🔸🔸🔸🔸 2023 Honda Ridgeline Sport - Do You Get The RIGHT Features For $48,769? Find Out 👉 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/e8iAf7x8ztiyfqc.html 🔸🔸🔸🔸

I owned a 2019 Chevy Silverado 5.3L V8 and traded it for 2023 Ridgeline RTL-E with 4k miles on it ($42,217). So far, Ridgeline blow my mind. So comfortable, quiet and smooth ride, like driving some luxury car, but with all pickup truck features. Honda's all wheel drive is a miracle, no need to switch between modes and can get you thru all situations. LOVE IT!.

The ridgeline has the most interior space than any other midsize. That basically won me over.

I build the frontier, I can tell you the frame and suspension is built like a tank.

The Ridgeline looks like the winner to me!!!

Ridgeline wins hands down. It excels exactly where you would use the vehicle 98% of the time.

Purchased a 21 Frontier Midnight 4x2. Awesome truck. Had no issues through 2 years. Traded for a 20 Ridgeline AWD RTL-E. I’ve always wanted a Ridgeline and was finally able to get one. I’ve loved the Ridgeline since it debuted. But that doesn’t take away from the Frontier. It was awesome.

I have both. Ridegline is better all rounder. It has awd for nasty weather like in the PNW. Much more practical as it has the trunk in thr bed and drives much more like a cuv. The only thing frontier has its off road capability over the ridgeline. If you dont ever plan going offroad than the Ridgeline is the better truck. The ridgeline does everything better than the frontier except offroad.

i own a 21 honda ridgeline with 31k miles and have driven to northern idaho from so calif many times. Im really picky but cant find anything to complain about. Ive gotten as high as 27 mpg on my trips. The way the back seats fold up gives almost a flat floor and with a couple furniture pads from harbor freight my dog is a happy camper. Id buy another one tomorrow if something happened to this one

Both a great pick up but i personally like nissan frontier because of it's look .

Both trucks are excellent. I leased the 2022 Frontier for two years, experiencing a few issues. With a family of four, I eventually switched to the Honda Ridgeline, which perfectly suits m needs. It's become my go-to "dad caravan."

Ridgeline for me. Both are cool trucks 👏👏👏

You do a real fine job in your presentation. Thank You

I was comparing these two trucks and every other midsize truck the last two weeks. I like the way the Nissan looks, but in the end chose the Ridgeline RTLE. Has every interior feature most $70,000 trucks do and is the most comfortable truck/vehicle I’ve ever been in. I build houses for a living and honestly a ridgeline does everything I need it to do. I don’t tow or off road but watching other videos, the ridgeline is capable enough to do both. The ridgeline is the perfect combo for what I need. Sure I’d like it to be more aggressive looking but in the end I wanted comfort.

I personally looked at both, Ended up with a 2020 Black Edition, But to be fair I didn't test drive the Nissan, I have three other Honda's, So I go for Quality, I know the Ridgeline has a 9 speed ZF Transmission but I'm ok with that, Also wanted it for camping, The Ridgeline just does that Better, Unless you're going up some insane mountain trail, I don't plan on doing in the first place. Personally believe the Ridgeline will hold up better in the long run.

I read a comment from a Frontier owner who said he had to buy a new alternator because the original one got sand all in it because it's mounted on the bottom of the engine.

Great review minus one thing… you completely skipped the fact that the Ridgeline has MUCH more second row space. There barely a comparison. Adults can comfortably sit in the back seat of a Ridgeline. However, the Frontier is best suited for kids… without a car seat.

Currently researching. Think ridgeline for me. Sell my 15 accord and new 23 F150. Basically combining both of those into one vehicle. Cheaper to insure just 1 car.

I bought a 2023 Ridgeline RTL. Love the ride and the extra room it has over the Frontier or Tacoma. The bed trunk is just icing on the cake. Its all the truck I need

I own a 2023 Pro 4x and love it.

I see you never bothered to get into that backseat of the Frontier...😂

I have a 2023 Ridgeline, owned it for 4 months. The MPG I'm getting is 26.5, and that's after sometimes having to commute 60 miles a day for work. So far, only problem I've seen on a KZfaq video is with the deep compartment in the bed of the truck possibly not opening. Mine hasn't done this, yet, or never I hope.

