I honestly thought the Ridgeline would be done by now. The only reason they sell is they say Honda on the back IMO. A mostly full time 4wd, only available in automatic, "big" truck that doesn't have a full frame, nor rear wheel drive, so towing is not really it's thing. And the box is tiny. I get that they are a truck for people that will never use them as one, but Honda could have done a lot better with them. I'd like to see an Element based small pickup rather than this dog. Too bad they killed the Element in 2009.
