Wow, what a derailed thread.
And what a thread full of ignorance about the Ridgeline. I love the comparisons to the F-150 you Ford Shills. Why are you afraid to compare it to Ford's real competitors? The Sport Trac, or Ranger.
Base Ridgeline to the Base 4x4 Sport Trac.
Sport Trac is a couple grand more expensive.
The sport Trac gets even worse mileage.
The Sport Trac is way down on hp.
The Sport Trac is longer, taller, yet the bed is even shorter than the Ridge and the passenger space is way down below the Ridgeline.
The Sport Trac has a lower payload.
The Sport Trac is rated to tow a whopping 80 more pounds, but there is a caveat.
- Truck makers rate maximum towing with zero passengers, and zero payload in the vehicle
- Ridgeline tow rating is 5000 -plus passenger - plus 150 of luggage
Ford tried to copy the in-bed huge trunk on the Ridgeline, but the Sport trac's version will barely hold a six pack.
The list goes on.
