From the rounded roads of the Rocky Mountains to the endless paths of the plains and the unpredictable streets of the East Coast, more and more Canadians need a strong pickup truck. Thankfully, Honda has delivered a vehicle worthy of Canadians from ocean to ocean, the Honda Ridgeline. Although the Honda Ridgeline is the only pickup currently available in the Honda lineup, the Japanese automobile company has recognized the need for trucks in North America and has kept the Honda Ridgeline available after a temporary hiatus in 2015. Regardless, the two generations of the vehicle each won the North American Car of the Year Award in their debut model years.
The first-generation Honda Ridgeline
The original Honda Ridgeline debuted for the 2006 model year after development started in 2001. Surprisingly, the pickup only utilized around 7% of original Honda components. The vehicle acted as an extended version of the Acura MDX, with the pickup bed added to the rear of the SUV. Although the truck took advantage of the finetuned powertrain of the Acura MDX, it was extensively calibrated and strengthened for stronger capabilities.
The second-generation Honda Ridgeline
Described as the Swiss army knife of trucks, it is worth finding a used Honda Ridgeline for sale. The second-generation model impressed enthusiasts as much as the original when the new model premiered for the 2017 model year. Built upon the company’s global light truck platform, the newer Honda Ridgeline shares many components with the Honda Pilot mid-size crossover. Subsequently, Honda boasts that the upgraded model was beefed up from its predecessor thanks to a new subframe and structural design.