Both are nice trucks (yes, the RL is a truck)! Both are on my short list for buying at the end of 2024. On paper, particularly payload, the RL wins. I prefer the looks of the Frontier, particularly the Pro4X (but subpar payload). Ummm, I would choose the RL if I had to pick today.

ridgeline is a family suv with a bed, which is exactly what I needed. I wouldn't do any trucky stuff without proper modification, such as offroading, heavy towing etc

Going to be seriously shopping for a mid sizer later in the year. I really do like the Ridgeline, good interior space, (presumably) good reliability, and a solid AWD system. The deal breaker for me is the lack of a 6ft bed as I use my trucks for work pretty regularly. Leaves me between the Frontier and the Tacoma. I've had 3 Toyotas in the past and loved all of them, but the 'Tacoma tax' will probably push me to the Nissan. But I will give both it and the Tacoma an honest shot before I purchase. Nicely done video 👍

I own a 2018 ridgeline and it tows my 3800 pound twenty foot trailer with virtually no strain. It handles snow very well with its torque vectoring and rides like a suv. The only way I would trade in my ridgeline is if honda came out with a bigger engine. It is not worth the trade off in ride to go with a standard truck ( I have owned several). I don’t off road soo…

Also 0-60 times have been recorded with these 2 pickups. The ridgline is a full second faster, not sure where you get the nissan is faster bologna.

You can put a sheet of plywood in the ridgeline with the tailgate open so that makes it the only pickup in the comparison lol

When sitting in the driver's seat, did you find one sat higher than the other?

Ridgeline 79 inches wide Frontier 73 inches wide Frontier for towing Ridgeline for hauling stuff like 4 by 8 sheets Frontier no telescoping steering wheel Both are good looking trucks!

2024 Pro 4X. Love it.

Ridgeline is the best especially the black edition

How is the interior noise between the two? In my experience, Honda vehicles, in general, have noisy interiors relative to others in their class, with road noise a big contributor.

Honda wins big with Build quality & reliability too. Frontier can only tow an extra 1000lbs when you get the biggest package, so you get beat to death bouncing down the road daily driving to possibly tow 6000lbs instead of 5000lbs.... Not a good trade off imo

Good Video. Thanks. Honda Ridgeline is getting the nod over a Toyota Tacoma for me, but I'm retired and not going to do any more serious towing or building. Comfort, the Ridgelines strongest selling point, has become a desirable thing these days and although the Ridgeline is not a traditional truck it can handle the everyday chores that an older gentleman might need to do. Nissan Frontier is a decent truck and does not have that horrible Nissan CVT transmission, but still over all does it not last as long as the aforementioned two, so it's a no-go.

Frontier much better looking with better power specs , Ridgeline has more interior room better ride I have driven both, and Ridgeline needs a major update to complete in the mid-size truck sales arena UPDATED 2024 Ridgeline Black edition has ventilated front seats and rear A/C vents and power folding mirrors, and more interior room This beats out Frontier, I will be ordering one this spring. Thanks for the help in my decision !!

Still looking, these are my current top 2 options, both with V6. Hmm...

I like how the frontier looks more like a pickup inside and out but the fact you can't have a flat floor for storage and no rear ac vents sucks. Room in the back of the Ridgeline is better with a flat floor and seats that actually fold up right and its bed is just better all around.

Hands down the Honda ridgeline, ride is the main reason. How many urban cowboys use there truck like in a dodge commercial.

I prefer Unibody trucks for mid-sized. Better quality ride by far! Never going back to body on frame.

I’ve owned the 2023 Ridgeline for 7 weeks 1300 miles. I went from a 2008 GMC Sierra SLE Crew Cab 5.3 RWD with 17” wheels that produced a car like ride. People were amazed how smooth. The same goes for the Ridgeline but I’m definitely not used to the lack of torque having owned GM V8’s for 40 yrs. The Ridgeline supposedly tows 5k lbs & my bass boat rigged with trailer is 3500. The little engine screams when going up inclines but does ok flat areas. I allow for plenty of space on ramps. After seeing the Frontier’s dash, I’d take it over the Ridgeline & like the Frontier shifter much better especially if anything is spilled. Ridgeline cup holders are next to push button transmission console. Oops design. Don’t like the radio in the Ridgeline either…no SiriusXM. Yeah I can use my ph but….and if GMC hadn’t doubled in price for the same truck I bought in May 2009, I’d be in another GMC. Who knows, maybe even a Frontier. In short I left the big city dealers & selected one 50 miles away that was 6k less for same vehicle.

