What a great first post.

Well it doesn't appear to mind that too much!

To be honest, what I have put this vehicle through has been much more punishing than my posted videos. To date, I have rescued a Chevy Suburban 4x4, Ford F250 4x4, and a Jeep Cherokee at a local 4x4 hotspot. All stuck in various states of discontent. I also pulled another vehicle up a steep ice covered mountain road (about 1.5 miles) to safety. Every owner commented on being pulled out by a Honda... they were all sad.

Besides having this vehicle airborne several occasions, it serves as my race car hauler. 34K miles of hard driving and no problems. I am expecting to break suspension parts first, so we will see...

If you do break suspension parts at some time in the future, I ask one thing of you. Please, post some pictures! Come on, we need to show those idiots who keep saying "it's not a truck," just how MUCH of a truck the Ridgeline is. Show how much abuse and use the truck can handle!

2point6... Welcome to the ROC... Looks like a lot of fun...

From the Desert of Tucson (in the mud) to Durango Co. A few days later...

Lots of fun in the snow too. I know this is just a dusting of snow, but on the icy roads to the ski park, the Ridgeline handled itself better than my old 1 ton Chevy dually 4X4 would in the snow.

I didn't recognize those first two photos are video links, so I thought I'd mention it for others who come by to see your truck. Great posts. Best color too!

Dude, this is from the snow storm in Tucson we had back in January.

THAT was what was on my Tundra. Our roads were partially closed and a fifteen minute drive to the hospital took almost an hour. My Mom slipped on the ice in the backyard on Sunday (when we had the snow storm) and hurt her arm. Not broken, but not right. I took her to the ER. Geeze. People here can't drive worth SCHNIT on ice or through snow.
