Unhappy Ridgeline

I just saw my first Honda Ridgeline up close today. Do you folks realize just how hard it is to scrape dried puke off of a windshield?

I just don't get the trunk! If you use the trunk, you can't use the bed or the trunk is blocked.... Just get a cover (or a regular SUV) if you need protected storage that badly. The trunk is a nice place for the "donut" spare though...

Well I think its a good idea. Say if your going to the park with the family, bring you cooler and junk in the trunk and put some bicycles in the bed or other stuff. Like that comercial.

I thought these things looked like little Chevy Avalanches. I've only seen one around here in my area lately.

Yeah, and don't try to get anything out of that trunk until you stop and unload the bed, then reload it, to continue your trip.

Picture it.........30 minutes work in the hot sun, just to get a cold drink from the trunk.

That trunk is a brilliant idea........

...

Its a honda so car and driver will rate it truck of the year...same thing with toyotas...most people say they had no problems with thier jap car because they dont want to ruin their reputation...the honda truck is not a truck at all...it is basically a pilot with a box on the back....has a transversal mounted engine so im assuming its 60% fwd....yes its very ulgy we all know that...but for the avg joe shmoe who goes to home depot and uses it once a month as a pickup this is the truck for them... This truck was designed for everyday drivers who want a truck(car that looks like a truck)

When you're a baby you get weined off the bottle to a sippy cup, then a real cup.

For the car guy, the ridgeline is the inbetween, then they can step up to the real truck.

Those honda guys are geniuses, or dumbasses.

why?
so when you have a load of drywall and then get a flat, you'll have to unload it to change the tire.

Yeah -- to heck with that trunk in the Ridgeline!

I'd rather have a "factory option" rocker panel storage unit like Ford used to make available back in the 60's....
