There should be more color options than that. I will look into this. Are you configuring the base model?

Yeah, that is a bummer. That’s the one thing I hate about this truck, it has all the options are on high end models.

There’s very few times where “lol” is actually true but I did laugh out loud at this. However, I know I will not be purchasing the Ridgeline because my favourite colour is “Pearl Graphite”, or if that’s not available, “Carbon Smoke”.

...

Or, you know, blue is nice, too.

I hate to admit it, but I really like this truck. Spacious and almost economical.

Went and looked at one today. Its a nice looking vehicle in person. Rear legroom is excellent compared to the GM twins and the Taco

Towing kit $125

“skid plate” $575

Honda sure has the balls to offer something that is just going to be thin stamped steel or slightly less thin stamped aluminum screwed onto a plastic bumper and provide strawgrass levels of skid protection for nearly $600.

Dang - you get a lot even on the base truck. That’s actually a pretty good deal. It is weird they are only offered in two colors, (plus the “Black” edition.)

At the bottom of “Build and Price” is the list of options. I configured mine!

The base model only offers two colors, all other models have more choices in color.

I agree, saw a truck hauling them today and thought to myself “wow, that is pretty handsome”

I actually saw one on the road today going to work. Had to do a double take. (The driver was in normal business attire to so probably a better truck choice for him). Looks good in person on the road.

We have alot of ridgelines in the area actually too.

And I’m guessing like a Tacoma or a Tundra, you could probably drive it to the moon and back (480,000 miles) with a major service or two and regular oil changes. And tires and brakes and bulbs.

What are you, stupid? They’re asking if you want silver-silver or also-silver-silver. Such options!

I wish I spent more time poking around. I really wanted to test drive one but didn’t want to waste the salesman’s time.

That is without a doubt the most boring configurator I have ever clicked on.

I saw one at the local dealership this morning, didn't remember to take a closer look on the way home. If I was in the market for a new new vehicle the Ridgeline would for sure be on the list though.

DOES IT SERIOUSLY ONLY COME IN GRAY, AND SLIGHTLY DARKER GRAY. WHAT THE EFFING EFF? Seriously man. I mean really? If I remember right this was the case with the the old one too. I think they only came in black, white, and silver. Mean while every other truck is available in more colors than most cars.

I saw that and said out loud, “Way to live up to your boring ass stereotype Honda.”

As long as you’re not going to tow anything bigger than a pop up camper, the Ridgeline is a perfect suburban home owner truck. The low tow rating keeps in from being an option for me.

Yeah. Sometimes I wish the Fast anD Furious persepetion of Honda I grew up with was closer to true. If it was, there would be a Fit Si, a CRZ that wasn’t a hybrid, they’d still have an S2000, and the Ridgeline would come in every color they offer on the Fit. That trunk would look really good in bright red with a black grille and black wheels. Oh yeah I just remembered the old on came in Dark Cherry Metallic a kinda of redish purple.

Yeah, there’s a dark red Ridgeline in my neighborhood, it’s nice. That really nice electric blue they offer on the Fit, would look great on the Ridgeline. Why do all the econoboxes get the cool colors?

The color variety is weird, all models besides the base RT have more color options. I specified my truck as an RTS model, and got it in Obsidian Blue Pearl! I doesn’t show the different rims I put on it, though.

Oh I see. I didn't even notice the trim selection. I guess it makes since to only have a few colors on the base model. What I don't get is why they only allow some interior color options with each color. Like to get tan leather you can't have the green, with green you get gray leather, but with the red you have the option of grey or tan.

Another commenter noted that there is other color options on the other trims. RTS has a white, red, and blue and RTL also has a green option.

I saw that, but couldn’t figure out how to change the trim on mobile. It’s good that there are other colors, but dumb that you can’t get them on the base model.

I didn’t notice that. That’s strange, it follows Honda’s line of thinking though.
