New Houston Ridgeline Owner

Howdy!

I picked up my Ridgeline RTL Navi May 2, and barely have 200 miles on it. I really like the handling and suspension so far. Most of my 25K miles per year are on the highway, though.

I live in NW Houston and I'll be watching for meetings with other Ridgeline owners....just don't plan one in El Paso! LOL

Texas Cruiser

Welcome aboard. Good Color Choice. I live in Katy, but I work in the Copperfield area. Maybe I will see you sometime.

Hello fellow Texans Texas Cruiser and krdomingue,....pleased to meet both of you. We now have a Texas thread going. I'm in Kingwood by the airport. I am really lovin' my black Ridge I bought in March. I'm sure you both are lovin' yours as well. I researched SUV's and trucks for nearly a year and decided on the Ridge......... OK let's get some conversation going.....how do you guys like the 160 watt sound system? I am amazed at some of the threads I'm reading where people are gutting the speakers and the sub. I think the system was a bonus. It has excellent separation and doesn't breakdown at 30+. I am also enjoying the XM stations. Especially XM 40. Where else can you hear a set of Bloodrock / Wishbone Ash / Grateful Dead / Spooky Tooth / Ten Years After / Savoy Brown / Vanilla Fudge.....I haven't listened to AM or FM since my purchase. Houston is a big city, but hopefully we can cross paths in the future............

If you want to find the truth in life, don't pass music by.............

No complaints about the sound system or anything else, but I was never one for fancy sound systems. I do wish it had an I-Pod cable, but with a 6 disc CD player, it isn't a big deal. I have added a few extras to the truck, but so far everything is Honda branded. I am thinking about adding a device that will give me day time running lights.

I found a brochure for the ROC in the new member area. I have made a few copies and have started giving it out whenever I find another Ridgeline. My plan is to either give it to the driver if present or leave it on the windshield. I gave out my first one this morning. I am hoping to increase the Houston members to the point we can have a large get together. Not sure what we would do, but it would be cool to see a couple dozen all at one time.

Wow! Beautiful photos krdomingue!! You guys have more than a few active members in the great state of Texas. Time to have a meet & greets of your own huh?!? They're tons of fun to actually meet all your neighbors with RL's

Hey everyone. I posted my intro a couple months ago as I am in NW Houston also. Good to see some more Ridgeliners out here. We get a few more and maybe we can get a meet in the Copperfield area.:)

Welcome - your truck looks almost like mine......................

Here are some pictures of Humble Pie.............

I'm actually coming to Houston on saturday for a Civic meet. So if a Ridge meet comes together, I'll be there.

That would be my luck. They have a meet and I am going out of town. You can still vist my truck, it will be sitting in the Airport longterm parking. :)

Howdy all,

I am a proud new owner to a 2007 Steele Blue w/ Navi Ridgeline. I have noticed that some people have meets on here. If someone is having a meet sometime please let me know. I live in the Bear Creek area and work in Fort Bend County.

Keep it in between the ditches, most of the time.....

Welcome to the Froum, and to RL ownership!

Seems to be several people out in the NW area of Houston. I just bought my Steel Blue 08 RTS and I live in the Copperfield area also. A get together would be a good idea.

Did I read in one of the posts that you work for a Honda dealership? If so, that wouldn't happen to be John Eagle would it?

On a 15 mile trip from Pearland to Webster, I saw 4 other Ridgelines. Prior to buying mine in October, I saw 2 in 4 weeks. How many do we need for a quorum? :)

Hello,

Just bought my Ridgeline RTS Friday and from Goodson and LOVE IT, I purchased the XM radio parts (OEM) to have the service with my vehicle from www.handa-accessories.com. Was wondering if anybody new of a shop to have it installed, would like to keep everything factor if I can. No modifications. The dealer wants $668 to install to steep for me.

Thanks

I know this is an old post, but do you still work for Gillman? I just bought a used RT from John Eagle, and it has the crappy steel wheels. Just wondering if you guys ever get a full set of 17" Alloy stock wheels in when people upgrade.

Thanks,
