I have enjoyed my 2018 Ridgeline but after 5 years and 60,000 miles was ready to change for a new truck while mine still had pretty good value. The criteria is it has to be a mid size truck with decent amount of interior storage and 4WD or AWD. Rock crawling and "serious" off roading ability is not important, I have SXS's for that. Ride quality, handling, mpg, and comfort are important and I would like to be able to carry at least 1,000# in the bed as well as occasionally be able to pull a trailer up to 3,500#. The current GMC Canyon and Ranger are way dated and I don't care for the new Frontier. The all new Canyon and Ranger are coming out soon but they are well, all new. Long story short I opted for another Ridgeline and ordered a 2023 with beige leather interior to match my dog. By default that meant white exterior.

This 2023 is the same generation as my 2018 but has some improvements/upgrades such as a heavier duty ZF transmission, LED lights, sun roof, power sliding rear window, along with a couple other things and revised front styling. But it is essentially the same truck which for me was a good thing I love the handling, ride, way the rear seats fold up completely out of the way, under bed storage trunk, and 49" wide bed between the wheel wells, and SHAWD all wheel drive system. Payload is 1,500# and towing capacity is 5,000# which is more than enough for my needs.

Anyway I picked it up yesterday and on the way home realized I didn't care for adaptive cruise, engine stop, or auto high beam, fortunately after getting home and reading the 500 page manual I discovered these can be turned off. Anyway the obligatory pics while it's still clean.

Great looking Ridgeline.

Congratulations!

Congrats on the good looking new truck....Looks like the fur baby is waiting to go for a ride and does not want to wait much longer....................................... ......drill sgt.

Very nice! I'm in the market for a new Ridgeline as well.

Thank you guys! Yes you can see why I wanted beige interior.

I think you'll like it Wasabi.

Very nice. Congrats

Thanks Vgex, perfect truck for me.

Ridgelines are super nifty.

Nice score!

Nice! That will probably be my next after the Outback gets a few more miles on it.

It is a very clean looking design. I like that.

Very nice, I always liked the Ridgeline. Cute pup.

Really nice!

Other than being a little too big for me, it is the perfect truck for my lifestyle. I'm not in the market yet for a truck, but when I do, it just needs to be a car most of the time and a truck every now and then - a once a month Home Depot warrior!

Nice NART. When I'm done with my Tundra a Ridgeline will probably replace it.

Nice! Looks like the pup approves!

Nice Ridgeline. We said goodbye to our 2008 Odyssey yesterday with 149k on it and picked up our new to us 2015 Pilot Touring, our 3rd Honda. Always had trouble free service from the first two and really liked the truck like feel of the Gen2 Pilot's. Looking forward to the next generation Pilots due out this year. Of course, we'll own one in about 6 years.

Great choice. My 2008 Ridgeline was probably my favorite car ever.

I'm seriously considering getting another lightly used newer generation Ridgeline in the next 3-5 years, whenever it's time to send my current car down the road.

Sweet truck!

Love it! I bought an 08 new and am still loving mine - same color combo, too. Easy to live with, this is the longest I've ever kept a vehicle but it suits me and in my 15 years and 66k miles I've never had a major problem or been stranded.

66k miles in 15 years?!

So you're the proverbial little old lady who only drives to church and the grocery store once a week.

^^^^^^
That's me - people on house arrest cover more miles than I do
