Car and Driver
Just watching car and driver as they rated some new trucks.
1. Ridgeline (got bad rating for offroad ability, but still won)
2. Nissan Frontier (longest))
3. Toyota Tacoma sr5 (fastest)
4. Ford F150
Im not sure if there were other trucks in there ...I tuned to it at the ford

when it comes to honda it doesn't get any better than there sportscars, but as far as 4x4's go you can't beat a toyota as far as durability and quality of a 4 wheel drive system, handsdown!

Do you really think these ratings scales are worthy? I don't trust Car & Driver or MotorTrend because they accept a lot of advertising money on the products they critique.
I think this particular "truck testing" proves it right here. I'm sorry guys, but the Ridgeline is a huge failure - it is just a matter of time before Honda admits it. No credible automotive expert will put the Ridgeline at the top of any list (maybe the most bought by Gay men truck) unless we're going to see some heavy Honda advertising dollars in the future.
I can site a lawsuit between Consumer Reports and Isuzu back in the late 1980's that lawfully showed a media conforming articles to ad revenue
