Hi: All... At risk of being shot down...my take on towing with a Ridgeline is lack of wheelbase. The rear axle is to darn close to the back of the cab, at least for a 5th wheel!!!

No sure Raz.... you don't hear a lot about the Ridge towing 5er's. My bet would go on the Holden V8 car/pickup vehicle. All that G8 performance would no doubt shine through even with a small Scamp 5er attached.

Yup, I bet you are right. My Nissan WB is 126". You went to the long bed with a WB of 140" to get the clearance for your Escape. The Ridgeine is only 122". It will be interesting to see what Honda does next. Raz
Another potential issue with the Ridgeline towing a 5th wheel is that it has a large lockable trunk in the bed that would have to be addressed. The spare tire is located in the trunk. I guess the spare could be relocated to the bed.
