yea, the ridgeline starts at $27,700, and 1/2 ton trucks of chevy, ford, and dodge all have roughly 50lb-ft more torque, when looking at the model that is between $27,000 and $27,699, and 4WD. sure, the honda has 20hp over the ford and dodge, but thats really not important...
the ridgeline is also 500lbs lighter then the dodge and chevy, and like 1400lbs lighter then the ford (supercab longbed) at that price point...
