2011 Honda Ridgeline User Reviews

Pros

Comfortable, reliable & smooth ride

Cons

Fuel economy

Purchased As New

I was a Toyota owner my entire life. After purchasing my Honda Ridgeline in 2011 I am happy to say I have no regrets. The only thing on my wishlist would be to get better gas mileage.

Pros

Comfort, rugged, durable

Cons

fuel economy

Purchased As New

Awesome truck, does everything I require. In-bed trunk and duel action tailgate are great. Great interior.

Pros

Rides great, hidden trunk, back seats get out of your way.

Cons

Like everyone else, MPG is subpar for a V-6

Purchased As New

This truck grows on you to say the least. I looked at several trucks and was most impressed with the overall package. This is NOT a full size truck nor does Honda claim it to be. It's perfect for my needs (balance between kids, projects, vacations, camping, etc.). I would not recommend getting the NAV given what Honda charges for it. Much better options for less $ in 3rd party products. I took this truck on a 1500K trip with 4 adults plus a loaded bed and averaged 21-22 MPG. I would recommend getting the roof rack and running boards (tubes). Gives the truck a better overall appearance (if you care about that kind of stuff)....read morehide

Pros

Excellent smooth ride with lots of room inside

Cons

Gas milage is disappointing 15mpg

Purchased As New

This is the first new car that I did not have any probelms with when I took it back to the dealer for its first oil change and tire rotation. Very Happy - This is one vechicle you get what you pay for in return and more.

Pros

Best truck out there

Cons

None

Purchased As New

I have put 1500 lbs in the back with no sweat. The quality is second to none, I love the duel action tailgate.

Pros

This truck grows on you. The longer I have it, the more I like it.

Cons

Fuel efficiency is the only negative for this vehicle; 17 city, 21 hwy.

Purchased As New

Rounded front on 2010s really make a difference. Truck bed is smaller that a 3/4 conventional, but it has F/T AWD which is a real advantage in wet/snow conditions. Stereo is excellent, and under back seat storage is unique! Under-Bed locking compartment is VERY spacious, and great for carrrying nitnaks around. Seating is excellent, and three adults in back is no problem. Ergonomics are great, and overall this is a well built, reliable vehicle. I am tryuly surprosed at how well I have adapted to my first truck!...read morehide

Cons

broke the hood release plastic thingy by pulling up not out. V-8?

Purchased As Used

i increased my gas mileage by 20+% and acceleration by adding the platinum gas saver (800-lessgas) . it works and my check engine light doesn't light up as it did before with changes in brand of gasoline. simple to install. i bought this 2006 used with 72k miles on it and have 125k now. it still feels like new. it is an rtl and i towed a 4500 lb trailer with no problem. i am going to try towing a 6500 lb trailer and hope it can handle the load.

Pros

Great Ride! Very smooth! Love the hidden trunk!

Cons

Gas mileage

Purchased As Used

I love this truck - it has been my fave automobile of all time (dating back to the mid 80's). As long as you have good tires - it does great in snow... it's an attractive vehicle and drives like a car. My brother in law immediately bought one after driving mine. Mine is a 2006 model - and I'll have it til it won't run any longer! Fuel mileage is the only negative. I get around 18-20 mpg .. which is decent for a truck - just not great with gas so expensive. I mainly use it for trips to the dump and to Lowe's --- and in the winter. I have another vehicle better on gas that I use in great weather....read morehide

Pros

Drives great, extremely well designed, Honda through and through

Cons

none

Purchased As New

I absolutely love this truck! The design features make it extremely usable. The back seat is very convenient(especially with the seats folded up), the trunk holds my golf clubs perfectly, I love the double action tailgate. Drives great, cuts very sharply, and rides nice. Those who talk about the mpg.....it IS a 4 wheel drive truck! I get between 16-17 in town, not bad for 4wd and 5,000 pound vehicle. It never slipped a tire in a 24" snowfall last year, made me a big believer in the computerized 4 wheel drive. Just a great truck, much better than the Dodge I traded in!...read morehide

Pros

Very quiet, reliable, smooth ride

Cons

fuel economy is low for a v6, kinda pricey

Purchased As New

Overall I love the ridgeline. I took it offroading and it made it over hills an H3 got stuck on. I love the limited slip diff.
