    Beautiful truck. I've got a 2010 Ridgeline RTL now and from March 2005-mid 2009 I had a 2006 RTL. I absolutely LOVE the first generation Ridgelines. Always happy to see others enjoying them as well.

    Like your mods, I have a 2008 with 170,000 mi. Bought it new and will never get rid of it. I upgraded headlights to LED's including a strip below headlights in my bumper fake vent. New Upholstered seats with a high quality leather on seats, door rests, headrests and center council. Upgraded stereo to a Panasonic with android auto and apple car play and you can mirror your Google maps to screen.

    I love my 2010. Fits in my garage - KEY POINT for me. I added a few mods - using a door lock actuator, I added a locking tailgate function to the truck (There is a step by step instruction guide on the Ridgeline Owners Forum - The black ridgeline is mine...)so with my backflip and the tailgate locked, cargo is out of sight and somewhat safe. Added a ladder rack specific for gen 1 and that works with the backflip. Made an always hot USB to the front for charging, added after market radio, added subwoofer under driver seat (mfg OEM still present, but disconnected). All speakers replaced. Added sound deadening - helps with the road chatter. Great little truck. If I need a heavy truck, I will use the appropriate truck for the job. For just about everything I do, the RL gen 1 is perfect.
    Oh yeah, added a fumoto oil change valve... So much easier to change oil. I still am too lazy and normally have a friend do it and pay him. It makes it easy for him.

    I have that same exhaust on my 07 Ridgeline. I thought it sounded good but as you mentioned, it did sound loud and droned at 65mph. I had a muffler shop take out the resonator from the magnaflow and install the stock exhaust’s resonator. The exhaust sound was definitely a lot lower but still sounds great and the droning was completely gone. I recommend you go that route if you’re still experiencing the droning. Great mods on your truck and great video!

I only have 122K miles, I love this truck and all of its functionality and storage and yes, the dual purpose tailgate is really one of the coolest features. That, and the trunk always blows people's minds if they aren't familiar with the old school Ridgeline. The newest generation is just too small for my liking and just looks like an Odyssey with the back chopped off. Thanks for the video!

When I put in the new turn signals, will the daylight running lights come on automatically when I start the truck, or is there something else I need to do? Will I need to turn on my lights? I have been thinking about installing daylight running lights and this may be the solution I need.

      I recently purchased a 48" OPT7 bar like the one in the video. I also researched a lot of other DIY install videos on them. The issue I'm having (and would greatly appreciate a response on) is how were you able to connect if from the rear of the trailer lights connecter? I even purchased a separate CURT #56584 adapter so you don't have to hard-wire the reverse cable... The trailer hitch connecter on the Ridgeline (mine is a 2013 RTL) doesn't seem to disconnect from the back (i.e., plug and play). Would greatly appreciate info on how you installed yours!!!

      @m.tedblevins601 2 года назад +1

      @@sofakingtim Thank you for your message. Yes, I did watch the video you included. The issue (known by OPT7) is that the Ridgeline doesn't have a 4-pin connector (as is on the RAM truck in the video) so there is no way to initially "test" the bar. The other issue (known by OPT7), is the Ridgeline's 7-pin connector is a one-piece unit that does not disconnect from the back (as also is different from other truck manufacturer's trucks that I've seen on other YT videos). To do this "plug and play", one has to purchase a separate connector and housing unit from CURT but I also can't seem to get anyone from CURT to confirm the correct replacement part(s).... If you know of another way (without getting into splicing wires), I would appreciate some direction! TY!

      I am at 190k in my 2007. I replaced the plugs at about 80k. Just replaced them again along with the ignition coils. Mine were looking bad when I pulled them. I recently saw a video on bypassing the transmission line going into the radiatior. Basically it takes that line and runs it back into the transmission. The poster said the cooler in front of the radiator is enough to keep the transmission cool. I don't do any regular towing, so I may try that mod. I've replaced my timing belt twice, the last time with the water pump. I have changed the oil between 3-5k miles and do other regular maintenance. I agree, maintenance is a lot cheaper than a car payment. Good luck. I love my Ridgeline.
