| When you have a towning package added to your Ridgeline in 06' what all was included with that package? |

| The reason I'm asking the question is because a dealer is telling me that in 06 all the towing package consisted of is the wireing harness to the back of the bed. Every other truck manufacturer that I know of that has a towning package includes at the very least wiring and class III hitch. I think the sales person is feeding me a steam pile load. |

| Mine included wiring harness with 7 and 4 pin connectors, receiver hitch, drawbar and ball, and hitch pin. I think that is standard. |

If you are getting that load from a dealer, go to a different dealer. He is trying to charge you twice for the equipment. My towing package included the draw bar, hitch, ball, AND the 7-and-4 pin connectors right next to the draw bar. All of it was installed. However, you will not get an electric brake controller, you have to buy that separately if you need one.
By the way, the heavy duty cooling is standard, not extra like on the Pilot. Don't let them charge you for that, either. |

BTW, here it is from the Honda website:
Tow up to 5,000 pounds without additional coolers
Towing Package includes:
Class III trailer hitch
Trailer hitch harness with both 4- and 7-pin connectors included
Key-locking hitch pin
Either a 1-7/8" or a 2" hitch ball
Locking hitch pin helps provide an extra measure of security
7-pin connector allows use of electric trailer brakes and trailer charging system. (These systems require additional parts. Refer to your Owners Manual.)
Components included in the Towing Package are available separately
Installation costs not included.

This is where I got my wiring harness and installed it myself. A no brainer.

I'm impressed. SS hitch balls are hard to get in Canada. You delivered one to my post office box in Canada for a reasonable cost in just over a week! Great service from beginning to end. I would definitely order from etrailer again.
