=== CLEVER, CAPABLE, REFINED, OFF-LEASE, GENUINE TRUCK-BED INGENUITY! === The Honda Ridgeline set out to solve the one thing traditional pickups have never been good at -- ride comfort -- and this 2020 Ridgeline RTL is a well-kept example of that approach, with 94,557 miles and a documented history of 14 service records behind it. Returning to us off-lease, this Ridgeline has clearly been maintained on a consistent schedule rather than left to chance. Rather than the traditional body-on-frame layout most trucks still use, the Ridgeline builds on a unibody platform shared with Honda's SUV lineup, trading a truck-like ride for genuine car-like comfort and handling without giving up the bed, tailgate, and towing capability buyers actually use a pickup for. === Why Shoppers Buy This Model === Shoppers choose the Ridgeline because it approaches truck ownership differently: a quiet, comfortable, car-like ride from its unibody construction, a lockable In-Bed Trunk with 7.3 cubic feet of weatherproof storage beneath the bed floor, and a Dual-Action Tailgate that swings open like a door or drops flat like a conventional truck, features no traditional body-on-frame competitor offers. It's the pickup for buyers who haul gear on weekends but don't want to feel like they're driving a work truck the other five days of the week. That everyday-usability focus is backed by Honda's long-standing reputation for durability, giving Ridgeline owners genuine confidence the truck will keep running strong well past six figures on the odometer. === Warranty === At 94,557 miles and just over six years removed from its original in-service date of 05/16/2020, this Ridgeline's Basic, Powertrain, and Rust Perforation warranties have all run their course. One factory-backed protection is still quietly active and transferable, however: Honda's Seat Belt Limited Warranty. * Seat Belt Limited Warranty -- 15 years / 150,000 miles from original in-service date, covering the seat belt system and its components With roughly eight and a half years and about 55,000 miles still remaining on this supplemental coverage, it's a modest but genuine factory-backed benefit for this Ridgeline's next owner, even though the primary-propulsion coverage has already run its course. An extended service plan is available for buyers who want factory-style protection going forward. === Standard Features === RTL trim brings genuine upscale touches to this Ridgeline: a leather-trimmed interior with a 10-way power driver's seat with power lumbar support, a 4-way power front passenger seat, and heated front seats. A one-touch power moonroof with tilt, a power sliding rear window, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, an acoustic windshield for a quieter cabin, and RTL-exclusive 18-inch machine-finished alloy wheels round out a trim built to feel genuinely upscale rather than merely equipped. === Truck Capability === This Ridgeline is a 2WD model, built on Honda's unibody platform rather than a traditional body-on-frame chassis, rated to tow up to 3,500 lbs -- a genuinely useful figure for a boat, small trailer, or a pair of jet skis, even if it trails the available AWD Ridgeline's 5,000-lb rating. Payload capacity checks in at 1,452 lbs, plenty for a full bed of mulch, tools, or weekend gear. The 64-inch composite bed extends to 83 inches with the Dual-Action Tailgate lowered flat, and the lockable, weatherproof In-Bed Trunk adds 7.3 cubic feet of theft- and weather-protected storage beneath the bed floor -- genuinely useful for stowing valuables, tools, or a cooler out of sight and out of the elements. === Mechanical Features === This Ridgeline is powered by Honda's 3.5-liter V6, producing 280 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission featuring paddle shifters for a bit of driver control when it's wanted. EPA-estimated fuel economy checks in at 19 mpg city, 26 mpg highway, and 22 mpg combined -- genuinely competitive numbers for a V
