A fellow worker bought a 2019 because he needed something to haul a small trailer and he's not a truck guy. He absolutely loves his because it's car like, but does light truck duties just fine.
The ridgeline can haul a variety of boats up to 20ft with 5000lbs. Quite substantial for hauling personal gear.
Having driven nothing but Ridgelines since 2005 (called a 2006 model) in my timber business, I was not at all surprised it scrambled up that hill. They are far more capable than most believe.
How are they with ground clearance? My Tacoma was just totaled and am looking for an alternative. The honda drivetrain claims similar durability/longevity. I've definitely made contact with the skid plates on the taco with the rutted trails I've had to drive. Worried the independent suspension and lack of skid plates could leave me stranded. Thanks in advance if you have the time to share your experience.
@@radagast6322 depends. Newer ones aren’t amazing (think 7.9” range), while the old ones are upper 8” range. BUT they do make lift kits ranging from 1.5” level to 3.5” rake, plus a lifting strut kit. I have an older one (2010) and I have done some stupid stuff with mine hehehe.
@@noahpowers1513 I'm thinking of getting a new Ridgeline, and thinking about a lift once purchasing, but my concern is how that affects the warranty and the long term effects on Honda's engineering. The pictures I've seen of lifted Ridgelines look great, but I wonder how they'll hold up 5-10 years afterward.
That’s because of the way they look. If they improve the look it will sell!
Can I ask in what capacity do you use these trucks in your timber business?
The perfect truck for those that doesn’t want a traditional truck
The perfect “truck” for those that don’t want a traditional car. Fixed it for ya. 🇨🇦👍🏼
Right - it's a Honda Accord Truck.
It’s actually a Honda Pilot Truck not an Accord.. Your welcome!
The most capable SUV I've ever seen.
what the truck
If Honda doesn't use this review, they're idiots. You approached this "truck" exactly like most of us would as an underwhelming contender in the segment...and I guarantee that extended off-road excursion changed a lot of minds. "Pleasantly surprised" perfectly personifies your review. Thx Sarah!
I have a 17 and it's an excellent truck for my uses. It tows my 4K travel trailer with ease, carries 4 large adults, gets great around town and highway fuel economy (not towing) of 21 and 29 mpg. The faster you go, the better the fuel economy. Living in New England, it's awesome in the snow. Easy to park, extremely reliable, fun to drive and looks great. Perfect for my use.
Have you considered adding a lift due to the snow?
I've had one about 3 weeks, I love it. This weekend I took at a trip to my parents and averaged 27.2 MPG. I was wondering how that would go because, going out there, it's a 3000 foot elevation change over 70 miles (4000' at my house, they live in the high desert at 7000'). Mileage going out was 23. Back at my house, it was 27.2 MPG for the whole round-trip (average 72 MPH). I think this speaks well for the Ridgeline.
The truck 75% of truck owners actually need...
Agreed but dang 50k . 5 more thousand and you can get a trailboss or f150
@@sschevmale24 ur comparing a top trim to a base tho that's like comparing a base maverick to a trd sport
@@MonicaHolly143 whats a base trim?
@@MonicaHolly143 custom trailboss is 51k msrp and lt trailboss is 57k. And yes you can get a trailboss lt for 55k if you know how to deal. Honda doesn't budge much on their trucks. More room with trailboss. F150 is a bit cheaper
Too bad it’s not “manly” enough for em lmao I see more ppl using midsize trucks then full-size
It made the hill because the Ridgeline has true torque vectoring. The torque vectoring also make the truck fun to drive on the road and handles very well when thrown in to turns.
I got a 2023 two weeks ago. I was also surprised at the hills that it would go up when I was out in the desert. So far I'm real happy. It did well in the desert and on the interstate to get there. The interstate has a speed limit of 80 MPH, I ran with the cruise control on 85 MPH most of the time, and got it up to 95 on a couple of short stretches just to see how the truck felt (it was rock-solid). Great commute truck and for my brand of light off-roading.
it's Honda's i-VTM4 system - torque vectoring is for going around corners at higher speeds
On glorified all seasons too.
Just picked up my new Ridgeline. After watching this video I am even more pumped! SNT is amazing, intelectual, funny and attractive woman. Can't wait to put BFG KO2's T/A's on this Honda! Thank you so much for all you do SNT. We love you!
