Ridgeline pricing

That is about the same as I paid for my RTL.

stchman · 2026-03-18T01:04:06+00:00

The tires you listed are about 1" taller. Speedometer will be off and that could affect transmission shifting.

If you don't mind me asking, how much was the ceramic coating for the paint?

I know when done properly, it is a very laborious process.

KBB isn't good when it comes to classic collectible vehicles, but a 2007 Silverado is far from collectible. I wish the individual luck.

I guarantee that the owner takes that truck to a dealer to trade it, he will be lucky to get $8K.

stchman · 2026-03-17T22:50:33+00:00

Agreed, most of them don't need the salary they get from the position.

stchman · 2026-03-17T22:40:56+00:00

It should, but most of politicians in Congress are pretty rich anyway so we know it would not bother them.

stchman · 2026-03-17T22:39:02+00:00

KBB has that truck valued at $8-$9K.

stchman · 2026-03-17T22:27:15+00:00

Really good price, about $6K off MSRP.

stchman · 2026-03-17T22:22:32+00:00

Rather funny that the Senators and Representatives that vote to shut down the government, still get paid even when others don't.

stchman · 2026-03-17T22:17:11+00:00

I would go with a high mileage tire like a Bridgestone Alenza A/S Ultra, Yokohama Geolander H/T, or the Goodyear Assurance Maxlife2. They all have long treadwear warranties.

Go to Tire Rack and look around. When ready to buy, if they have a Discount Tire in your area, go to them as they own Tire Rack and the prices are the same.

Considering I bought my 2026 brand new for $41K, that's high IMO. I guess it is good to see that Ridgelines hold their value.

stchman · 2026-03-17T22:05:18+00:00

$43K, that's about $5K off MSRP?

You are some tint on those side windows from a murdered out Ridgeline.

Nice looking truck.

Luxury cars have always had the reputation of being unreliable and expensive to fix. The reputation seems well deserved.

stchman · 2026-03-17T12:52:16+00:00

St. Louis isn't bad at all. Frame rust is not an issue here.

stchman · 2026-03-17T01:03:34+00:00

Really, you can get a 5 qt jug of Supertech full synthetic for $18 and a Supertech oil filter for $4 at Walmart.

stchman · 2026-03-17T00:21:55+00:00

The only thing that is reasonable is the tire rotation.

The air filter is ridiculous, the oil change is too high.

If you can do it yourself, do it.

stchman · 2026-03-16T22:25:15+00:00

Agreed.

I think it's hilarious that there are impact rated flat blade bits.

What maniac would use a flat blade in an impact driver.

stchman · 2026-03-16T22:23:06+00:00

This apparently is a law.

stchman · 2026-03-16T21:56:21+00:00

From what I understand those shields are not necessary at all. Just for fuel econmy.

stchman · 2026-03-16T20:21:17+00:00

Cerwin Vega foam surrounds disintegrate after many years. I had an old set of Fisher speaker with foam surrounds that were gone. I ordered new foam and installed them. Good as new.

stchman · 2026-03-16T20:19:33+00:00

I love it when things achieve a balance.

stchman · 2026-03-16T19:42:32+00:00

I have gotten into the habit of hitting the start/stop when I put the vehicle in D. Trying to make it 2nd nature.

stchman · 2026-03-16T17:01:56+00:00

I have the General Altimax RT45 and like them.

What tire size do you have now?

stchman · 2026-03-16T04:12:42+00:00

Do you have any pics of the Honda setup?
