Honda Ridgeline - Any opinions?

[Eva Greczkowski]

YOU'RE SCREWED !

I had a 2000 Odyssey with Navigation, then a 2003 Acura MDX w/Nav. - then bought a 2004 Prius for my daughters w/Nav. Even though Toyota/Lexus Nav systems are rated a close second to Honda, it wasn't nearly as intuitive as the Honda Nav. Traded the Prius in on an Accord Coupe with Nav.

Every car you get for the rest of your life must have a Honda Navigation system.

BTW - Talked my Dad into an Acura TL and now he won't look at any car without Honda Nav. either (and he's somewhat of a technophobe) - this is the same guy that used to tell me "It may be made in America, but the profits go straight to Tokyo!"

I have to say, you are right! You should have warned us before we bought the damn thing! My next car will be an Acura TL, with NAVI of course!
Damn that Honda!

I have drivin and transported about a half a dozen Ridgelines and I can say that I am impresssed witht he handling, power and the ride. Has a lot going for it and sales are hot.

Sales are anything but hot so far as reported on Honda's website.

Sales are even showing a slight slowdown since March's high of 3,875 units to May's 3,297 units. I smell rebates. At this rate it will be tough to hit their target of 50,000 a year.
