    Definitely the ridgeline for me. The most I do is go kayaking and take garbage to the dump. But the most important thing for me is that naturally aspirated v6 engine.

    Best ridgeline review i have seen. I will subscribe. I just got my 2024 trailsport and i love it. Its the right price, and 90 pecent of americans dont haul over 5,000 pound on a daily basis or need to go rock climbing on the weekend. This is the perfect truck for someone who needs a bed to do stuff but also wants a comfortable ride. If you need a real work horse then you shouldnt be looking at a midsize truck in my opinion. My only zonk is i wish they lifted the trailsport by 1in

    • @ramjam4618
      @ramjam4618 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      @@tl2135 It's the HRG lift kit. 1.5" spacer in the front and 1" in the back. Kit is $350 and my mechanic charged around $700 to install. Tires are 265/60/18 (HANKOOK DYNAPRO AT2 XTREME) which are 1" larger than the stock tires which gives me .5" of clearance by itself. Looks really good with the lift and beefier tires. I can't say enough good things about the tires as well. They're amazing in the snow and ice and so quiet for an all-terrain!

    I was trying to decide between the Honda Ridgeline and Toyota Tacoma and for me the Honda Ridgeline is the most practical truck for my needs. So now I’m picking up my 2024 Honda Ridgeline Trailsport on Thursday.

    Both the Tacoma and Ridgeline are exceptional examples of the mid-size truck market. Great review! BTW, I really appreciate you pointing out the real world payload differences between most Ridgelines and most Tacomas. Most Ridgelines will have better payload than most Tacomas. Given that many trucks will run out of payload before they run out of tow capacity, I think the Ridgeline may be a better option for me to tow our 2,900 lb camper and all of our camping gear in the bed and rear seat area. Thanks!

      Depending on what you need it for. Ridgeline beats Tacoma in just about every category. Maybe with exception of off road capability?

    Ridgeline Black Edition is the best value in mid-size trucks.

    • @MattTheCarguy
      @MattTheCarguy  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I like the Trailsport myself but Black edition is nice as well.

  • @Guzzzr
    @Guzzzr 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Black Edition should include ACC with stop and go, 360cam or at least a front trail cam, center front parking sensors, passenger seat height adjustment, hill descent control... hopefully when they redo the ridgeline they include these.. also it should have over 8 inches of ground clearance and the cargo bed should be at least 20 inches deep...and get us another inch or two in rear seat leg room. all this would make the Ridgeline a perfect vehicle.

  • @deanvoss7098
    @deanvoss7098 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Each truck has its own demographic that they go for and that buy them..
    I looked at the Toyota Tacoma and the back seat was not as comfortable or roomy and the truck was not as comfortable while driving it.. and I don't care about climbing over boulders or driving through 4 ft deep mud pits. 90% of these people that buy the look at me trucks never use them for what they were designed like going off-road or whatever they just drive them to work... Honda Ridgeline all the way standard V6 rides better and all-wheel drive
