2008 Honda Ridgeline RTS Review
ProsEverything that I stated above. Combines comforts of a car, truck, & SUV. ConsUnable to load as much cargo as it's direct competition, and the V6 hardly competes with fuel economy. Honda may as well have a V8 for all the savings this engine provides.

Went From A 2008 To An 2012 — Like the style and utility, had 12,000 miles when I bought it in 09. Headliner came apart, then the rear brakes wore out every 20,000 miles, at 72,000 the motor had BIG Problems....Still got another one:) The 08 was made in Canada, now the are made(100%, motor, tranny,complete) in Alabama !! Hopefully they fixed everything. The 2012 is a Sport model, very sharp w/ 18" wheels and black out treatment inside and out. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

Great Small Truck And Fits The Growing Family — Great small truck that fits my need fit my tall boys in the back and still able to have a truck for work. It also has a 5000lb towing capacity. Lots of cab room for long trips but he gas mileage could be better. I have only gotten about 16mpg average. Primary Use: Utility (towing boats, transporting cargo, etc.) | ||

If You Love Sharing The Outdoors With Family And Friends, This Is Your Truck. — Perfect truck for outdoor activities with family or friends! It is in excellent condition, and I have never had ANY maintenance issues. This all wheel drive truck handles extremely well in the snow and rides very smooth in all conditions. Extremely versatile...can fit 5 people plus all ski/outdoor/camping gear very comfortably. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

Big And Nice To Haul People Or Mulch — In my opinion, I think if the truck was a v8 it would be a much better truck to go off roading in. Easy to drive, not terrible at the gas pump and a def head turner on the streets. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||

Very Nice To Own, Does What It Has To — I love in the in-bed trunk space, very handy to have, either for small things that you don't want to put in the main cabin space, or for keeping stuff out of the weather in the bed area. The fold up rear seat bench, also handy. The dual-action tailgate, what a gem. The convience of being able to open it sideways and not having to lean over the tailgate normally to reach into the trunk/ bed space. I don't know why more auto makers offer something like this some of there current models. | ||

Great Car. — Great build quality. Fit and finish is tops! Performance is as expected-could improve acceleration some. Lots of thoughtful additions in interior. A trunk plenty big for a mouthy teenager to be locked into. Stereo performace is tepid. I plan on buying another. Primary Use: Family transportation | ||

Tough, Comfy Truck — Great utility, handles great for a truck, very very comfy on long drives, reasonably functional off road, very hard on fuel, even when driven gently, has had wind noise issues since day one. It has held up for 80k with virtually no problems, and that includes being stolen and beat on for a month! Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

The Honda Ridgeline: The Greatest All-around Vehicle — It is the ideal vehicle for all around use. Has the modern stylings that appear futuristic. It really stands out in a crowd. It possesses a lot of "umph". It's quick off the line, but maintains a relatively modest fuel consumption rating, because of it's 3.5L V6. It's only a part-time four wheel drive, the computer engages the rear wheels only when it senses slippage. So you save on that gas mileage as well. It's quite spacious inside. I've never personally sat in the rear of the vehicle, but I assume it's spacious. I've never heard any complaints. It's box IS a little on the small side, but large enough to get whatever job done, that you need. Yet small enough that you won't have people hounding you to help them move. Plus, the trunk is to die for. Most people don't even realize that the truck has a trunk in the bed, plus it's lockable so you have that added convenience and security. The Honda Ridgeline is an absolute delight to drive and to own. |