I think it's SnT😊
The best review I ever seen about the Ridgeline. Well done Sarah
AND, her review is not full of a bunch of salesman BS that gets everybody running for the exits. Plain English that is relatable and actual tests, that's the way to go, not a bunch of doubletalk, crap, and gimmicks.
@@Skank_and_Gutterboy That's true
Kinda like female version of Clarkson, americanized
Alot of people underestimated that truck, I really like it
It has its place, but I really don't think it would survive in the back country in West Virginia, Colorado, or Utah type mountains.
@@richardlapoint1845 I see them all the time in the Rockies, it certainly isn't a rock crawler, but it's also more comfortable to drive than a rock crawler.
@@richardlapoint1845 strangely enough, I live in WV. I have a Ridgeline and no its not as capable as the Tacoma or Colorado off road versions. The new Frontier is nice as well. The Ridgeline excels in ride, usable power, and it really does well on anything that isn't requiring a locking diff. It is better in the snow than the Tacoma and Colorado (I've owned all three)
That hidden trunk and pivoting tailgate are quite ingenious.
Ford/Mercury had the pivoting tailgate back in the late 60s.
@@250GTOAJ Mom drove a '69 Ford wagon with that tailgate. It had a crank down window in it too.
I picked up the Ford Ranger in 2019 and love it! Coming from my 2003 F150 Supercrew FX4 that I had since new I would love to have the bunk (bed trunk). Love the truck but need more storage space! Kinda like the tailgate idea also.
@@mikejacob3536 our neighbours Mercury Marquis wagon at least had power rear window. Everything Old is New Again :D
yeah ! for mobsters who like to hide things in the trunk !
This is the best vehicle review I've seen. It covers all the aesthetic, mechanical, unique features, and performance characteristics at an appropriate level, while not wasting time on unnecessary stuff or information that's available from the manufacturer's site -- while being engaging, entertaining, and enjoyable.
Making what might normally be a mundane review about a pickup truck with this high level of production value is a major accomplishment. Combine that with the revelation that Honda broke the mold for the vehicle segment in a way that brings important improvements to the typical body-on-frame approach, this presentation provides a 1-2 knockout punch for anyone looking to buy in this market -- very impressive! Should be the model for all reviews -- not just vehicles.
I feel exactly the same! Nice summary.
I have a 2017 ridgeline I bought a couple years a go, I love it. Everything the 2021 has mine has. It is very comfortable, great mpg. Good power. The trunk, the tailgate. Great truck. That's right a truck.
do you have any misgivings about that zf 9 speed?
It warms my heart that Sarah has a happy dance. Granted, it was more of a "ow my feet are on fire" dance, but close enough
@badopinionsrighthere - Agreed. (Let's dance) to the song they're playing on the radio © David Bowie 1983
"You can't do real off road with a Ridgeline"
Yea, OK.
Really happy to see reviewers showing what these are capable of. Honestly, I can't understand why they aren't more popular. I love my 2019 sport. Near perfection for my use.
Your enthusiasm makes these videos so enjoyable.
Sarah your look of uncertainty right before the brake test cracks me up every time, lmao.
I have yet to see anyone anywhere on any review show a bone-stock Ridgeline's capability than the hill climb at about 16 minutes in. Wow. Sarah gets full credit for knowing exactly how to take a line and keep momentum going in the right places ... well done, and this video is literally helping Honda make at least one Ridgeline sale :-)
You forgot the mention that the “trunk” has a drain plug, so you could make it into a huge beer cooler!
Also incase you can’t find the pull cord to escape you could send smoke signals out of it. 🤔
@@SarahnTuned 🤣
@@SarahnTuned or breathe!
Or a mini bathtub!
Glad you got around to reviewing the Ridgeline. Especially enjoyed the time you spent under it. No other reviews did that. Thank you Sarah!
Thank you for this review. And thank you for saying what this truck is. Not everyone is hauling a 40ft gooseneck camper up a mountain. People are quick to say "that's not a truck because it's unibody" . The truth is it's the truck most people will use on a daily basis.
I love the way you do your car reviews, Sarah - Especially that you are not shy to do proper off-road tests makes your tests so much better than other (maybe more famous) you-tubers who only ever drive their test cars on the road. The part when you put them on the lift to show the "underbelly" is just awesome too and put your tests even further ahead. - But the number one thing that no-one can beat, is your winning personality. You are top notch Sarah!
