The 2008s hold up better than you would expect, I can vouch. But check for rust and the rear diff service history. If it's clean and under 150k, I'd still go for it without blinking an eye hahaha.
I picked up a 2010 Ridgeline last year after test-driving a 2008, and I'm glad I waited. The 2010 felt smoother overall. The 2008's fine if you're not towing or pushing it hard, but it's one of the years that some say to be cautious with.
If you find a clean 2010+, it's definitely worth aiming for. What kind of driving are you planning to do with it?
Early Ridgelines like the 2006-2008 models are still decent if well maintained, but they're more prone to higher mileage issues and fewer modern features. SO yeah, I agree with @enigmatic88 here, go for 2010+
