From motoralley.com (posts newspaper ads from dealers around the country ) several have had RTs for 21-22000. This is about $3800 under invoice.
 
There appears to be $2000 in hidden dealer cash out there if not more. Perhaps agressive buying (like getting 10 bids from dealers like our previous post) will reveal it. It appears gas prices have helped reduce the demnand for lotsa vehicles like this and maybe left masochists like us an opportunity.
 
No previous year on this in Kelly Blue book so the depreciation of this model is ???
 
Look forward to posts of other peoples results in aggressive buying.
 
Also-- anyone have any experience with the price and utility of the hard Tonneau cover from Honda?

Ridgeline needs to fade by brewerk12

Motortrends only mistake was giving the Ridgeline truck of the year. It is underopowered and gets same gas mileage as an F-150. The EPA mileage dosen't account for regular driving conditions. The ride quality is not as good as the Nissan Titan. The suspension is poor. It can't bear a load, let alone tow as much as the competition. Honda should stick to economy cars.

That is false information. The Ridgeline is not under powered. Consumer Reports also states, "Better than adequate go, thanks in part to smooth, responsive transmission. Ridgeline on par with rival compact pickups with V6s - but behind Dodge Dakota with its available V8. V6 may also be taxed when asked to meet Ridgeline's 5000 IB towing capacity, or 1550 IB payload."
 
The suspension is not "poor." It is independent and absorbs bumps quite well, and handles like a car.
 
One thing people have to remember - THE RIDGELINE IS NOT A F-150 or F-250! It's design is for families who don't need the extra power, and ruggedness of the F series! For people who want a little extra ruggedness, and simply want a truck. But it's not for serious heavy duty off roading.
 
The quality of the Ridgeline is EXCELLENT. Consumers Reports, and edmunds says so too.

You should spend more time driving your GT 500 or your Frontier or your Sequoia or your Volvo then quoting magazines!Glad to see you're bashing Ridgelines instead of Tacomas.Gotta love that Fronty!

A national newspaper is looking to interview consumers who have decided to hold on to their current pickup truck, rather than purchasing a new one. Please send an e-mail to ctalatiedmunds.com no later than Wednesday, August 9, 2006 by 2:30 PM PT/5:30 PM ET containing your daytime contact information and what pickup truck you currently own.
