ssaamm Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Looking for a new vehicle. Anyone out there own one of these or have any input. I understand it has a 5000 lb towing cap. That should pull my 17 ft crestliner pretty easily I would think. It is a different looking creature. I understand that Hondas run forever, but I have never owned one. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zamboni Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Seen a used one at Fairmont Ford yesterday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solbes Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I know someone at work that has one. He pulls a 3600 lb camper with it. Other than really bad mileage while towing something that heavy, he really likes it. I would think a 17 Crestliner would be easily towed with a Ridgeline. I have owned 3 Honda cars (82 Accord, 91 Civic, and 06 Acura TSX). I've been extremely happy with all of them, with the exception of their resistance to rust for the first two cars.

pinkfloyd4ever Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Just my opinion, but I think those are the ugliest SUVs out there No offense on the choice though, I don't know anything about them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lund028 Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 they are nice, my friend has one. I just do not like the small box/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJH Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Not the prettiest thing in the world but it should get the job done. Doesn't get good mileage like the rest of the Hondas. (15 city/20 Hwy) Good storage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbartguy Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 I own one and I really like the vehicle. I got rid of my SUV and got the Ridgeline because I needed a truck bed to haul Menards stuff, cabin stuff, etc etc. backseat is great for kids and adults, locking trunk is nice, & the ride is great also. On the highway I get around 21 mpg, in town probably around 17. Towing really drops the mileage also. 50k miles and havent done a thing to it except change the oil and rear differential fluid. I give it a thumbs up. Much cheaper than an Avalanche. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJH Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Its cheaper because its a mid size and an Avalache is full size. Its apples to oranges, different class of vehicles.Choose the one that fits your needs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