I bought the 22 pro4x and thus truck is 💯 % better than the Ridgeline. In the trails had to pull out a taco and Ridgeline out of a ditch. My frontier no problems all day!!!

Frontier all day.

Looks go to frontier Design and needs for most people goes to Ridgeline . Ridgeline still has that van look

i like the frontier color

I know you are limited by vehicle availability, but this is a top Pro4x trim of the Frontier vs a lower trim of Ridgeline. A more applicable comparison would be the Ridgeline Black Edition. I just traded a 2023 Pro4x for a 2024 Black Edition so this comparison is very fresh in my mind. Personally, I found the Pro4x to be unrefined and uncomfortable. The driver's seating position was limited, lacking telescoping steering wheel and height adjustment, which is inexcusable for 45k. Not to mention the buggy infotainment system. I'm also getting older and I don't use my trucks as aggressively off road as I use to, so the Pro4x was far more capability than I needed. On the other hand, the Ridgeline is FAR more refined and feels much better built and is more comfortable on my 2 hr daily commute. You also said the fuel economy was the same, which is false. My Pro4x avged 20.5 mpg in mostly highway driving (after break-in), while my Rdigeline is avging 24mpg in the exact same driving, and it's not even fully broken in yet so that will continue to improve. Rael world fuel economy rarely matches the EPA rating. Both of these trucks are absurdly overpriced but, overall, I'm very happy with my decision to switch to the unibody Ridgeline. It's a solid truck that I'm sure will give me many trouble free years of enjoyment.

Ridgeline. It has the power side folding mirrors, ventilated seats and different bed configs compared to the Frontier.

How was the back seat room in the Frontier? I have a 2 seat Frontier now but need a truck with a rear seat.

Personally I would go with the Ridgeline

4:02 Look at the size difference! Fronty sure is small! Back seat 90° angle and tight. Low payload, tiny box. All hat, no cattle?

Both are great trucks! Natural Aspirated V6 Engines.

Ridgeline you can put back facing car set in it.

I like the looks of the Nissan vs the Honda. Doesn’t the Nissan have a CD player?

Ridgeline all day. Way more cab space, better economy, tows 5k way better ( I've tried both), night at day ride quality in favor of Honda, trunk, way higher payload. It's seriously underrated by guys that aren't comfortable with their manhood.

I have a 2018 Black Edition Ridgeline. It needed new injectors at 39k and a new torque converter at 110k and you have to change the rear diff oil every 20k miles and the transmission fluid every 30k miles. The torque converter was a 5k expense. Luckily for me Honda covered half of it. I’m fanatical about maintenance so I never expected this. I think given the maintenance and questionable transmission I’m going Nissan next time. BTW I also have a 1998 Tacoma 4x4 that I bought new. The engine was rebuilt at 538k and I still use it. The new Tacos aren’t as durable as the old ones from what I’ve seen. The thought of buying a new one with a turbo 4 doesn’t appeal to me.

Both have different advantages. The Frontier is better for off road and towing…and is better looking I think.

The Ridgeline looks huge next to the Frontier

It is sad that the only midsized trucks worth buying are Japanese. The big 3 between them can't build q single quality product.

Owned my frontier pro4x for 2 years now and its a solid truck. No issues what so ever. I can also confirm 100% that the frontier feels like a truck (because it is) compare to the ridgeline.

these are just the 2 models i'm currently considering. as someone who wants to buy the truck i want, maintain it, and drive it for the next 15-20 years, several pros/cons to each for my purposes: ridgeline pros: on road driving character, comfortable ride, honda proven reliability, j-series engine, 4 inches wider making for a more spacious interior and bed space, in bed trunk, better payload, great awd system that should have every capability i'll ever need cons: more expensive, needs an update, no full size spare, fwd bias, looks kind of blah, not great ground clearance, push button gear selector and e-brake(blech), honda cars in shortage meaning not much negotiability frontier pros: looks great, lower cost for equivalent set of features, better clearance, more capable off-road and towing which don't mean much to me, preference for rwd vehicles with option for 4wd when needed, better supply so you can likely get a better deal cons: uncertain about longterm drivetrain reliability, don't like nissan as a brand but previous trucks were solid(and maybe hasn't changed all that much with current gen), rougher ride on road, rear seat space not good, bed space lacking on crew cab short bed models, i'll also take a look at the updated ranger and tacoma when they are out. not a big fan of small displacement turbos though. their current gens are no-gos for me. also considering 4runner or used gx460 or mdx/rdx.

