    I'm not 100% sure on this but I'm pretty sure only the manuals have ATRAC while the autos have crawl control which is basically off road cruise control, set a speed between 1 and 5 mph and can only be used in 4LO and multi terrain select.

    Once again TFL doing a terrible job of trying to appear that they are doing a non bias review.

    Gotta love it at 2:32 in the vid when they purposely drive into an area NOT in 4WD knowing they are about to get the truck stuck and say are we in 4 wheel drive and then say if they were in the Ridgeline they wouldn't have got stuck because of the AWD.

    Why didn't the clowns go into that area in 4WD ?

    Easy answer, In my opinion, they knew they wouldn't have got stuck and could not have talked trash and pushed their agenda. Did Honda pay them to do the stupid video ? We will never know, but one cant help but to wonder.

    In my opinion it seems staged, like all the questions that the guy driving asked were rehearsed.

    At 8:57 the Honda employee says I`m a little bias, LOL, ya think ?

    I watched it to the 10 min mark and saw enough......:facepalm:

    The Honda doesn't have 4L. Put that thing in a steep uphill climb in some slick stuff and watch who comes out on top

    My truck is 2wd and I know it could handle that course! Man the Ridgeline is soooo ugly and it's basically a minivan with back chopped off!

    The Ridgeline is a poor excuse for a truck. If Honda had truly committed to building a TRUCK and not a car posing as a truck they would definitely be some real competition for Toyota in the the truck market. As it stands now the Ridgeline in its current form lacks "commitment" to being a truck. Toyota Motors probably breathed a sigh of relief once they saw the new Ridgeline.
