These are all good things to consider. I guess I'll have to reset my gauge, and try to get a little newer car in the 5000 range that will have a higher Kelley Blue Book value than I pay for the vehicle. That way further depreciation might be offset a little. I usually buy a car from the owner that have really good maintenance records and are getting a newer car, and want a better price than the trade-in, or kept the car for a while after the new buy for other reasons.
