Welcome aboard!!! Many manufacturers advise to avoid either sustained high RPM's or steady droning at the same RPM. Exercise the engine - but don't abuse it. Use the 4wd when you need it - plain and simple!
Enjoy!!! |

Al: I'm from CA too, San Jose, Nor Cal? Where are you located?
Enjoy the truck--are you getting 'looks' from people in it? My husband gets at least 1 comment a day when he is driving (positive of course).
Maybe we can get together and have a mini Ridgeline group meet. |

| I just picked up my new Ridgeline a few days ago. A Redrock Pearl RTL with Moonroof. I am absolutely loving it! What an great vehicle. I upgraded from a Jeep Liberty I absolutely hated and driving has once again become a pleasurable experience. If I had one wish it would be for the Satellite Radio to be Sirius instead of XM. I love my Sirius radio but my first impressions of Xm is that it is not too good. Still love the truck anyway. |

| Hey all. Got mine this past Saturday and it's brought back the joy of driving for me after many years of driving and many types of vehicles. Even find myself driving a little slower to prolong the experience. Got the RTL without the moonroof (need the head room and "been there, done that"). Find myself having to answer a lot of questions from curious friends and it often causes heads to turn by curious observers. Just a joy to drive. |

| Welcome and congrats on the Ridgeline purchases! Don't worry, because even after a year of driving it, I still love it as much as the day I bought it. You will too. 8) |

Got mine last wednesday (EX-L) and so far so good! Pulled the trailer with the snowmobiles and also the boat without any problem. Braking system is way more power full than my Pathfinder. First tank, I average 14.96 liters/100km ain't bad considering the fact that it's new and the engine is not broken in yet.
