Honda Ridgeline began life as an 'Advanced Capabilities Vehicle'

Honda designer Don Herner has revealed that the Ridgeline pickup started out as a project called the 'Advanced Capabilities Vehicle', aimed at matching SUV-like interior space. Unlike traditional body-on-frame trucks, the Ridgeline uses unibody construction. It went on sale for the 2006 model year and remains one of the more unconventional pickups on the market.
