How the Ridgeline Does Well as a Work Truck or Family Vehicle

2017 Honda Ridgeline

When most people think of pickup trucks, they picture a work truck, not a family vehicle. The Honda Ridgeline proves that a pickup can easily do both, functioning as a work truck during the day and your family’s go-to car on the weekends and evenings. In addition to the tough capabilities you want in a pickup, you get a spacious interior, safety features, and other innovative amenities families will love.

The Honda Ridgeline: Ready for Work

It isn’t a stretch to see how the Honda Ridgeline is perfect for your work truck needs. The 3.5-liter V6 engine delivers 280 horsepower and can tow as much as 5,000 pounds. To help with towing, it comes standard with a 7-pin trailer light socket, a pigtail, and a 2-inch receiver trailer hitch. The Ridgeline can also hold 1,584 pounds in the truck bed, a top figure for the segment. The built-in trunk is perfect for storing expensive or fragile gear when going to a jobsite. In addition, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay keep you connected.

How the Ridgeline is Great for Families

Families who have a small boat that they like to use on the weekends will automatically appreciate the Ridgeline’s towing capabilities. However, that’s not all this pickup brings to the table. If your family enjoys having picnics or tailgating, you will love the available speakers in the truck bed and the built-in trunk that is drainable and can be used as a cooler. Those who make safety a priority for their family will feel better with the standard rearview camera, available blind spot information system, Honda LaneWatch, Multi-Angle Rearview Camera, and everything in the Honda Sensing Suite, including the Collision Mitigation Braking System. With the LATCH system set up for all second-row seats, it is also easy to secure your child’s car seat in the Ridgeline.

Whether you want a work truck, a family vehicle, or a little of both, the team at O’Daniel Honda in Omaha, Nebraska, can help you get behind the wheel of your very own Honda Ridgeline.
