  • At 3:05 thts rediculous tht Honda can't make it up tht hill

  • i admit, i'm kinda impressed with the toyota fj's. and i'm a ford fan.

  • Do us all a favor. Take that ridgeline, and drive it off the top floor of a parking deck into a burning pit. Thanks.

  • It's called, locked differential.

  • Can't really judge the Pilot unless off road tires are used. Those fancy rims don't help the situation much either. Post more vids please! If the car fails with decent off road tires, then those car review guys were paid to make this car sound good!

  • i didnt know honda made an accord truck..

  • It's not the ridglines problem, it's the tires, they have no meat compared to the fj

  • @rexdlu The 4WD in the Ridgeline is horrible. Its FWD until the rear slips then the truck feeds power to the rear as needed. Not nearly as good for this type of stuff as full-time 4WD. Plus, the FWD biased Ridgeline has a transversely mounted engine with different drivetrain angles left and right. It was not made for this. Tires do make up 90% of your traction, but if you take a FWD biased truck with no full-time 4WD to the mud and dirt you're going to have trouble no matter what tires you use.

  • @PlatinumRacing Educate yourself, then speak. The VTM system doesn't wait for a slip, it provides power to the rear wheels immediately when accelerating. Furthermore it has a lock that can be used in 1st and 2nd much like a 4 lo. Stupid people who don't know their own vehicle don't know when or how to use the VTM-4 lock and when to turn VSA off.

  • @kabdoesntwantachanne So in 1st and 2nd gear the driver can selectively lock the 4WD with a 50-50% torque split, correct? So you tell me to educate myself then you go and compare THAT to 4-wheel-low? Have you ever driven a truck? Not a Pilot or a Ridgeline, I mean a fucking truck. I don't mind that its Japanese (I love Japanese), I don't mind that its unibody (Their torsional stiffness is superior), but I can't stand that Honda had the balls to make a "Truck" with a transversely mounted engine.

  • @PlatinumRacing

    God forbid they actually make a decent little truck that rides nice. How dare they try such dastardly and absurd things. Don't they know you are supposed to leave your truck with back pain every day. lol Hater.

  • @cg95660 I get why it was made, but I'm never going to like it. I just dislike people who think their 3.4L Ridgeline is a true pickup truck. They think it can tow, they think it can bog, they think it can do everything an actual truck can do. Truth is, this thing has more in common with an AWD Toyota Matrix than it does with an Explorer Sportrac or Chevy Avalanche. Not only that, but this mid-2000's "Truck" has a towing capacity that equals that of my VG33 powered Pathfinder from 1997. Sad.

  • @PlatinumRacing

    I understand what you are getting at trust me I used to have a kick ass mudder, an old 78 f100. It does have a small tow capacity, but to compare it to a nissan is dumb. The nissan gets 12 mpg and makes 160 hp that to me is beyond horrid and I am a datsun freak. The ridgeline is hondas first attempt at making a truck and its based on the odyssey. This will do what almost all hondas are known for, I have owned 3, be reliable and safe. My last car 03 si, saved my life.

  • @cg95660

    Not to mention that the american brands just do not hold up. They are getting better, but still have a long way to go, in my mind, before they truly compete with the imports well deserved names. With that said if I had to buy a more off road capable truck it would be a toyota hands down, but for a little less wheeler and a little more daily livability this is better.

  • @cg95660 Finally we see eye to eye. That said the Ridgeline in the video is (In my opinion) out of its league trying to drive around (Mild) off-road conditions. And a side note on the Pathfinder: it gets 16 MPG (Woo) and 200 lb/ft of torque at 2,800 with 90% torque at 1,500 RPM. Something Honda forgets is that HP isn't everything. Torque, and where it hits on the RPM band, is what moves a vehicle. I like my Pathy but its extremely unreliable. Within the next month I'm buying an 05-06 Subaru LGT.

  • Ridgeline = wanna be truck/ wanna be suv. but it's neither. I call it trash! =)

  • @98TacomaOwner And its unibody, thats blasphemy.

  • @Dilong26 LMAO

  • Ridgeline = POS

  • v-tec didn't kick in yo

  • @benbowcott nobody cares

  • honda aint doin to well

  • HERP DERP DERP

  • the fj sounded like shit but performed well. the ridge line needs better more aggresive tires on smaller rims so the tire can have more sidewall to help flex

  • i love FJ bt i dnt have the money so ill buy computer :)

  • at 0:56 i was like "dude your fucked no matter what now, lol. just sit the play some music and let the fj pull you out

  • The sport has the same engine as them all. I have a 2007 and have had no issues, the only thing would be tires and also pushing the '4 wheel lock' button.

