When I drove to Yosemite for memorial day RUG was around $4.20 per gallon. Everystation I saw on the way up had diesel at $4.99.
 
If you use the hybrid system that GM offers on the suburban, then the Ridgeline could benefit. But then again, the Toyota Hylander benefits from a more conventional hybrid system.
 
The Ridgeline is a cross truck that is used for passenger hauling and light hauling. I say light hauling because the tow rating isn't very high and the bed is small compared to most "trucks". I say leave the diesel powered truck to the F350 - the big trucks that really need all that low end torque. For me, and I'm guessing the majority of Ridgeline owners/prospective buyers, they would favor fuel economy over low end torque.

What is a "cross truck"?

it's designed to do more (or less depending on how you look at it) than just a truck.
 
It's trying to fill a niche between the truck and the SUV market.

Here are some photos of the new 2009 Ridgeline. Some of the changes include a "Pilot" type grill, daytime running lamps, fog lights, integrated trailer hitch, rear back-up camera, redesigned wheels.

doesn't look like much of a change
purely cosmetic
the lines on the truck seem to be the same
 
Is the '09 supposed to be a remodel year for the Ridgeline?

Not a remodel year, just a midmodel makeover. The real makeover will not come until the 2011 model year, so in late 2010. A couple of years away.
 
The larger wheels are nice and the back-up camera. The fogs are a good addition. Supposedly the instrument cluster is changed but no pics as of yet.

I made a mistake in the previous post. Should have stated the full makeover will come in July 2011 as a 2012 model RL.
 
Thanks, Brad

Golly, sorry about that post. I didn't realize the pics didn't work! Can a HOST help me out and delete it for me?