I had a Ridgeline Black Edition - first year they had this body style. I loved that truck - but needed a bit more space so went to something larger. But the Ridgeline has a lot of great features! I miss the in-bed trunk more than anything!
I got a 2023 Black Edition last week and I love it. Whenever I show anybody the in-bed trunk they're like, "That is awesome!" That's where I put my desert gear.
Awesome you did a review on this, I just bought a 2021 RTL and I love it. You're totally right about it being its own thing and not competing with other trucks. It's like a Swiss army knife of vehicles 👍
more like the old suburu brat.
Those dots are like "Oops we almost drilled into the rim. Well add about 8 more and we will call it a feature!"
This is seriously the best Ridgeline review I've seen yet. A couple months ago I replaced my 2020 F150 5.0 supercrew 4wd with a '23 Ridgeline RTL. I downsized because I was tired of daily driving a school bus riddled with QC issues just so I could tow my 3,000lb boat/motor/trailer on weekends during the summer... I was also pretty done with the lack of quality from the big three overall, so I decided to try my first Asian. The Ridgeline tows great, it's damn stable, has no issues with slimy wet boat ramps, and it's hella comfy for long tows. Loving it so far.
You made a key comment there. I bought a 94 GMC 1500 Sierra, thinking I'd like an old truck, but boy was I wrong. The damn thing actually steers better with the tilt wheel tilted full up, like driving a bus. The truck is in perfect condition and going to the Goodguys car show in Columbus this summer to sell it off. The Ridgeline makes the GMC feel like crap.
I'm really glad you reviewed the new Ridgeline, it just keeps getting better and better. It is a niche vehicle, you can't really call it a car or a truck in the traditional sense. BTW, it's front wheel drive until it senses slip, and then transfers power appropriately. I've owned a 2008 for about eight years now, it's been super reliable, very comfortable to drive, and has proven itself many times over. When they first came out I thought they were really weird, but after owning one for some time now it's a great vehicle. A lot of thought and innovations went into it, things that domestic manufacturers should take note of.
The 2nd Gen i-VTM4 is a “high load” system that transfers power before there is slip. In fact, it transfers power to the rear more often than not.
It is mechanically identical to SH-AWD, but is programmed for maximum traction and stability vs maximum handling. It’s really a great system, and quite a bit different from the 1st Gen VTM-4 system.
2021 70% rear
I bought a 2023 a week ago. Whenever I show anybody the tailgate that you can drop or swing, and then show them the in-bed trunk, they're like "DAMN!! That is cool!!" Not just cool, it has actual utility. I've already found out how nice it is to not have to fight with wheel-wells when putting something wide in the back.
As others have said, the best review of the Ridgeline I've seen online. Well done and glad you had a blast with the truck!
My brother always said that the wagon was the 1960s-1970s version of the modern SUV. There is a ton of reasons to appreciate the ridgelilne as long as you accept it for what it is. My brother was also the one that used to lock me in the little trunk portion of our family wagon similar to the one in that Ridgeline bed. (Stares in to space reflecting on being the middle child...). Great video again; content, production quality, technical and practical proficiency. Right on.
Really enjoyed the picture-in-picture segment in the desert. I too am more impressed than I thought I’d be. Great review! 👍
Great review. I'm sending this to my brother. He's been wanting a Ridgeline for some time now, I think he'll love the review you did.
You are therapy in an ofttimes weary world. Well done !
Wow Sarah what an amazing review of the ridge line. You really looked like you were having fun with this one and I now have a new found respect for that truck. I too thought it was just a van with a bed.Your description of what Honda was going for I feel was spot on!! Thank you for all your hard work and I wish I could give the video two thumbs up!!
Girl you are on fire. Great job. I'm on my second ridgeline. Absolutely love them.
Thanks Sarah for doing stuff in this truck that I likely will never try. Glad to know it's possible!
"You could store a couple mountain bikes back here" - my first thought was "Bonus rifle storage location!"
You can slide rifles easily under the back seat and leave it down. I've had tons of passengers in the backseat and they've never known but they're sitting on top of a couple rifles in my 2018
@@davidschachle6689 yeah I do the same in my 2015 high country, rifles, medkits, and a breakdown kit.
I have literally had the in-bed trunk of mine packed full of pistol caliber carbines before, it is wide enough to accommodate short carbine cases.
@@davidschachle6689 I bought an after-market storage box that goes under the rear seat and...it has built-in rifle mounts
I really like these trucks. In reality, all I'll ever need as a home owner/diy'er.
