Used Trucks That Have Retained More Than 75% of Value Over 3 Years

Looking for a used truck that won't depreciate immediately? These trucks have retained more than 75% of their value since driving off the dealership lot more than three years ago.

Buying a used car can be stressful, especially if you are looking for a capable truck. Trucks tend to be put to the test more than your everyday car, which means buying a used one can be tricky. Check out this list from Edmunds of trucks that have retained a significant amount of value over the years.

The 2018 Ford F-250 Super Duty is one of the best used trucks

This truck retained 80% of its trade-in value over the years. The experts rated it an 8.0 out of 10 and found that the 2018 Ford F-250 Super Duty “strikes the balance between maximum hauling capability and a dose of civility.”

For a heavy duty used truck, check out the GMC Sierra 2500 HD

Like the Ford F-250, the 2018 GMC Sierra 2500 HD retained 80% of its trade-in value. Edmunds says it has impressive towing and hauling capability combined with a “refined and quiet ride.” The diesel engine has a ton of power and offers quick acceleration, even for a huge truck.

The ever-reliable Toyota Tacoma truck

It is no secret Toyota makes a solid truck. The 2018 Toyota Tacoma is a popular vehicle that offers some of the best used truck value. The 2018 Tacoma has managed to hold onto 79% of the retail value over the last few years. Edmunds gave the truck a rating of 8.2 out of 10, a solid rating for a used truck.

Edmunds appraisal value: $26,900 – $36,990

The 2018 Ram 3500 has proved its worth

Like the Tacoma, Edmunds found that the 2018 Ram 3500 retained 79% of its value. The Ram 3500 is offered with a powerful diesel engine and a comfortable cabin. The truck is quiet for a vehicle of this size, and the available aur-suspension makes a big difference. It can tow more than 31,000 pounds and has a payload capacity of 7,390.

Edmunds appraisal value: $25,564 – $32,577

Another option from Toyota is the 2018 Toyota Tundra

The 2018 Toyota Tundra has a roomy cabin and a lot of power from the standard V8 engine. The Toyota Safety Sense driver safety and assist system makes this a safe used truck that retained 78% of its value. The Tundra can tow more than 10,000 pounds, but that lags behind some of its competitors.

Edmunds appraisal value: $25,609 – $32,727

This used truck has a huge following: 2018 Toyota 4Runner

Are you seeing a trend here? Toyota has the most used trucks on this list, which is a good sign. The 2018 Toyota 4Runner has quite a following, which helps keep prices high. The Toyota 4Runner is a reliable truck, and the TRD trim is one of the more desired options. This used truck can go off-road and has a variety of configurations to suit many needs. It can only tow 5,000 pounds, so be aware if you need to tow a lot.

Edmunds appraisal value: $27,423 – $35,052

Another heavy-duty truck option is the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD

As far as used trucks go, the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD is also a good buy. Since it is a heavy-duty truck, the max towing capacity comes in at 14,500 pounds with the regular tow hitch. Buyers can bump that up to 18,100 pounds with a trailer. The Silverado 2500 HD is a large truck that can handle the toughest of jobs.

Edmunds appraisal value: $22,549 – $28,845

The 2018 Jeep Wrangler JK can tow enough for some people

The 2018 Jeep Wrangler JK retained 75% of its value over three or more years. It is another used option that offers buyers a lot of customization. Plus, the Wrangler is a pro off-road. If you are looking to tow a lot, look elsewhere. However, the Jeep Wrangler is a fun and capable choice for those looking to off-road and tow a small load occasionally.

Edmunds appraisal value: $21,556 – $26,958
