What Do You Want To Know About The 2017 Honda Ridgeline?

"...This week we finally get to test, drive, and apparently even “off-road” it for ourselves. Get your questions in now!..."

Can you really get sheep 'into' the bed - and not get arrested?

Does it have an anti-p*ssy magnet?

What size tires are on the trucks you're testing and do they match the size stated on the driver's side door pillar? Also, what is the tread (all-terrain or all-season)?

Edit: Oh, now I see you have to go the website to ask your questions...never mind.

What classifies it as a truck vs a SUV, van or mini van. I might have spoke to soon might because it has box. Still waitng but that Tacoma and Canyon is lookin better everyday.

You've been pretty hard on the G2 RL, but yet you don't seem to have completely written it off. What keeps it in the hunt for you?

 

[Q Tech]

1) Size of the OEM tires?
2) Cost of the "accessory" wheels?
3) Height of hitch from ground to center of receiver?
4) What audio packages are available?
5) Do the seats have adjustable lumbar support?

Thank you

How nimble and easy to park? I already know it will have a better ride than a real truck. If it turns out that it is fun to drive I might sell my Ram 1500 and get the RL.

1. Wheelbase measurement.
2. Turning circle
3. Front and rear track
4. Wheel/tire size

I realize most of these measurements are going to be tough to get, but even an eyeball guestimate would be helpful.

You're not going to be able to guess turning circle, but how tightly are you able to turn corners? This is the one thing I don't want to give up about the Tacoma, which in many other ways does not make for an enjoyable driving experience.

No, it will be a hit with Soccer Moms.

Great questions, but I don't think any of them will be answered here. I read it that you have to post your questions on the the linked site. Maybe I'm wrong.

Does it have an anti-p*ssy magnet?

No need to wait for the Jalopnik test to get an answer. Clearly it does. Turbo-charged and supercharged. Electro-magnet if I am not mistaken. 100% guaranteed to work by Honda, to a 10-mile radius. 20-mile radius if you go with the "Priest Ride" trim level.

Stopped by the Toyota dealer today to get a first hand look at the Tacoma. Nice vehicle, but not nearly as spacious in the rear seat area as the Ridgeline.

The sales rep asked me what he could do today to earn my business. I told him, nothing, I was waiting on the debut of the new Ridgeline. He started laughing and said I was crazy to consider that minivan. My son was getting irritated and wanted me to delineate all the outstanding features of the Ridgeline over the Tacoma. I paused, but seriously should have schooled that Toyota fanboy, and told him the only thing the Tacoma has over the Ridgeline is off-roading.

It will be a pleasure to pull up in the Toyota lot in my new Ridgeline to pick up an oil filter for my wife's Camry Hybrid. I will specifically ask for that salesman by name.

Nop soccer moms have moved to RAMs and f150's. For some reason they don't like GM monster trucks.

No. They're for tailgating not movies.

That's an issue with the perception of the Ridgeline...it's a minivan. Whether Honda wants to admit or not that perception hurt the sales.