It's literally what MOST truck owners would ever need. People argue over this being "a truck" or not - when Honda themselves came out and said this is NOT a truck designed for truck people, it's the comfort of an SUV with the utility of a pick up....Plus, That locking trunk?! GENIUS!
@@mikenormandy9250 my big argument is that it's a midsized truck with a full size price tag. That's why these aren't more popular, my 1500 high country was $50k the Ridgeline black edition is $48k they got to lower that gap if they want to appeal to more prospective buyers.
I love the Ridgeline and have wanted one since the 2nd get came out- so I've seen alllllll the reviews on YT, and this is by far the best.
Hey Sarah, definitely one of your best off-road reviews you are so natural it looks like someone’s filming you’re having a great time but I know it’s a lot of work. Always thought those trucks were interesting that hidden trunk with the spare tire I love shit like that have a great one🐧🐧🐧👍
It’s just short of a mental breakdown level of work 😂 but thank you!
@@SarahnTuned You’re very welcome🍪
You are a fricken riot girl! 🤣😂. Above all else my fav part of watching your videos is the braking tests. It’s quite apparent that you get your jollies most by slamming on those brakes as evidenced by how 99% of the time, you burst out with a hearty, genuine LOL!! Priceless!!
I recently found out that GM is being sued for their 5.3 V8 truck engine. It is using way too much oil. I am now considering trucks like this one instead. Honda has a great record for dependability and quality that is worth the extra money. So thank you for the impartial and honest review.
This is the best review I’ve seen of the Honda Ridgeline. 👍🏻
One of the better reviews of auto/trucks I’ve seen. Thank you.
Nice review Sarah! I owned a 2013 Ridgeline Sport (same V6 @ 250 BHP and 5 speed auto) and loved that truck. It was the best riding truck I've every driven too. Great vehicle.
You sold me on this! I been looking at the Honda Ridgeline, but your review made it clear that I should go for one! Thanks!
Likewise…
Really happy to see this review. I’m kind of a Honda person. What can I say… I’m on my fourth one. All have lasted well over 300,000 miles with regular service. Low cost, dependable, fun, pretty easy to work on.
Definitely the best review ever. Entertaining and informative and well put together video with no BS. Great job.
Have an 08 Ridgeline, absolutely love it. Nice to know Sara gets it now.🥰
Sarah, the understeer may have been a matter of not enough "beans." If you stay in the throttle, the AWD system actually overdrives the outside wheels in a curve to minimize understeer. If you had alternating understeer/oversteer, you were probably right on the edge of triggering that feature.
I just picked up a 2023 RL in Feb and found this video. I enjoy your reviews and sense of humor. Keep up the great channel.
Great review…I absolutely love my 2019 RTL-T, it’s great in the city or even long drives. Handles fantastic.
Honda's Vtec + Acura's Super Handling AWD = WIN, WIN!
i think the sh-awd was mainly responsible for getting that truck up the hill...
@@twystedhumour 100%
I love my 2017 Ridgeline and I just ordered a 2021 replacement that is coming with those bronze wheels. They are growing on me. It’s perfect for my needs.
It would be perfecr for my weed as well !
Very fun - u kept such an open mind & didn't let others' opinions bias your review of this "truck" - well done!
I’m impressed, the way it took the hill !
Looks like we know what Honda did with all the left over Honda Element fenders.
I really miss the Element, too. They were such cool little vehicles, I especially loved the Element SC in Rootbeer.
That's funny I was just thinking about how much I used to like the Element, and I actually don't like brown or yellow cars but in root beer it looked just right!( I usually prefer white cars but the Element in white looks horrible!!!)
I've always liked the ridge line but probably just because I'm a big fan of Honda's cars,motorcycles,and generators.
Sure wouldn't mind seeing Muslim Diesels take one of these new ones out for a spin.(100% sure that won't happen!)
@@brian5o I sold cars for a year at a upscale dealership. We got an element in on trade. I took pictures and broke the rules and placed it on craigslist. I sold it the same day. I know people are just crazy for them. They're a great car and have a large following in the reno/truckee/ tahoe area because they're dog friendly and you can stand 2 mountain bikes side by side in them.
I have an awd Element with 260k mile and it had no trouble with a foot and a half of snow a few years ago. People who like to make fun of them don't know how great they really are.
