The first generation Honda Ridgeline is a mid-size pickup truck that was sold by Honda from early 2005 (marketed as a 2006 model year) through early 2015, mainly for the North American market. According to automotive journalists, the first generation Ridgeline has some noteworthy design features not found in its competition, including: Dual-action tailgate An in-bed trunk A half-ton (~500 kg) capacity composite bed An all-wheel drive system A fully independent suspension A large cabin for its class According to Honda, the Ridgeline was not designed to steal sales from the more traditional trucks sold in North America, but was developed to "give the 18% of Honda owners who also own pickups a chance to make their garages a Honda-only parking area." According to the author of Driving Honda, the Ridgeline was one of Honda's more profitable vehicles despite its poor sales, with reported sales in over 20 countries.
