Trunk Monkey for Ridgeline

Honda, I think it would be great to add a trunk monkey option in 2009 for those of us having problems backing up/parking our Ridgelines..There is a great space designed into the truck but where's my monkey?

Re: Trunk Monkey for Ridgeline

I love the trunk monkey.

As for people having trouble backing up you need to adjust your mirrors so that you can see something on the trunk that's a fixed position. The way I have my mirrors set up works great for me. If I am backing into a parking spot, at the point where my tires look like they are touching the line is the point where the rear bumper has reached the line. When you first park all you have to do is don't go back too far and then walk behind your truck and see how much room you have left. Then you will know how much further back you can go next time. You will improve each time.

I love those ads. Especially when the monkey throws the person off the bridge! LOL Of course, the one bribing the cop is cute, too!