@@buzztp5119 I know. The only downside I saw in them was massive road noise. But that might just have been the tires that were on those particular vehicles
The trunk actually has a drain plug, so you can fill it with ice and cans/bottles of your favorite liquid refreshments. Then just drain the water.
Drink holes are probably there to let the water out that leaked in. No way that compartment is staying clean and dry.
@@johnkbear3901 The trunk is actually weather sealed. I think it was The Straight Pipes who put a bunch of clothes in the trunk and went through a car wash - everything came out perfectly dry.
Looks like you could fit 5+ cases and a few bags of ice easily.
@@johnkbear3901 water doesn't get into it, I keep my golf bag in there and go through car washes all the time
@@johnkbear3901 100% water proof.
I do fiber installs in a 2019. I can fit all my modems, routers, power supplies, gaffs, climbing belt, everything in the bed trunk. I love it.
Best review on this truck yet. Ended up ditching the Insight and getting a 2023 Ridgeline RTL HPD. Love it!
First, you did a terrific job reviewing the Ridgeline. I have a 2017 now and had a 2007. I was a little confused with your rating system as you really liked the truck but it didn't rate that well otherwise. Sometimes I wish it had more towing capacity, but otherwise it does haul a lot for a smaller truck (one of the best payload capacities in its class). My complaints are that the rear doors don't open wide enough on the 2017 and that the tailgate/door does not lock with the rest of the truck. Both of these issues can be fairly easily remedied.
Dang Sarah is out there getting after it in the press truck.
Your knowledge and enthusiasm deserves my sub. Nice job 🤘🏻
YES!!!! The signature Sarah seat bolster test.
I was totally surprised how capable the Ridgeline is!
The swing out tailgate is pretty cool, and the trunk space below the bed is genius. Impressive review. Glad you didn't get yourself stuck in the trunk.
There's a release lever inside the trunk lid
@@B-rad1 why?

What Dave said - and cause people have kids, lol
I bought a 2020 Ridgeline RTL-E. ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT.
This the best video because it was released on my Birthday. You crack me up. Killin' it Sarah.
If you don't need a truck to do some medium to hard off road driving, then this is a great "truck". It's utility is awesome and it is awesome in the snow if you live in an area that gets snow during winter. I decided on the Tacoma TRD Off-Road, but I was looking at the Ridgeline real hard. I just wanted the better off-road capability.
That's a clever vehicle right there, Honda signature. Loved the video editing too Sarah, very nice.
Great work on the Ridgeline, thanks for your efforts!
Just got this same HPD in red and I love it! Dead right...it's its own animal with quirks that make it unique.
Definitely my favorite garage dwelling Sarah. A turbo in the Ridgeline would be awesome. Get a bit more towing if you had the turbo.
Nice to see some old tech coming back. GM, Ford, Chrysler and other cars had dual action tailgates on their wagons starting with Ford in 1966 that they called “The Magic Doorgate” lmao.
Pretty cool but the clamshell rear gates on the 70s Caprice Estate wagons were my favourite.
Thank You Sarah. Great TRUCK review 👍 Glad you and Fabricobler and friends survived all the floods. Don't play it off, that is real danger.
Great review! I bought that exact same truck in Radiant Red a month ago and I agree with most everything in your review. Spot on.
I didnt get the idea of these trucks until I talked to a friend. If you live in the suburb, dont actually tow anything of significance, these are the vehicles for you. Probably do well with the over-landing crowd that dont really go offroad anywhere, but like fire roads and gravel trails. Honda made the Del Sol years ago, a FWD "sports car". This is essentially that idea in truck form.
yep if your not towing this all the truck 99% of people need
Yeah, I agree. It makes a fantastic daily driver also for someone into trucks that has two vehicles. This and an HD work truck and you’re set!
@@SarahnTuned I have a 2019 RTL-E and use it as a "work truck" and daily driver...wifey has a Yukon XL that we consider our "HD" for the family hauler and when we need to haul the boat. Its a perfect family combo.
Had not even considered a Ridgeline until watching this. Was looking at Tacoma mainly for light duty Truck chores. Well done and a fun review to watch too.
Saeah, another impressive review in your own quirky style. I really enjoyed the underbody segment.......its surprising the amount of interesting information/details you can find there!! From the smile on your face, I'd say this truck surprused you & gave you some fun too!! Keep up the great work. 🤗
This is the truck more F-150 buyers should be driving. They aren't fooling anyone with a 5.5ft. bed in a 1/2 ton truck.
