Honda Ridgeline hauling ATVs

When you’re on a South Texas worksite and you’re loading concrete bags, lumber, and power tools before the heat sets in, you need a truck that’s as ready to work as you are. The 2026 Honda Ridgeline delivers 5,000 lbs of towing capacity and up to 1,583 lbs of payload to handle demanding workdays. Clark Knapp Honda serves drivers who need truck capability with Honda reliability; here’s how the new Honda Ridgeline does just that.

Built-In Towing Strength

When equipped with the Class III trailer hitch and seven-pin connector, the Honda Ridgeline is ready to tow equipment trailers or landscape materials from day one. Its 3.5-liter V6 engine generates 280 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque through a nine-speed automatic transmission. Standard all-wheel drive distributes power where needed, maintaining traction on gravel roads or uneven jobsites.

Payload Capacity for Daily Demands

With payload ratings up to 1,583 lbs depending on trim, this pickup handles bulk material deliveries with confidence. The 64-inch bed offers 33.9 cubic feet of cargo space, with 50 inches between the wheel wells — that’s enough to lay four-foot plywood sheets flat without angling them.

The composite bed material resists dents and scratches without additional liners, standing up to daily tool use. Eight tie-down cleats rated at a combined 350 pounds provide secure anchor points throughout the bed.

Smart Storage Solutions

This pickup includes Honda’s lockable In-Bed Trunk®, offering 7.3 cubic feet of weather-protected storage beneath the bed floor for valuable tools. The dual-action tailgate drops down traditionally or swings out sideways, making it easier to load awkward materials.
