8. GMC Sierra

The Canyon’s big brother beats it out for eight place. Like the Canyon versus Colorado battle, the Sierra is hands-down better looking than the Silverado. There’s just something about that front end… Inside, you’ll find a refinement that most makes have neglected, except its counterpart from Chevy. And with a trim level for everyone from construction runabout to Denali luxury, it has wide appeal.

The 2017 GMC Sierra should retain 56.8 percent of its original value after 36 months and 47.5 percent after 60 months.

7. Honda Ridgeline

It comes as no surprise the Honda Ridgeline will hold its value, especially this brand new model. It’s a great blend of light truck capability and SUV styling and construction. Based off the Honda Pilot platform, it’s a primarily front-wheel-drive vehicle that drives like a car. That said, people love it. You’ll still see the in-bed trunk and dual-action tailgate, as well as an in-box inverter.

The 2017 Honda Ridgeline is forecasted to retain 64.4 percent of its original sale price after 36 months and 47.6 percent after 60 months.

6. Chevy Colorado

The higher volume midsize truck from GM is the Chevy Colorado, so it makes sense that it’s also on the list. The previous generation was a pile of rusty junk, but this truck is a vast improvement. Say goodbye to the plasticky materials and hello to an assortment of tech features like 4G LTE WiFi and MyLink. And because it’s less expensive than the Silverado, it’s in higher demand, commanding great resale values.
