After 11 short months I sold my 09 Ridgeline for a 2015 Jetta. I am going miss my Ridgeline but it just wasn't the right time or the right fit for my family. For a number of reasons my driving increased from when I first bought the truck and all summer long we didn't drive as much because of the we were missing a easier vehicle on the fuel. My wife still had a Rav4 but it's not the most enjoyable vehicle on long trips. We started looking for a replacement mid summer but took a long time to find the right deal that didn't leave me with the negative equity from the Ridgeline on top of a new car. We started off looking for a used cars but I found someone to do a convenience deal on the Ridgeline and I had planned to buy a used TDI from my local VW dealer but we decided to buy a brand new gas Jetta. I am some what regretting this decision now because my wife has stolen the Jetta and left me with the rav4, I'm ok with this but if I knew she would have been happy with a car I would have traded in the Rav before the Ridge. She said before she didn't want to get rid of the Rav4 so I didn't even push the issue, it's almost paid off and had half the mileage of my Ridgeline. Maybe by the time the new Ridgeline is released I'll be back in the market.
I loved the truck and everything it had to offer, but the fuel econ sucked and I could never get past that. If my driving would have stayed the same I would have kept it no problem. I will have another.
