    Unlike most of its rivals, the Honda Ridgeline has represented one of the options in its range that can be considered as different. While the mid-size pickup truck segment has become more familiar with traditional body-on-frame pickups that provide ample towing and capable off-road capabilities, the Ridgeline is there for those who are looking for a more comfortable and fuel efficient option. For years now, we've seen several upgrades made to the Honda Ridgeline that has seen it become more and more of a superstar in its range, with only few trucks being able to come close in comparison. For 2023, there will be no changes from what we got in 2022, as we'll only be getting a rollover with no changes this time around. Whether you decide to buy the 2022 Ridgeline or the one for 2023, the truck is among the best you can have, and to further buttress that, we'll be taking a look at 5 things to know before buying the Honda Ridgeline. Do stay tuned and enjoy.

      Yup same here, my third. 2006, 2010, and now 23. Yes I wish it could tow more BUT we bought a 2016 Nissan Titan XD Cummins and that thing can tow. So the Ridgeline is my daily truck and the Titan my tow truck. The refinement of the Ridgeline is night day over the smaller trucks in the segment.

    I have a 2022 RTL-E. It's the 1% (of sales) truck that meets 99% of most people's needs. Best fuel economy even with full time AWD which is amazing in wet and snow conditions. Don't forget the two way tailgate and the "hidden" massive cooler/storage under the bed.

    You missed or glazed over the features that make the Ridgeline uniquely better than other mid-size trucks. Four wheel independent spring suspension plus unibody construction gives you a quiet, car-like ride. The tail gate swings open like a fridge door or flips up and down; that's incredibly helpful on grocery day. It has an actual trunk that can double as a big ice chest for tailgating socials (and includes a drain plug). The spare is on a slider tray in the trunk; no more climbing under your truck in the mud and snow to retrieve your spare tire. Apple Car play is included and combined with your smart phone provides the best GPS you ever saw. That 285 HP Honda V6 is amazingly fast; put the pedal to the metal and hold on mama.

    The towing capacity argument is largely a red herring. Honda claims that studies show that 5000 pounds is more than 90% of truck owners will ever tow in their lives. If you need to tow more, buy a body-on-frame truck. If not, it is meaningless.

    I’ve been looking at Mid-size trucks off/on for decades, although the cramped cabs, lack of cargo space and rough ride kept me in the full size segment, the Ridgeline really doesn’t have any competition in my opinion for what you get, it’s the only mid-size truck that has good ratings from Consumer Reports, I have purchased a 23 RTL-E and it’s very comfortable, smooth and powerful, plenty of cargo space, I always felt my full size trucks were too large and cumbersome around town parking etc and wouldn’t fit in the garage which is not the case with the Ridgeline

    I have a 21 HPD, Ave 18 mpg around town, used 1 quart oil between change, thats the light oil used in these engines, not a mechanical fault, handiest little pickup I have ever owned and I have had them all over the years, it’s a runabout that will function in all weather conditions, solid build, off road capable if you want to jump a curb and tear up your mom’s flower bed, add a easy on your knees bed rug, Agrifab aluminum low profile tri fold tonneau for lock secure bed and your good to go.

    I seen the RTL-E in Videos and when I went to Honda to look they didn't have any Ridgeline at the time. Everything that I seen at the time showed the Back Look and thought the RTL-E had it, (It don't) then in this video I see the Black Edition does? Does it? Is it something that could be easy to add in? It was a feature I really wanted. Oh well, A few days ago I took possession of my NEW 2023 RTL-E and other then the Smell of Fiberglass Resin in the Bed Trunk I love the truck. Only offer was the RTL or RTL-E and elected for the E.. I really want the LOOK feature though

    I have the RTL model and there are 2 things I hate about it. One, if my key fob is in my pocket with other things, it sometimes rolls down all the windows and opens the sunroof. Two, the collision avoidance warning is annoying and useless! It activates for every bush and sign close to the edge of the road. I always turn it off, but I have to do it every time I start it.

I am going to keep my 2006 until Honda replaces the engine without vcm or offers a hybrid or full electrical mode.

    Sport is the way to go. The RTL and up adds a moon roof - THAT LEAKS. It also takes away head room. Leather - who wants it? It's a truck. Leather is sticky in the summer. It is also a very light color that is easily soiled and looks like a cheap car interior. The cloth in the Sport is very durable and comfortable. The basic Sport is the way to go, if you want a truck.
