Re: advice on towing
Re: The Ridgeline, nice looking suv - not a truck. Hence, won't drive as comfortless as the old school trucks. While I don't know it's tow capacity. I'll be kind and give it a 4500# rating. The main issue will be it's wheelbase; as in, the longer the better. (& its on the short side 
) It's unibody (non truck) construction may stiffen her enough to make this a reasonable, all around "I can only afford one car and it has to do it all" - good looking compromise... But be careful 
& somebody confirm it's tow capacity, please

Re: advice on towing
Ridgeline towing capacity is listed at 5,000#. I have found that the Japannese towing capacities are very generous. They must have different needs in Japan.
