    I don’t look at resale because when I am done with a vehicle it is only worth what the scrap plan will give me for it

    Something to consider when looking at a new vehicle with huge rebates thinking you’re saving a bunch of money up front only to get screwed when it’s time to sell a car that doesn’t hold its value.

    While the average new vehicle will be worth about 33 percent of its original sticker price after 60 months, these 10 vehicles will return an average of 51 percent to their owners' pockets. For a $30,000 vehicle that works out to a meaningful difference of $5,000 over a 5-year buy-own-sell ownership cycle. That's why choosing a car with good resale value can often save you more money in the long run than chasing big rebates and other incentives”

    I drive a Tacoma and not surprised at all. Their resale is really crazy despite having their own problems.

    Who knows whats true. I think there was an article posted here by someone that listed the top 10 longest lasting trucks. I would think those would have the highest resale value being they last longer. The list was considerable different.

    Who knows.

    Exactly........if it's a 2018 and already resold, WTF ? And how do they know what they will be worth @ 24 & 36 months ???

    Do they have a really big crystal ball ??

    Remember, they have to know what they will be worth down the road, it’s how leases are set up. ALG is typically the one that does lease residuals and I’d bet hat’s probably where KBB got the data for the story.

    Who knows.

    Durability and and longevity don’t have much to do with resale value in 3 years. For example, if Brand X kills resale by constantly changing rebates and flooding the market with trucks originally sold to the rental companies, that has nothing to do with how long those vehicles will last.

    One is resale, the other longevity.

    I bought one in 2015 it's worth more than I paid new but I have about $40k in upgrades as well. Look up jeepfest or jeep rides you'll understand why.
    Instead of traveling fishing now I travel off roading or jeep shows good people, rednecks with a passion!

    I bought mine for $31.5k, drove it for 26k miles and traded it in for $30k. I also was able to remove all of the aftermarket parts and sell them for about 50-60% of the purchase price. I was pleasantly surprised to say the least. My wife's boss bought a used one, drove it for four years while he was in college, then sold it for the same price he paid for it. Jeep's really hold their value if you take good care of them. Problem is, it's really hard to "take good care" of something you use on level five rock crawling trails!

    I always thought jeeps were over priced to begin with. Not bashing just an observation

    Wrangler's have had one of the highest resale values for decades.

    If you have one with a one-off one year color, like Crush Orange, they're even more valuable.

    I've been shopping for a used Tacoma but prices are so high that I will be buying new. I've been seeing asking prices only 15 - 20 % less than new on trucks with 60 to 80 k miles and more. On the other hand my 3 year old Silverado is worth about 60% of the sticker price.
