Do you purchase new vehicles and if so, why?

It depends what you buy. Luxury cars are always the quickest to decrease in value. When i bought my tacoma i looked for a used one that was 1-2 years older at first. They were all nearly the same price as the ones brand new on the lot, and the used ones had zero modifications and 30k or so miles on them. I paid 29,500 for my tacoma brand new, that was 20 months ago, if i put my truck into kbb in stock condiition it says private party is 29,000

Do not use KBB as real valules. They aren’t.

The days of KBB is over. Edmunds TMV is pretty close to actual. It’s fairly on the low side.