Traded in my Tacoma for a Ridgeline. Way more smoother.

For someone who needs a multi-role sedan that's capable of playing the part of a mid size pickup, the Honda stands alone at the top of the heap. The Honda checks most of the boxes. The Nissan is catching up.

Great comparison even though they're completely different style trucks for different uses & needs... but nonetheless, THANK you @VehicleVisionary I currently own a Frontier, great truck, but the Ridgeline is my dream truck, so that's what I'll be going to asap. I also don't doubt that I'll be very happy. 😉👌 It doesn't matter that some feel the Ridgeline isn't a truck....well, it's "truck" enough for me. I think that's a slight issue for some consumers that 1, don't do enough or any research....or 2, aren't really car people so they simply don't know or understand. One of my personal factors when looking for/purchasing a vehicle is... get what YOU need/want, and not what other people think you should have. Consumers: do your research. If a specific midsized or even full sized truck isn't for you, simply don't buy it, don't bash it....just move on, the truck segment is LOADED with choices. 😉👌

Frontier 4pro x all day

When could Nissan compare with honda on anything

The new frontier has more hp but slow 0 to 60 and has a lot of problems

I went to see these today,not test drive, just a look and already the Frontier, though I thought it was really cool and manly and all, the back seats are more straight up backing than colorado, or ridgeline or maverick. It's a deal breaker already, because if you do want the truck for family or friends to sit there for a longer trip over an hour, it's not good. Its more like seats of an ext. cab, than a crew cab seating. Someone Stupid designed that. Also, the bed doesn't seem to have any clever ways to support 4x8 sheets of anykind. colorado has slots to put 2x6 or 2x8 to level up with the wheel wells the 4x8 sheet will sit and new one has semi-down position for also support of the sheets with the wheel well or close enough to it. The maverick has tailgate also mid-position to line up with wheel wells for this reason as well. I don't see any in frontier and you'll be forced to have something with you to lay down on the bed so the sheets don't belly down. Ridgeline, I believe is 48" between, so you're good already. The pro x4 by my own measurement only has 8.5" ground clearance and it's suppose to be the off-road version ??? Frontier is off my shopping list.. down to Ridgeline, Tacoma or Maverick.. oh, Colorado is off due to the Stupid ONLY electronic dash and infotainment system and important buttons are part of those screens and not manual buttons.. Stupid gm who thought of that idea. Good chance if go NEW, I'll go with the Maverick. if go 3-4 years used, I'll go with colorado, ranger or ridgeline, depending on how the ridgelines awd system works. need more homework.. for me, light duty project use, so don't need large truck or bed. don't want 10" clearance either..

Slow speed steering in the Frontier had a stiffer feel. Might make parallel parking more difficult for some drivers.

That’s a Honda pilot to me

I think the frontier is all around a better truck but if you stay on the pavement ridgeline is better

Ridegline drives/rides like a car but is a pickup

The frame is not on the body.

I love the looks of the frontier except for that stupid looking bed ! It looks out of kilter

Frontier is more hp, more torque. If you're just scooting around town by groceries and running errands, then the Ridgeline is your car. If you need to tow and go off road , then the frontier is your truck.

*body on frame

Nissan!!

A bit to long to get too the drive

I owned a 2012 Nissan armada. Biggest POS I’ve ever owned. Worse than a Chevy quality. I’ll stick to Honda or Toyota

Simple, you want a sedan with a bed, or do you want a truck ?

Frontier, by a long shot.

TBH There isn’t a best , because both fill certain needs . I do think the Ridgeline is more of a Female truck tho.

The ridgeline is an suv, not a truck.

Ridgeline isn't a truck. 🤦🏻

Can't get a 6' bed with the Honda. Major minus point. Also, I preferred the more traditional controls of the Frontier.
