The test drive went pretty excellent even if I was only allowed to drive it on surface roads & the freeway. If you are use to driving an american p/u truck like I am, driving this thing is no way like it. I feels more like a car (a heavy car) than a truck or maybe like the Honda Pilot. You still feel the bulk but it's a lot smoother & quieter than my Chevy 1500, then again my Chevy has Headers, Catback & lowered suspension. It has a very comfortable feeling & you can easily like the way it drives & handles . Power is adequate but I do think it could use more since the truck is very heavy for a Honda. Would I buy one? NO! Not for me since I do haul bulky stuff & the truck bed on the Ridgeline is kinda on the small side. The wife likes it since it a lot bigger than her CRV then I told her about the price & the mileage you get , she backed off. Overall, this truck will be a contender from all the other trucks out there. I has a lot of things that I think most people would want on a vehicle.
