeline around the driver and passengers rather than the load. For me, and most people who drive trucks, the bed is there to help me haul relatively big items, but not chunks of steel, engines, bricks, etc. The Ridgeline is the most comfortable, thoughtfully-created truck youll ever drive in. So why many truck die-hards may balk at its lack of body-on-frame construction and solid rear axle, Im enjoying a the quietest, smoothest riding truck ever.

nothing not to like - 2006 Honda Ridgeline
By j.mayerhauser - May 7 - 9:36 amThe perfect vehicle when you dont need another sedan. It travels comfortably and nothing is handier than using the open bed to haul "stuff". The lockable, weather proof trunk in the bed is ingenious.

Best Truck on the Market! - 2006 Honda Ridgeline
By Fredrick Barber - May 5 - 11:50 pmI can only say that I am a 33 year old man that swore that he would not buy a non-american truck. Honda changed that after I personally drove every truck on the market I could except the Ridgeline. I have been stationed in Iraq so I never knew that Honda started building trucks. I had my mind made up to purchase a BMW X5 until my brother told me about the Ridgeline. I could not believe how much "truck", "SUV" and "High" end car Honda stuffed into one vehicle. It takes ten minutes to name all of the features. It is clearly the best truck on the market for the money...even if it cost more.

Woeful gas mileage, fun to drive - 2006 Honda Ridgeline
By albert - May 5 - 2:46 pmBought a Ridgeline RT June06 and very satisfied with the features and driving experience. But the gas mileage is awful. Drove to vegas back and forth for 300 miles and got just over 18 miles/gal. In our area where there are lots of driving up and down the hills - 12 miles/gal. I may have to install a bed cover, hopefully it can minimize drag and saves fuel.

Ridgleline has Some Neat Surprises - 2006 Honda Ridgeline
By galvang - April 30 - 1:36 pmJust bought the RL with Navi and XM sat. radio. The build quality has been excellent honda style. Pretty smooth riding vehicle up to about 80MPH beyond that it gets a little less smooth. The Navi system is incredible with the touchscreen and voice activation for all of the major cabin controll systems. The XM sat. radio is also excellent especially traveling in the rural areas. Overall comfort is quite good with supportive leather seating. Overall, Im pretty impressed with the vehicle so far.
