... Now for the final approval as we've never seen a RL with the 'Forest Mist' color in person. We'll be going to see the truck on Friday morning. ...

I see you saw my Forest Mist photo posts on that thread. Hopefully they're of some help for you. Good luck on your decision (and also Happy Thanksgiving).

I love my Ridgeline, and would buy it all over again in a heartbeat. My wife and I have owned a variety of vehicles present (2006 Mercury Grand Marquis and 1985 Alfa Romeo Spider), plus many vehicles past: 2011 Accord Coupe and 2009 Accord Sedan, 1998 Olds Intrigue, 1995 Mazda Miata, 2000 & 1996 Ford Windstars, and various Mustangs, & other cars and pickups from the 80's & 90's. I've also rented 2014-6 Ford Explorers (for business trips) and 2014-6 Ford F150's & Chev Silverados (for towing our boat to the marina & back seasonally).

Of all of the above, our RTL-E Ridgeline is the quietest, most comfortable (second only to the Grand Marquis), and has handling (in a "truck equivalent sense") right up there with our Miata, Accords, and Alfa. All that, and it's a pickup too! We love it, and have no buyer's remorse on either the vehicle or the color.

Congratulations!! Post some pix after you pick it up

(though it must have been sad to give up your Challenger as 1 of your 2 trade-ins)

I've always had a soft spot for Mopar muscle cars. When I was in college I had a used 1969 Dodge Dart GT coupe (gold metallic with black vinyl roof). My dear departed dad found it and bought it for me. It only had a 273 cid V8, but it was still a taste hint of that muscle era. I loved that car. After college, I traded it in (@129K miles) traded it in on a new Mustang, but it wasn't the same...

Two of my high school classmates had big block 1970 Challenger and Charger. Don't know if they were hemis, but probably would be collector cars now. I really like the look and vibe of the the current 3rd gen (2008-up) Challengers.

You will go through the 5 stages of grieving on giving up your Challenger (LOL), but life goes on and these are "first-world problems"
