Honda Ridgeline

My 4x4 truck is a 2008 Honda Ridgeline. Honda always have a great resale value so when I’m ready for a new Ridgeline I will get the best deal out there for my trade-in. The truck also had better gas mileage than other 4x4 vehicles and a full-size rear seating area.

My Honda Ridgeline is loaded with everything possible. In addition to the automatic four-wheel drive, the Ridgeline has power, leather, heated seats, 6 CD disc changer, sliding rear window, and GPS. It also came equipped with XM satellite radio with a three-month subscription. The traction control is just one of the safety features included in the vehicle. Side curtain airbags are part of the six airbags that come standard in the Honda truck.

But the one single thing that sold me on the Honda Ridgeline was the full-size, lockable trunk hidden in the bed of the truck. I never have to worry about leaving cargo to rattle around in the open bed. I can put all my sports equipment, groceries, or mall purchases in there without exposing them to the weather.

Some of the many things I use my truck for include hauling mulch, moving my kids into and out of the dorms every year, carrying lumber for the new deck, and getting around in the Colorado snow.

Running boards and a roof rack are on my wish list for my Honda Ridgeline. Running boards will be very useful for getting in and out of the truck as it has a pretty high profile and a roof rack is a necessity for hauling skis and snowboards not to mention the cargo basket we use for our camping gear. Another thing I would like to add to my Honda Ridgeline is an auxiliary unit to play my Ipod while in my truck.