  • Comment removed

  • The ridgeline only sucked cause it wasn't the sport edition, it had street tires, and Front wheel drive.

  • Annoying ass fucking motorcycle

  • الظاهر انت الي مثقل على السياره يادب

  • i use to have a ridgeline and let me tell ya, that lil truck went thru alot more shit off road than i was expecting.. i went every weekend to different spots in jersey n that truck was running circles around some lifted off roaders...

  • hey iam kinda new to my nEW FJ CRUISER AND THERE IS one THING THAT I DONT UNDER stand LIKE WHats is the( a-trac) button

  • @redbull9679 The A-Trac button is just a form of TRAC (traction control) but is only used in 4lo. From my understanding, it uses the brakes to slow down the tire with no traction and sends the power to a tire with more traction.

  • a lot a losers say honda is not good offroad

    but i think they are retards

    cos the honfa didnt have offroad tires

    idiots!!!

  • I like the FJ and the Ridgeline :)

  • is the honda a front wheel drive or all wheel drive???

  • @ilikeeverythingable nevermind!

  • @ilikeeverythingable FWD on everyday streets until it detects slippage, then it engages 4WD. Or you can just press a button to have 4WD all the time.

  • LOL i guess vtec doesnt work off road XD

  • the honda would do better if he had offroad tire's which he doesnt

  • o|||||o

    

  • @MrLale85

    amen

  • @MrLale85 old school toyota :)

  • @MrLale85 thats how ya do it

  • weels not for off-road!

  • Ridgeline VTEC didn't kicked in yo

  • @SubaruWRXtreme i can't tell whether thats a joke or not?

  • @benbowcott

    I'm actually mocking all the Honda fanboys saying that shit on EVERY Honda video

  • @SubaruWRXtreme Cool story, bro!

  • @SubaruWRXtreme Just noticed your username having Subaru in it.. makes this ten times effin' funnier, jackass rofl.

  • ridgeline needs better tires

  • lol ridgeline hahahahaha who the fuck buys that !!!

  • What size rims are on the ridgeline!

  • I'm glad for these clips, cause then I don't have to get my own car dirty :P

  • jeep is slow onr road but its kinda good offroad but i like fj more its fast on and off road

  • @DevalleeTheGreat bitch fj is better then jeep cuz jeep cant pull hummer but fj can heres the video name

    fj cruiser vs. hummer

  • @aaabball415

    so ur saying ToYOta is an offroad vehicle??

  • @sayeedrehan some of emm like tundra its a pickup and fj is the suv

  • hah, take those shitty asian toys out of the mud.... should've bought an american...

  • @zaw1112 you know what i may be american but i have an fj40 and an fj62 it has 200,000 miles on it and when we got it, it had stock shocks that didnt even work the engine ran like shit they almost never changed the brakes and all it needed was a little maintenance and it was good to go my uncle had a jeep he broke an axle within the first week and then he blew the engine it had 50,000 miles on it you dont know enough about vehicles to tell me what to buy

  • I want to see how you tow the Ridgeline out of that puddle

  • ridgline is beautiful

  • is not adapted off road is city suv

  • i desire everything in this vid... even the kawasakis!! xD

  • Nice wheeling, just left a video response. Keep up the good videos!!!!

  • Your honda sounds like shit for one. is deffinetly NOT an offroading vehicle for two and three you dont even know what your doing.

  • first off hondas aint for offroadin, second off and Jeep, Chevy, and or Ford can easily smoke those trucks, plus you guys talk about rock crawlin and muddin, hell ive been in steeper and deeper spots then those

  • gówno umiejący amerykanie

  • toyota FJs BLOW!!!

  • put better rims and tires on the honda lol

  • honda would do a lot better if it didn't have those gay rims and tires.... fj is plain out awesome!

  • @CrashJSTest I know really. But, knowing Toyota's ability to ruin all of its good models currently, lets hope the dont ruin that in the upcoming redesign!

  • @CrashJSTest Hahaha, the way I said that made it sound that way. lol. I love the Tacoma to death. I dont like the Frontier so I called it the Nissan Fail, and it just sounded like I called both fails, didnt it! I hate the ranger and GM small trucks. Toyota has always been the best and will always be the best!!

