Used Honda Ridgeline: the years to buy and the years to skip
Every Honda Ridgeline from 2010 to 2025, across 2 generations: what each year typically sells for (about $10,500 to $38,500), its crash rating, and whether it's a year to target or skip. The best bets are 2010–2014, 2018–2025. Look harder at or skip 2017.

A comfortable unibody pickup with a smooth six-cylinder, a lockable in-bed trunk and a dual-action tailgate.

Worth knowing
- 2017: owner complaints spike (339, mostly the engine).
- It is not built for serious off-roading, towing tops out around 5,000 pounds, and the V6 has a timing belt.
The trim we'd park in our garage
Look for the RTL: it adds leather, heated seats and a power rear window over the Sport. Honda Sensing is standard from 2020, and AWD on every trim from 2021.
On the test drive
Look underneath for frame rust, and check the hitch and bed for signs of heavy work use. Get a pre-purchase inspection and a vehicle history report before you buy.
Safety tech
- Automatic emergency braking: standard from 2020, optional from 2017.
- Adaptive cruise control: standard from 2020, optional from 2017.
- Blind-spot monitoring: standard from 2021.

Look for the RTL: it adds leather, heated front seats and a power moonroof over the RT and RTS, and every Ridgeline shares the same V6 and AWD.
On the test drive
Look underneath for frame rust, and check the hitch and bed for signs of heavy work use. Get a pre-purchase inspection and a vehicle history report before you buy.
Safety tech
- Automatic emergency braking: not offered in this generation.
- Adaptive cruise control: not offered in this generation.
- Blind-spot monitoring: not standard in this generation, so check the listing.
