The 2010 Honda Ridgeline's styling isn't widely loved or appreciated on the outside, but some people warm up to the functionality of the interior. Honda made a number of small changes to the Ridgeline's styling last year, but the truck's overall look remains the same. Overall...

Other Choices:

The 2010 Honda Ridgeline is more refined and sophisticated than anything else this size with a pickup bed. And its body style is very different than anything else, which makes it tough to pick out direct rivals as they range through compact and mid-size trucks, most of which have more traditional layouts with burly frames and unforgiving leaf-spring rear suspensions. To its credit, the 2010 Ridgeline comes with all that's necessary to tow or haul its heaviest rated loads, and for any rivals that'll mean extra boxes to check. The Explorer Sport Trac is the closest in concept to the Ridgeline; it has a shorter bed, but there's an optional V-8 that outdoes the Ridgeline, at least for low-speed hauling. Even though the design is dated, it's still quite attractive. The Nissan Frontier and nearly identical Suzuki Equator are also possibilities; they're both especially rugged in look and feel and come in a variety of trims, including focused off-road models. Another possibility is the Dodge Dakota, but the Dakota doesn't ride or handle well. The Toyota Tacoma is probably the best choice for frugal shoppers, thanks to its strong resale value, as well as decent performance and fuel economy with the standard 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine.

    5,000 pound towing capacity is pretty good for a the size. I would have liked to see better gas mileage, but overall - I'd consider it for our family.