  • @CrashJSTest Not only should not be on the trail, it shouldnt be made period. I mean, it starts at like 29,000 dollars and is WAY outsold by its competitors, the Toyota Tacoma and Nissan fail.

  • @aaabball415 I don't think that you should judge it to hard, to me it looks like road tyres... And, Toyota has just always been the better offroader.. ;0)

  • The fj seemed to take it in her stride..... not bad at all.

  • why buy a honda truck??? let alone buy it for off roading?

  • if you had an american truck maybe you woulda been better off

  • Give the honda some grippier tires and it might not embarrass itself as bad

  • That honda sucks, but that's the best one i've seen that hasn't been ricer-ized

  • Honda Ridgeline ?? HMM thats just lame !!!

  • the honda's tires is not for of road!

  • @nunu13001 the hondas not for off road!its not even a real truck!!

  • that ridgeline is sick looking

  • 83offroader you are suck not jeep. you just hating on toyota.

  • wow fjs suck off road. I thought they would be better but they suck. I guess Japs dont know how to make a vehicle to go off road like America with their Jeep.

  • @83offroader You're hypothesizing this all from a video on the internet sitting on your chair? Really smart bud.

  • I have an FJ. That honda doesnt suck... the owner is just an idiot and has stupid after-market rims with street tires on his ridge line. His tires were caked with mud and slipping on a barely sloped surface. The guy with the THAT fj was lucky cause normal FJ comes with highway dueler tires which suck, but that FJ is the TT ( trails team ) and came with BF Goodrich KO All-Terrian tires.

  • yes the honda does suck but either way the driver is an idiot too...give it some gas puss bag

  • That 4wd drive system in weird man!

  • The honda needs off rode tiers.

  • yeah... if you even had a locker to be turned on... it was on.. your front wheels are turning the same speed as the rear at 0:26

  • @BetYaWontTruthOrDare even without a locker your front tires will turn the same speed as the rear and if they didnt you would have major problems like braking a axle.

  • 4LO, in an FJ? I thought the ridgeline and FJ had the same type of AWD system. I allways thought the fj was built on the highlander platfourm with the transaxle AWD system. Do the newer highlanders have 4LO now too?

  • lol 1:30 it sounds like the FJ is making the dirt bike noise!

  • Is that texan four wheeling? Pretty week.

  • doesnt the ridgeline not have low 4wd?

  • ya all that ridgeline needs is some more agressive tires!... i say BfG's km2's

  • The tires and driver suck on the ridgeline

  • That Ridgeline is sad.

  • where is this?

  • Can someone that owns an offroader post a reply to this comment? I'll be checking your posted videos to see if you're legit or if you live in ur moms basement. I wanna know why do offroaders go up small hills slowly? Isnt it better to go up at a higher speed to give it that momentum? That way your wheels dont slide from low friction.

  • @strapinhotpockets depends on the hill, and your way of driving! if you can go slow, why go fast? its fun to go slow to see how your tyres goes, the lockers... etc, but there are hills that you have to go fast, especialy when its muddy. one more thing, too much speed also comes with more parts breaking, and more of a risk to something goes wrong. :) hope i helped.

  • ridgelines are so stupid

  • Am i the only one to think the Honda is ugly as hell?

  • Lol, this is fail. I live in Australia and the 'New" Fj Cruiser has just come out about 2 months ago...... I said a video dating back 2006 with this car.

  • lol i know where this is. just lookin around at vids on you tube and this vid popped up, houston right? and cool vid

  • Hey "Damnedboner", why don't you get your fkn "boner" out of your own sphincter, or better yet your mouth and stop dribbling fecal matter out if it in droves and wake up to the real world dickhole-closet faggot. Lemme guess, either you drive a make believe "Range Rover" or some pretend vehicle or your ass drives a "chevy or a for" and since your "pappy" told you that was best IT IS! Get out if Arkansas and experience the "real world" son!

  • honda bullshit its only good for the paved roads... toyota its wayyyyyyyyy better all the way

  • toyota suvs can do wonders..

  • whats that Honda doing out there, and i love that color on the fj.

  • 2:08 ouchhh

  • Why would you do this to a ridgeline? Its a luxury vehicle!

  • Cool video man, I like FJ's, they are pretty sick.

  • "Toyota FJ Cruiser and Ridgeline are not offroad cars" Then get off your fat lazy asses and MAKE it one retards.

  • A ridgeline is not a truck

  • @CodyNS07 no, its more of an SUV with a bed.

