[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why on Earth is Jeep on your list? It's one of the least reliable brands in the US. Definitely not a good choice for a used purchase.[/quote]

I specifically waited until gas prices spiked in ‘21 to look for a used Jeep. Traded a ‘16 Subaru Crosstrek with 55k miles (crap car, btw- will never own another Subaru) and got $1700 over top blue book trade value for it. I was looking for a very specific model (‘16-17 Rubicon Hard Rock w/6spd manual) and had zero negotiation leverage because of that. High gas prices were the only thing that allowed me to find one at a fair price. Found a ‘16 with 37k miles for $48k and that was an almost unheard of deal, because gas prices were high. When it was new it stickered for $53k. In four and a half years and 37,000 miles it only lost $5k in value. Let’s compare that to what the average Benz or BMW or other luxury import loses in 4 years, and get back to me!

You might not like Jeeps, but they hold their value like almost no other vehicle. [/quote]
