Looks like the Tacoma and Tundra also at the top.

Wow... I knew Toyota's "held their value" but... wow...

Kind of feel like I got an extra vehicle with my 4Runner. Glad I decided against the FJ.

The FJ Crusier was second in their respective category.

No way FORD got 60+ % on the exploder>>>>> However I am glad to see the 4 runner WAY up there.......

One thing this chart proves is quality and durability aren't the only reason a vehicle holds a high re sale value. Desirability is pretty important too as evidenced by the Honda Crosstour lol. I'm sure it's as dependable as the Accord but man, that thing is just seven shades of ugly.

The Honda Pilot is no gotta have by it's looks.

Good find [MENTION=66316]1engineer[/MENTION] and thanks for posting!! I find it particularly amazing given the last part of your description - here in CO at least, there are almost never incentives on 4Runners, thereby increasing the denominator and making it more difficult to hold value (as a reverse plateau effect comes into play as value decreases). Amazing

With those kind of numbers. I would just buy a new one and get what I want. Why buy a used one when 12K more would get you new !
I've been looking at used 10, 11 and 12's . Now I see why they are so high in price.
That's great if you are the seller.

Because 12k more means $250 more a month for a car payment.. Not everyone has that extra cash :cry2:
