Price Paid:  $350000.00

Summary:
We compared this "truck" to the Chevy Avalance in episode 4 of our weekly podcast Burnout Radio which you can see here:

i have to say, i was not impressed at all with the ridgeline. it has just over 80 horse power less than the avalance, has less torque, and 2 less cylinders, but it only get 1 more mile per gallon than the avalance! it also sits too low to the ground to use off road. and the interior has a cheep feel to it, even for a honda. with that said the trunk in the bed is a really nice feature, and the cubby holes in the interior are large and well arranged. it's just a bad copy of the chevy avalanche. if you are looking to buy this vehicle please listen to our full review at the link above, and be sure to take a look at the chevy avalanche. honda usually makes a good product but they're not even in the ball park with this one.

Strengths:
it's a honda so it will have good resale value, and it will last for ever, and be extremely reliable. good storage spaces

Weaknesses:
bed's to small, this is a pretend truck on a car chassis and it shows in the ride and drive. gas mileage is very poor considering chevy gets the same mileage in a heavier truck with an engine that's almost 2 liters bigger!
