			The engine found on all versions of the [[Honda Ridgeline\|Ridgeline]] is a 3.5L 247[[hp]] [[V6]], operated by a standard 5-speed [[automatic transmission]] and [[four wheel drive]]. It accelerates surprisingly well, and it's responsive even at higher speeds. Because it is built off a unibody design, it's more rigid overall than most conventional pickups, which, in conjunction with its all wheel independent suspension, helps in maintaining a tight, solid feel through turns and high speed. In addition, standard vehicle stability control and [[anti-lock brakes]] help to stabilize the ride even more.

	~~[URL=http://freewebtown.com/nicj/buy~~-~~tramadol~~.~~html]tramadol[/URL]~~		The Ridgeline's towing capacity is 5000 lbs, which is less than many of its competitors but still sufficient for most domestic towing needs. While it can handle a bit of off-roading competently, heavy duty driving in rough terrain will likely be undesirable.

			As reported by [http://www.fueleconomy.gov FuelEconomy.gov], the [[Honda Ridgeline\|Ridgeline]] gets 16mpg in the city and 21mpg on the highway. This is the same across all trim levels, as they are all equipped with the same engine and [[four wheel drive]]. [http://www.autos.com/autos/rankings_mpg?cat=trucks&segment=fullsize_trucks&rank=mpg&year=2006 Autos.com] ranks the Ridgeline tied for 5th with the [[Dodge Ram 1500]] in fuel efficiency for the Full-Size Truck category.

			==Safety==
			According to the [http://www.safercar.gov NHTSA], the [[Honda Ridgeline\|Ridgeline]] performed extremely well on safety tests. For all front- and side-impact tests conducted, the Ridgeline received a 5-star rating, and rollover tests earned it 4 of 5 stars. This placed it at the top of the Safety category for Full-Sized Trucks on [http://www.autos.com/autos/rankings_safety?cat=trucks&segment=fullsize_trucks&rank=safety&year=2006 Autos.com].

			Most of the safety features are standard across all trim levels. These include front, side, and side curtain [[airbag]]s with occupancy sensors; side impact door beams; [[anti-lock brakes]] (ABS) with [[Electronic Brake-Force Distribution\|electronic brake-force distribution]] (EBD); vehicle stability assist with traction control; and a tire pressure monitoring system.

			The interior of the [[Honda Ridgeline\|Ridgeline]] is generous with space, particularly up front. This is due, in part, to the fact that, althought its length is a relatively shorter but more maneuverable size, the width remains consistent with that of a full-size truck. This creates plenty of shoulder space for its passengers and allows for a more comfortable seating in the middle rear. Legroom, on the other hand, while plentiful for front passengers, is slightly limited in the rear, like most trucks with a second row.

			Instrumentation is intuitive, for the most part. Guages are conveniently large and easy to read, as is the information display and optional navigation screen. Stereo controls lie flat against the center of the dashboard, which is positioned in such a way as to cause the slightest of reaches in order to access it. In addition, the center console between the front seats is large, making a good storage space for maps or miscellaneous items.

			Some of the standard interior features are power locks, windows, and rear sliding door; cruise control; driver and passenger illuminated mirrors; and 3 12-volt power outlets. Ambient instrument lighting, a leather wrapped steering wheel, and a navigation system are available on the RTL trim, and things like the sophistication of the climate control system and steering wheel mounted controls vary by trim level.

	The [[Honda Ridgeline\|Rigdeline]]'s exterior, when compared to more traditional models from longtime truckmakers such as [[Chevrolet]] or [[Ford]], is downright odd. The Ridgeline's cab melts right into the bed, creating a singular, more solid look. In fact, the rear sliding window that leads from the cabin to the bed is so large, one could easily climb back and forth, if one were so inclined. From some angles, it very much looks like [[Honda]] decided to slap a bed onto the back of an SUV.
