I think the Ridgeline will do well...it'll be that compromise vehicle when the wife wants an SUV and the husband wants the truck...good mileage, well designed Honda interior and reliability...enough power to tow the jetskis...and that cooler in the back...
One of the reasons I don't have a new truck yet is because my 94' Acura Legend Coupe won't die and is still a pleasure to drive. It has 185K miles on it...no brake judder yet either
I'm looking at the possibility of taking the seats out of my Acura and installing them on my new Titan when I purchase it...
Personally I wouldn't purchase a Ridgeline. I may be able to live with the V6 since I wouldn't tow much but that 5' bed is just too small(The 5.5' bed on the Titan is already a compromise). They should've gone without the Avalanch angle things too and made it capable of adding some type of overhead rack by including stake holes on the rails.
