Not trying to cause an uproar, as I don't know a thing about the Ridgeline, but what type of chassis is it built on? Being as Honda has never had a truck, is it built on the soccer mom van chassis? (I don't know the name of the Honda mini vans, sorry to any soccer moms out there) I am trying to be serious about this. What engines do the offer? HP/torque numbers?
Last gen was based on the Odyssey platform with a sub frame tacked onto
the monocoque....think El Camino or Ranchero...
I know about Avalanches and I kind of look at the Ridgeline as kind of a little step brother to them. Would that be a correct statement or are the two completely different vehicles?
Kinda sorta...like CUV's. Cross-over Utility Vehicle...derived from car platforms
Avalanche is derived from a Suburban, which used to be derived from
pickups, but don't know about the latest gen Subs
The Honda Pilot is also derived from the Odyssey platform.
Again, not trying to cause an up roar, just trying to learn something about the Hondas.
Here is a link showing it's platform, but no 2017
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, Honda Ridgeline
