    Own a Ridgeline, Maverick or Santa Cruz? Post up!

    Originally sold in South Carolina and shipped up to CT when we bought it in October

    Sure thing! If it has a bed, it qualifies! Event those Dodges based on the K car platform from back in the day.

    2020 Ridgeline Sport. Put a deposit down on it while still on the carrier from the plant. It had 5 miles on it when we took delivery.

    Best $500 commuters ever. Run it until it dies, usually on the side of the road. Sign the title, throw it on the dash and walk away. They’re getting hard to find around here though.

    I believe they got around 50 or more mpg. My diesel mechanic instructor drove a diesel Rabbit. I think he said 54 mpg in his car.

    No picture but when I used to work at the sale barn years ago a fella would haul feeder pigs in with his old 2door car. He had a hog panel cut to length behind his front seats & we would unload thru the trunk.

    This one must trigger the NART haters. Its body on frame, solid axle but its got no divided box and its station wagon based. :rofl: :lol: I had one of the station wagon versions in that same color. Oh if only I hadn't sold it. The value now.
