20 Favorite Technologies in New Trucks and SUVs

18. Honda Ridgeline Bed Speaker

For those who love to tailgate or campout, the Honda Ridgeline bed speaker is one of our favorite technologies in new trucks and SUVs. The dual-action tailgate can swig out or to the side, and it also features a sealed compartment with a drain plug under the cargo bed that can be filled with ice to be used as a cooler. The external speaker system includes six exciters that help turn the entire truck bed into one big speaker. When combined with the 400-watt power inverted that is also fitted to the bed, truck owners can also setup a TV using the bed as the primary speaker setup. The exciters in the bed are not susceptible to water damage or impact, and overall it is a great technology for those who love the outdoors.
