Damn it rides nice!

 

The front end sucks!

WAAAAAAAAY overpriced.

 

That would be a BIG 10-4 !

Some dealers adding on up to 5K on the MSRP. This didn't happen to him
anyway.

I don't see how this thing is going to sell considering how much competition
there is in that segment. Hell, you can buy a real truck for less $ than
that.

 

If you build it...they will come.

It's for people who "Want One" not "Need One"

Same price I paid for my Pilot. If I had the money, I'd get one...but with
two kids in college, I don't

Personally I feel it should be priced with the Toyota Tacoma.

The forntend of that ridge line is just plan ugly. The grill looks terrible.

 

I think it looks great!

I feel the same way about your wife

I'm Kidding!!!! Really!

Sorry, couldn't resist. The same reason I spent many hours in the
principals office in High School.

Beauty is in the eye...

How much time do people spend looking at the front end of their vehicles?

Only part I really care about the looks of is the dash. How the front end
looks is the problem of the person I am following. How the rear-end looks
is the problem of the car behind me.

 

Not too bad looking, but I would be hard pressed to trade in my 05 Duramax
for a V6 truck.

Maybe if my wife wanted a truck instead of her Accord

There's a choice of a different grille as an accessory.

 

I'de buy a 05 Tacoma at least there is a receiver hitch option, instead of
an after market.If I remember the in town mpg figures for the Taco are
better than the Ridgeline.

Tom

 

You can get an extended cab 4X4 Duramax or any of the other diesils from the
big 3 for the price of a loaded Ridgeline if you watch your options. My
buddy's 4X4 Duramax gets 18mpg in the city.

 

This is very true, when I priced out a Ridgeline it was close to the same
price as my fully loaded GMC Duramax.

One would have to be a complete moron to buy one of these "trucks" for
28-35K. Don't get me wrong I love Honda autos, but when it comes to these
things, they really F-ed up.

 

Or, see things differently than you.

Without any specifics. Genius.

 

that's a wicked evil look! sweet.

 

Quick sucking Honda ass, the thing is a disaster. Would you be dumb enough
to buy one just because it has an H on the grill?

Let's see assvacuum, it's overpriced, underpowered, undersized, ugly as an
Avalance with less functionality and did I mention it was overpriced?
