You may be right, but volume on the Ridgeline is so low I’m surprised they have even kept it alive. Their yearly sales is what Ford sells in a week. The Ridgeline and Nissan Titan sell about a 1000 units a month. Ford and GM sell about 50,000 pickups a month.
I suspect Mercedes can do Ridgeline/Titan numbers, not sure it’s profitable at that volume.
The Ridgeline is an oddity for sure.
It’s built upon the same assembly line as the Honda Odyssey and Pilot.
When the supply needs for the Odyssey and Pilot have been met, then Ridgelines are built and the line keeps working...
It’s a terrific vehicle that, thank God, Ito did not destroy prior to his being fired.
