I have a 2008 Honda Ridgeline. 235,000 miles. Its be very reliable and still going strong. Only basic repairs have been done. I live in New York , near Buffalo. I know you are familiar with the area. Rust is starting and it's my every day driver. 250 mile a week for work per week.
PS. One thing I have neglected was changing the transmission fluid. My bad. Still shifting fine. Rust and age is my worry.
Does the well-made rust will probably do it in when the frame starts rusting and the strut mount start coming apart Time to say goodbye
Thanks for replying. rust is just starting. some small holes in body. Unibody seems to be holding up ok. Really the motor as been bullet proof. I can't say enough about the Honda. It has been the best, reliable vehicle I have owned. It is running and shifting fine. I have always change the motor oil every 3 to 4 thousand miles. I have never changed the transmission fluid. The ride and handling is not what it once was. That is understandable.
What are your thought of the Honda ridgeline. The 2008 I have as been good. No codes in all that time. Gas cap lose once. that doesn't count.
Unfortunately, Scotty does not respond back to follow up questions within the same thread. You may want to post a new thread question about the 2008 Ridgeline to get more visibility and answers.
IMHO, the Honda Ridgeline, is an unsung hero in trucks. It kinda flies under the radar of other makes, because others have made trucks for so much longer. But Honda engineers/designers thought the Ridgeline out extremely well.
I myself have a 1999 Honda Accord with 272K+ miles. And with basic maintenance it is still running strong. A testament to Honda quality and longevity.
