My First Truck, 2017 Honda Ridgeline Black Edition

I bought a new truck!  I traded in the 2013 Prius v for this bad-boy.  



I have owned many vehicles.  And this is my 10th vehicle.

Cars I've owned:
1. 1984 Red Pontiac Fiero
2. 1996 Gold Saturn SL1
3. 2002 Red Nissan Sentra SE-R
4. 1996 Gold Toyota Previa
5. 2006 Red Toyota RAV4 4WD
6. 2012 Red Chevrolet Convertible Camaro V6
7. 2012 White Chevrolet Traverse (Totaled)
8. 2012 Green Dodge Grand Caravan
9. 2013 Black Toyota Prius V Swag Wagon
10. 2017 Honda Ridgeline Black Edition AWD (Current)

Most of my purchases have been very economical, practical cars.  The 2017 Honda Ridgeline is pretty practical and economical (sort of).

I got the Black Edition which is the highest level trim.  It comes with radar-cruise control, lane departure assist, in-bed speakers, a trunk (YES!), Apple / Android Car Play, premium sound system with subwoofer, moon-roof, electronic sliding rear window and parking sensors.

This is the most high tech vehicle I've ever owned and for the price tag of $38,750 (MSRP $43K) it is a really good truck.








The 2017/2018 Honda Ridgeline Black Edition has painted wheels which require a unique lug nut socket to prevent marring of the paint.  Click the link below for the correct size lug nut socket.  A must have item!!!
