So the wife and I previously talked about our trailer trips getting a little "harder" each year. So we just completed a 1,700 mile three week trip a week ago. We got back-and put the travel trailer up for sale-priced for the present economy and it sold within hours. The wife has bad knees (looking to get them replaced) and is having a hard time climbing in/out of the Silverado. So-after selling the travel trailer we just didn't need the capabilities of the Silverado. The Ridgeline is very popular among Seniors for step in height and ride quality-while still having a truck bed. So got rid of the 2023 Silverado-and purchased a brand new 2026 Honda Ridgeline Black Edition-hopefully the last vehicle I purchase.View attachment 349464View attachment 349465View attachment 349466
Congrats! You should get many years of dependable service out of your Ridgeline. I was very close to buying one last week myself. Ended up with a new Tacoma. Hopefully I made the right choice….
Pulled the trigger on a new 2026 Tacoma SR5. This will be my daily driver and the first Toyota I’ve owned. I’ll be sure to post my thoughts as I put some miles on it. Amsoil Signature Series will be my weapon of choice for the life of the vehicle.
About 10 years ago my grandparents did the same thing, the travel trailer and driving with it just became too difficult to be enjoyable for them. They have a RAV4 now and drive that on much shorter road trips.
Nice choice on the Ridgeline, they are great trucks. Definitely one of the best driving trucks since they drive like the Pilot.
