This attempt at a pickup truck by Honda proved to be extremely painful for me. The truck is known as the Honda Ridgeline. Or Back Breaker as I refer to it. My dad's girlfriend at the time purchased one of these before we went on vacation to South Carolina. I was stuck in the backseat. I didn't call shotgun in time. The backseats are jumpseats in this vehicle. That means they just fold down and have no support from the bottom. After the drive I was certain that two of my vertebrae had fused and moved sideways. It was cramped in the backseat and I had no legroom at all. It was torture.
However, the car actually did have a few positives. For only a five foot long pickup bed it was actually quite spacious for luggage. The car also had a lockable in-bed trunk compartment. It runs almost the whole length of the bed and you can fit double the amount of stuff into it.
The rest of the truck also isn't nearly as bad as the backseat. For having only a four cylinder motor it had a surprising amount of pep. I still would choose a Ford or a Chevy truck of course.
