[axesbowledaslove]

Howdy all,
They delivered our new truck to us today. Took a bit of prodding, but our daughter is in the hospital and it is tough for us to both leave town at the same time. Here are some pics of the new truck.

A beauty, ain't she?

Congrats! looks great!
Hey JC, how we gonna work "color my world" can we add colors to the poll?

[axesbowledaslove]

Thank you so much everyone for the kind words and thoughts. Our youngest daughter has pneumonia. She went into the hospital on monday and is still there, having a tough time fighting it. She is 27; the situation is complicated due to the fact that she is 26 weeks pregnant and they have to be very careful about the meds they give her. Her husband is with her along with her mother. I just got back from the hospital. Hoping for some good improvement tomorrow.

Best,
Scott

Ridgester, I hadn't thought about it until you mentioned it. We will have to start a new poll unless TMac can add to the current one. :(

Very nice!:cool: Hope and prayers for your daughter!!!

[allhans]

That looks awesome.

Welcome aboard the ROC train!! Great looking truck.

[lgmendez]

Awesome color. I remember when I first brought mine home. I just wanted to tell you to be careful with the part of the bra that covers the hood. I have one also, OEM Honda, that ended up leaving marks on the hood and it messed up specks of the clear and paint with the hot sun. It left scratches right on the center part of the hood from when it flops with the speed. I already took it to the dealer to complain and they told me that they had to speak to the Honda rep to look at it.

Enjoy your truck and best wishes for your daughter.

[axesbowledaslove]

Echoing thanks for the kind thoughts, everyone. Luis, thanks for the tip in the bra. I'll watch it.

[jj's ridge]

Congratulations on the new truck! Love the color!
And, to echo the other's sentiments, your new "extended family" at the ROC will keep your daughter and family in our thoughts and prayers! Please keep us posted!:)

Howdy all,

Congratulations! If you're quick, you could be the first 07 addition to our zipcode thread and member map - http://www.ridgelineownersclub.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2235

Beautiful truck!

And prayers for your daughter. I've had some friends that have had pnuemonia and they are fine now so I'm praying that your daughter will be victorious and leave the hospital soon.

best of luck with your ridge, and my best for your daughter

Congratulations on your purchase! The red is stunning!

[meanmachine19]

Congrats on your new '07! The pics are awesome and it's an interesting color. For me, there really is no bad color for an RL and it's nice to see Honda come out with new colors for the new year!

Good luck and welcome to the ROC!! :D

[fredridge]

Great color, but more importantly I am praying for your daughter and grandchild

[axesbowledaslove]

All of the kind wishes and prayers from the wonderful commenters here are deeply appreciated. Our daughter is out of the hospital and home. She is still sick, though seems to be improving day by day. Future Grandchild seems to have weathered the storm well. We are delighted to have her out of the hospital and on the mend.

The new Ridgeline is really nice. I had to take it down to San Diego and back yesterday with a lot of running around along the way. It is quite happy noodling along at 80, very stable and quiet, and is absolutely the most comfortable truck I have ever owned. The engine surprised me with its power. The truck does not accelerate as well as my 4.7L V-8 Dakota did, but it certainly has adequate power.

Now all I have to do is figure out how to set the presets on the audio system and we'll be set.

Welcome to the ROC

Glad to hear all are doing better.

Your Gonna love this truck!!!!!!:D

[Applebag]

Congrats on your new RL!!! Its a great color!!

I just wanted to mention that I too had problems with a front protective bra on another vehicle that I owned.

If you do not remove and clean underneath the bra (both the hood and the fabric) a light film of dirt and dust will build up and with the flapping of the material over time and speeds, will cause scratches and dullness to the paint. I found that it just want worth the problem and removed it before it caused too much dammage.:mad:

It gives the vehicle a nice look, but not sure if its worth the potential dammage it might cause.

Just my 2cents... Hope it helps! :)

[PhillyGirl2006]

Wow! Beautiful color!!! Also glad to hear your daughter is home and that the baby is doing fine as well!

[Tim1954Tinman]

OMG..that color is nothing but AWESOME.

LadyRidge, I have to say I was :eek: when I came across this statement.

I thought Sliver was the ONLY color for you.

Could there be a Dark Cherry Pearl in your future?:confused:
