I have a 2006 Honda Pilot AWD which, I understand, is built on the same
platform as the Ridgeline. I tow my boat to the launch and back once a year
so I don't have experience towing long distances  but it seems to have no
difficulty pulling the boat up a launch ramp and handling the boat on the
highway. The towing capacity of the vehicle with the tow package - including
a transmission and radiator cooler - is 5000 lbs.

Bill,
What year is your Ridgeline?  Roger indicated they were redesigned at some
point.  Engine size?  4WD or AWD?  Thanks - rob

I towed my Rhodes 22 with my Ridgeline from Maine to Florida and back twice
in the last two years with no problem. I just sold the truck recently
because I decided to leave the boat in Maine for the time being, but I would
recommend the Ridgeline. It is like a car on the inside but strong on the
outside and rated, I believe, at 5,000 pounds towing. If money is no object,
I would recommend getting the Honda tonneau cover and the model with the AC
outlets in the truck bed. Great standard features are the large lockable
trunk under the truck bed and the gate that opens both down and sidewise
like a door.
