And a Yukon as well - but I consider them all under “Tahoe” heading. Same for (now dead) Durango/Aspen Hybrid abomination.

And the IS/CTS thing is funny - I didn’t even notice the IS. Aren’t they roughly the same size as CTS as well? And both of them are about as luxurious as an A5 :meh:.  
I think KBB just decide which cars are going to get it and then changed the definitions of classes until all of them fit.

I’ve always thought they should have a small group of loyal followers that really wouldn’t drive the values up, similar to Saab enthusiasts.

its all about the jeep wave. makes peeps feel good about driving the POS.

I have always believed that resale values can be pretty well controlled to an extent.

Especially with Mini Coopers. Dealers sell used ones for way to much and it seems like they sit on the lots forever at those prices.

Resale awards also have to do with incentives on new cars. If the car has a $30k sticker and has a $5k rebate, a new one is now worth $25k and it kills the used car values. That is why GM vehicles have some of the worst resale values.
