2020 RAM 1500 Reviews Summary

A full redesign for the 2019 model year left a significant bit of tech on the table for the increasingly popular Ram 1500 pickup truck: the EcoDiesel 3.0-litre engine. Ram was once the only option for a half-ton diesel pickup, but emissions certification problems resulted in Ram pulling the diesel engine a few years ago. The engineers at Ram have been hard at work updating it ever since. Although the EcoDiesel wasn’t ready for 2019, it’s now available for any 2020 Ram 1500 trim, so it seems it was well worth the wait. With 80% new parts, the EcoDiesel's improvements to power, efficiency, and delivery all mean that Ram is fighting hard to change minds about North America’s least-loved engine type.

2021 Honda Ridgeline Reviews Summary

Trucks dominate Canadian sales charts in terms of the best-selling models, accounting for a volume of total new vehicle sales hovering around 20%. Nevertheless, this is a segment in which many of the major car companies compete, including Honda. Now, thanks to styling, packaging, and functionality changes, the model year 2021 Honda Ridgeline pickup is poised to attract even more truck buyers. In part, that’s because it now actually looks like a truck.
