| I have one and I love it. I tow with it all the time and never had an issue. The truck rides awesome. I switched from a tahoe and don't miss that thing a bit. Sure it has less torque, but I'm not pulling a big camper I'm pulling a 3800 boat. I live in chicago and have towed my boat with it to canada, vermillion, cable, and all over the place. I wish chevy could build a truck like this (I'm still kinda a die hard chevy guy). I think the design of the chevy went down hill when they started to designing for soccer moms. I have owned 3 tahoes and am not sure I will never go back after driving this truck. The bed design is awesome with good tei downs and molded plastic covering, and having a trunk is awesome too. Having a bed is better for me because with all the home remodleing projects I beat up the inside of the tahoe quiet a bit.
+'s
The navi system spend the money it is worth it
Trunk
It tows perfectly for the weekend hauler ( driving at 65-70 is surprisingly fuel efficient go over that you can notice a remarkable drop in miles per gallon)
The utilitarian interior is perfect for me. Rubber mats that catch mud, and a nice simple clean dash. A throw area for the passengers phone and other crap.
The armrest is one of the best with its endless functionality.
Dual opening for the tail gate , (why couldn't chevy think of that. Especially on the avalanch)
The four wheel drive is 10 times better than my 2004 tahoe, you can't even get the truck squirlly in the mud or snow
Cons
If your not taking your boat fishing the bed is short for musky rods, but you can still fit a 9 footer in the cab
Plastic bumpers
I keep getting my windshield hit by rocks and it cost 450 to replace ouch
When you buy a ridgeline there are only 3 model (base, high end, and high end with nav) everything else is a dealer add on. I spent 3600 in additional things for my truck. ( front and rear chrome, front wind deflector, wheel flares, roof rack, mud flaps, tray for under the rear seat, remote start, blue tooth phone system, running boards, hitch), but after seeing the finished product it was well worth it.