  • madddd fourby rims and tyres on the ute man we all know why it performs so good

  • dont mean to rude. but that honda sucks.  honda is not an off road vehicle.

  • @aaabball415 the honda could do better with better tires, still not great offroader but would do better with a tire upgrade

  • @aaabball415 I don't think it was designed for this kind of off-roading either. Probably don't have the hardware for it and uses one of them electronic ones

  • see kids? bigger rims don't make you a better driver

  • ohh, jack black has an fj.

  • not to be rude or anything but how much do you think your fj costs as it sits???

  • Nice video! Cool trucks check out the video of my truck

  • have fun cleanning the Ridgeline. that video was cool though

  • the video says goofing around again. instead of posting hateful stuff JUST MOVE ON!!!

  • better bring an Xterra in case your stuck

    Ridgeline is the dumbest  truck ever

  • better bring an Xterra in case your  stuck

  • you both need to get some real trucks and stop jacking around!!!!!!

  • I can't even believe some of these comments against the Ridgeline. Its a nice truck. The truck can tow the average camper and trailer, with 5,000lb towing capacity and Honda never intended it to do what the full size line of trucks can do. It looks nice and runs nice, hauls the family and room for most store runs at that. Stop and think, it isn't a full size. The FJ is sweet too. Keep having fun guys. That's what its all about anyway.

  • Nice vehicles. Both of them.

  • whats the specific color name of that FJ i like that off white look

  • LEARN TO DRIVE

  • I got an fj just like this one, same color with rear locker but my discovery is way better off roading !!! Fj are very capable!!

  • u folls should get a ford raptor svt...

  • the honda is a great truck but this tires sucks!

  • these are not off road cars

  • @sequ23 the fj is

  • FJ looks perfect, nice work man!

  • @headonastick

    nothing

  • "hey man we are gonna go four wheeling what kinda truck you got?" "A Honda Ridgeline." "...oh... I guess you can just ride with me in my 4runner"

    LMFAO ridgelines are so shitty. Im lovin that FJ though! Keep wheeling man soon youll be able to do shit you never thought possoble just with driving skills

  • honda ridg line shouldn't travel far from gravel roads

  • and the toyota would have done better if it wasn't hauling 900lbs

  • honda ridgeline is a piece of shit

  • ahhhh thats cute!

  • the car ned i driver

  • Hi guys, try to fight against the Lada Niva 4x4. That's а real OFFroad car.

  • fj guy can't drive and the honda lol well its a honda stick to the streets thats where you belong!

  • fj cruiser is fuckin sick! and look at that dumbass on the dirt bike with no helmet.

  • yall need to take that honda and throw it off a cliff and let the coyotes sleep in it

  • Do the Honad have rear diff lock or slip difrential?? if none of the above then Toyota will pull (help) Honda for sure...don't buy front wheel and using 4wd NOT GOOD ENUFF

  • can't listen to engine of FJ...why not move the motorcycle away??

  • front WS vs Rear WD...good bye HONDA

  • so damn ugly car this FJ ....

    Jeep XJ is mutch nicer

  • @CaduSmith Do you really care how nice a 4x4 looks? I mean, no one uses them to go shopping, do they? Check out the Kraz! ;-)

  • Its just because he has street tires

  • one name...Land Rover...job done.

  • Honda ridge line really. Stupidest truck ever made.

  • veeeeeelmi tazke nohy maju pani....treba prist do evropy sa naucit jazdit v terene...

    auta velmi dobre ale zli soferi.....ale mame ruku von z okna ta sme frajeri....

  • veeeeeelmi tazke nohy maju pani....treba prist do evropy sa naucit jazdit v terene...

  • Why does that FJ sound like a weed trimmer. lol. And the Honda.. really? Would help to have good tires.

  • Nice looking FJ! I like the stock steel rim's retro look. I think it suits to the FJ

  • What is the general opinion on the fj cruiser? I need a new car once I get out of bootcamp

  • Sweet offroading videos! Mind checking my fj videos out? If you like them please freind me and subscribe! Thanks for your time.

  • thats some weak stuff

  • @MrTheSweetT21

    THIS NIGGA RIGHT.

  • do the bumper ends just pop off? Bolted or what. Would be nice to remove for trails.

  • @lcacwelder they are held on by clips...think I had to take the front bumper off to get the ends off.

  • NEVER thought I say/type this but that ridgeline looks pretty nice.

  • i think the ridge line could've done better with a difference wheel/tire set up.
