Nah, if I was in the market for a mid-sized truck, I would get a Canyon or a Tacoma.

Can it carry a 1/2 ton of Old Milwaukee Light? It might be useful.

I drive a 2002 Tundra with 200,000+ miles that my wife refuses to ride in, unless I put in fresh ant baits. Leather seats are gone and there is a small bit of rust in the bed where I threw 50# logs from the top of my roof after a tornado.

Yep. I need a 3/4 ton but I would love to have a Ridgeline. After the current truck is paid off I'll probably get one.

I know a diesel mechanic who had one and absolutely loved it. I think he got 400k reliable miles from it before he sold it just because he had gotten a company truck

The tailgate and trunk are both genius. I wonder what kind of patent Honda has on those because there is no reason they shouldn’t both be being duplicated on all trucks.

I would consider one but then, I could not care any less about what other people think about my vehicle.

I had a 2006 one up until last year. Had 330k miles on it.

Had mostly done routine oil changes, brakes, etc. The radiator broke and I had to replace it at 320k. After that I just decided I would upgrade. give it back to my parents who then sold it. Last I heard it still driving around the wonderful town of Bastrop LA.

ETA:
And fwiw,.yeah it may be unibody and not a "truck". But as previously mentioned for what 90+% of what people use their trucks for it does the job. Hauling etc. My dad hauled a camper across country with it with no issues. He did eventually upgrade to a bigger truck for power. With that said it's unibody means the ride is also fairl smooth compared to most trucks.

Styling wise...step in right direction. Differentiates itself from mommy mobile Pilot.
I prefer Toyota’s but this is a truck that fits most people’s needs.
