Every truck buyer has an opinion about this truck before they read a single review. This 2026 Honda Ridgeline Review is for those who are still willing to be surprised. Starting at $40,150, the Ridgeline is the only unibody pickup in the American market, and that single fact either ends the conversation or opens it, depending on what kind of truck buyer you are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the buyer who needs to tow a bass boat, carry landscaping materials, haul camping gear, and still commute daily without feeling like they are driving a construction vehicle, the Ridgeline makes a case no body-on-frame midsize competitor can fully match. Five thousand pounds of towing. Up to 1,583 pounds of payload. A lockable in-bed trunk that holds 7.3 cubic feet of gear under the bed floor. A V6 that returns 24 mpg highway. And a ride quality that makes a 200-mile round trip feel like a car rather than a compromise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What it is not: a truck for buyers who need to tow more than 5,000 pounds, who regularly work a vehicle hard off-road, or who need maximum payload for serious commercial hauling. This review is honest about both sides.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
