Should I buy a Honda Ridgeline?

Should I buy a Honda Ridgeline? I don't do any towing or major hauling of any kind, just want a daily that has 4wd for winter as I am in Canada. I want a reliable vehicle for daily driving, so I was originally looking at used Tacomas, but of course, the prices are way out of my budget, so I'm looking to the Ridgelines now. I'm sure they are quite reliable as they are Hondas, but I just wanted to see what other people had to say about them. Anything to look out for?

Thanks

Personally, I am not a fan of their 9-speed automatic transmission which has had issues in other Honda applications.   This could be a weak point if you keep the truck long term.  Also, the V6 engine has cylinder deactivation which can also be a liability in the long run.

Stay away from the 9 speed. Like @daywalker suggested. Maybe on the 6 speed.
