It's only our second day with our Ridge and we used it as a truck today.
We flipped the seats up and the tow package in the box fit handily. We were on the way to the home repair store or we would have carried that in the open bed. We didn't buy much, but two eight foot long pieces of wood fit in the back and through the back window and a quarter piece of plywood in the back.
It wasn't much, but it was nice to have options of how to haul it.
We also got accosted
in the parking lot by someone who loved seeing a Ridge in person.