Great review, Sarah. After seeing your review, it's apparent that the Ridgeline is way better than I expected. You've also coined a new term that will come to be known as a Sarah-ism! "Plood." Keep up the great work.
Ive had my HPD for 2 and a half months and I love it! I just wish the “hpd package” actually gave it some off-road upgrades instead of just the bed decal and bronze wheels :/ this is by far the best review I’ve seen! Thanks for reviewing the ridgeline and putting it to the test!(:
Damian..I have a 2019 RTL-E...I replaced tires with Firestone Destination A/Ts , put on a 1.5" Front / .5" rear leveling kit, and 1.5" Bora spacers. Looks & Performs fantastic offroad
IKR, it would be better if they kept all the decals and those godawful wheels and fitted some skid plates and AT3 tires instead.
@@trentatkinson7620 How's it riding now - still great? How about in snow?
It is fantastic in the snow. I trailer Snowmobiles throughout the Adirondack Mountains in Northern NY all winter..no problems whatsoever. The only tiny issue I have is slight rubbing against the wheel well when I turn completely to one side and it only happens in reverse.
@@trentatkinson7620
I had a bit of a scare this weekend. I was at Blackfoot Reservoir in Idaho and I wanted to stop and hike with my daughter a bit. There was a turnoff from the main road that dropped into a camping spot with a firepit. It was dry and sunny, didn't think too much about it. While we were hiking, a freak rainstorm came up and it rained hard for about 15 minutes. Back at the truck, what was no big deal before was now a steep, rutted, and very muddy mess and I was like, "Damn, can we get out of here?" I put the Ridgeline in mud mode and climbed up and out of it without really a problem. If we were in my wife's RAV4, we would've been screwed.
Excellent review. Ridgeline Hybrid will be the perfect Commuter/Homeowner Truck. Thank you Sarah.
Like how you focused on the performance of the vehicle. I’m looking for a mid sized truck but haven’t decided yet. Thanks for the video.
Fun fact this year the hood is made of steel as opposed to the last year was aluminum from the Honda Pilot Stock
That is a fun fact. Thank you
I just bought a 2021 Honda Ridgeline. It’s a nifty truck. It replaced my 2004 Ford Ranger that had 238,000 miles.
Not bad for a Ford ranger…impressive!
Grwat choice my friend
Enjoy the vtec
Another excellent review. And the dancing just adds to your genuine approach to being awesome. Thank you.
Great review! You're my go to for truck reviews these days.
Thank you, Sarah. I've often wondered about real changes that Honda has made to the Ridgeline over the years. Mine is a 2006 and lacks most of the electronic wizardry. I bought it in a rush to replace my F150 which was totaled by a nasty weather event. After 15 years and tons of snow seasoned with tons of salt, the Ridge has proven to be the most reliable truck that I have owned. Now that I am old, I expect that this is the last truck for me. I've done routine maintenance and the A/C needed a recharge last year. That's it. It always starts and it's still comfortable on the road. That's really what trucks are about. I have no interest in replacing it. Now, I will go out and give it the beans... again.
1:13 James May never misses a chance to photo bomb.
Wow, Sarah, this was very cool. I just bought a Ridgeline and I agree with you 100 percent. Thanks for the review. enjoyed it.
An attractive and knowledgeable woman reviewing one of the must underrated vehicles on the road. Thanks Sarah! Glad I found your review 😍I love my Ridgeline
I just loved your face right before you hit the breaks! Spicy breaks! 🌶☘️
I love the subconscious Penguin Wings when you announce the Penguin score. :)
Awesome review of the ridgeline. I like how you drive it off road. Most of the other channels crawl through and have spotters and are afraid to push it. I really like this truck in the black edition.
Thanks for all your honest reviews of various things!
I just recently got interested in the Ridgeline after having had only a 2wd truck for the past 4 years. I don’t need to tow more than the 5k this vehicle is rated for and seeing it perform like it did in the hill in this video really pushes the idea this might be a better choice for what I need.
I put a battery in my 2004 Honda Pilot yesterday, and with only 216,000 miles on it after sitting 5 years, it fired right up after cranking about 15 seconds.
Awesome video Sarah! Honda has stepped up their pick up truck game big time!
Sarah, entertaining and thorough review!
love the sarcasim. love your take on vehicles.
