It's not that you don't have enough power. The factory tow package usually, besides the hitch, includes better engine cooling, and a larger transmission cooler. Without the tow package, you may be exceeding the tow rating of your Ridgeline. It probably won't be a problem on fairly level terrain but trips to the mountains will probably cause problems. Check with your Honda dealer.
