It has a trunk in the bed that is the size (or larger) than most sedan trunks (dry storage!).
I like my Honda because is a versatile vehicle. I LOVE the trunk in the bed of the truck, the fact that it sits higher than a car, has a backseat with more legroom than my Honda Civic (previous vehicle) did, has a bed that can be used to transport things, and I can transport two children in carseats and a full load of groceries without anything getting wet (it is WA after all). It is also a low maintenance vehicle.

I've had my car for many years and it is still very reliable. Some problems came up with the engine, but it was home-fixable.

Perfect overall vehicle for every person's need!!
We LOVE our Honda Ridgeline truck! It brings everything a car does but with the added benefit of plenty of storage room, a huge amount of extras and comfort beyond what any truck has ever given us! The ride is smoother than any truck before! There are plenty of options from which to choose! And there are plenty of colors for you to find the one that speaks to you!! I am wanting a new one, but the old one just won't wear out!! GREAT vehicle!

I like the truck because it is a 4 wheel drive, short bed, and is very roomy and comfortable as well as easy on gas
This is a gas saver and a tough vehicle for fun !

When you think of a truck, this is not it. . It's a lot better.
The truck has amazing compartments for storing and I love that the tailgate opens horizontally! It makes it so easy to put groceries in. It drives smooth and it fits my kids and dogs well.

It's great for hauling kids around that play sports.
I love the storage compartments located all over the truck. It's like having a car and truck in one. It's midsize so I can still get good parking.
accountCircle Raz R
It's a unibody construction which means it doesn't shake like other trucks.
I love the height and size. I love having a larger vehicle with power. It's difficult to navigate in tight spaces though, and difficult to park.
