Aloha All! I've been a Nissan Frontier owner but Honda Ridgeline admirer for a while. I finally purchase a used '08 today and am very excited because I've always wanted a Honda truck. I'll be up all night reading up on all the forum posts :grin:

Welcome to the ROC Restless N8tiv!

Garry Flint, the project leader and chief engineer for the first generation Ridgeline (Gen1), has posted some great stuff on the ROC under his name and under the alias "Kodiak" that are worth perusing. His detailed video interviews on the 2006 Ridgeline are also worth watching. They will give you a good technique overview of your new (to you) truck.

Hello all. It's been a while since my last post of my purchase of the 2008 RTL. Well, that 2008 got totaled a day after Father's Day 2019, it got T-boned by another driver who wasn't looking my way when he exited the parking lot. But not to worry, I'm alright and I got me another RL. This time a 2010 RTL purchased in August 2019. Loving the truck so far. First and only mod so far is a drop in K&N filter from the 2008 RL. I have an Airaid intake but it's not applicable for the 2010 due to the location of the MAF. Attached is the pic of the day I drove it home. I hope everyone is doing well and healthy. Be safe friends....and keep 6 feet apart
