According to the company's press materials, the Ridgeline was designed for "trips to remote trailheads for motorcycle, ATV, and mountain bike riding and camping, as well as excellent all-weather capabilities." We'd agree that, thanks to its fully independent suspension and a full ladder frame incorporated into the unibody, the Ridgeline rides and handles on washboard dirt roads better than any other pickup we've driven. No rattles, axlehop, or bumpsteer, just smooth tracking and sure-footed handling.

But its all-wheel-drive powertrain, a single-speed, front-wheel-biased system that can send up to 70 percent of the engine's torque to the rear wheels, can be easily overwhelmed. Even with the rear diff lock engaged, we were unable to climb a rutted hill at our local off-road park that would have been, well, a walk in the park for any truck with a 50-50 front/rear torque split and low range. We also noticed that the suspension offered little droop in the ruts, easily lifting a wheel where other trucks would have tires planted and working.

There's no question that the Ridgeline, Honda's first pickup, is a significant addition to the truck market. Its SUV-like road manners, well-appointed interior, and surprisingly strong payload and towing capacities make it a viable player in certain segments of the new-truck market.

What turned me off was the price,when we were looking at them several years ago they were 5K to 6K dollars higher than a full size domestic .

They are substantially higher than a Tacoma also. (I'm comparing the two just wondering which one is better---got a Tacoma right now)
