After the recent facelift, local dealers can’t keep the Ridgeline in stock. It’s a decent looking truck. Bonus that you can get factory roof rails and crossbars so that a basket or box can be easily mounted over the cab.
I looked into deleting the cylinder deactivation. Doing so voids the warranty. Seems like trading one risk for another. Like I mentioned above, the Honda Accord I have with the same engine design and an older version of the cylinder deactivation software (one that had noted problems compared to recent versions) has no issue.
Local to me (Boston area), the Ridgeline holds its value well.
New RL has the 9 speed.
I like roof rails. Very useful. Lots of,RL’S in stock here. It’s f150 and Tacoma country.
Does the deactivation mod void warranty? Again, internet? Lots of people do mods that in theory void warranty.
Just unhook the mod thingie when it goes for warranty work?
There were 3. Versions of deactivations. I’d like to think they improve on them.
Hondas generally have good resale anywhere, all day long.
My sister bought a brand new civic, drove it for 10 years and sold it with 400k (km) for half of what she paid for it. This was well before Covid “supply chain” issues and car shortages drove up used prices.
