    10 speed vs 9 equals nothing. New stuff usually breaks. Outward appearance and interior don’t matter much. Needs more ground clearance. More skid plates that are metal, not plastic. Like them but come on Honda.

    People pick on it for not being a real truck. I find it funny, Ram and now Toyota offers the IRS for a better ride. Honda needs to strengthen the frame, and maybe add a couple of cross members to improve payload and towing. It'll use the 3.5. Bump it up to Acura's specs or more. I wouldn't mind premium gas if it topped 300 hp and a better torque curve.

    I’ve been a Ridgeline owner for 14 years. I currently own a 2014 Sport with 95,000 miles (bought it new). It runs like a champ with only basic maintenance and a new battery. Blue book has it at 14k but I think it’s worth 17k-18k all day long. A cool redesign might make me pull the trigger! I’ve also been looking at the Nissan Frontier Pro Max, it’s a good looking truck.

    Don't fix what isn't broken. Look at GM and Ford's endless pickup recalls.

    I'm willing to bet that the look will be a 2026 or 2027 model. Honda CRV changed the look in Europe 2 years before it came to the US and they just redid the passport and pilot. It'll be 2 years before they change the Ridgeline.

Best one was when the mirror fell off and damaged the side of my Ridgeline and Honda agreed to replace the mirrors but they did not want to fix the damaged door. They finally fixed it when the pressure was put on. Now how stupid is it to put low beam LED and high beam halogen headlights. Ridgeline and Passport are the only vehicles in Honda line like this. My opinion is Honda is cheaping out and trying to use up all the part they have in inventory.
