Honda Ridgeline - The Last 2000s Xtreme VTEC Truck

This week I'm driving a Honda Ridgeline, the last VTEC weird 2000s lifestyle vehicle left. I know, it's not a truck. It's a Honda Pilot with a bed! it's blasphemy!....or is it kind of a great vehicle? I actually really enjoyed my time with the strange experiment that's been out for 20+ years. The Honda Ridgeline provides excellent comfort, efficiency, fun, payload and a driving experience that you won't find anywhere else. Oh, and it has VTEC. What's not to like?! The Tacoma has useless backseats, good thing it does because you and your fat ass wife will already exceed the sub 1k payload. The frontier is ancient. The ranger, canyon and colorado all have turbo engines with horrible fuel economy, terrible sound and questionable reliability at best. The Ridgeline is cool, just accept it! 00:00 - Intro, Interior/Bed/Under Hood 08:14 - Driving Impressions VTEC + Charm 16:00 - Highway Impressions, Bad Safety Tech 24:52 - MPG Update 28:08 - Final MPG + Closing Thoughts #honda #ridgeline #truck #trucks #midsize #toyota #tacoma #nissan #frontier #4wd #4x4 #colorado #canyon #chevrolet #review #2000s #oldschool #vtec #v6 #intake
