    That's fine, I'd never be caught dead driving one.

    haha, I like one of the comments on that article....

    "Cool truck, if you like that cut-out minivan look"

    That pretty much sums up the Ridgeline for me.

    I owned a 08' ridgeline before my Taco. The fit and finish was far better in the Honda, and I loved the in bed storage area. The cab was much roomier as well.
    Overall I do like my Taco more, but the Ridgeline was a good truck.
    The new body style would take some getting used to, but so did the old one...

    I would drive one any day. My wife has had 3 Honda Odysseys and they are in a class of their own - awesome materials, fit and finish.

    I agree the Ridgeline will never be able to keep up with the Tacoma or a Jeep off-road climbing rocks, but for my use, making Home Depot runs and occasional loading furniture for friends etc. while using it as a family vehicle most of the time, it will be great - loading the bikes, going camping etc.

    Yeah it's not really fair to judge it against a Tacoma, or most other trucks really...the Ridgeline being a unibody 'truck' is really more of an SUV with a truck bed. I'm sure they're great family vehicles, with Honda reliability to boot.
