This is an accurate depiction of depreciation for 2012+ Tacomas.

It’s also a graph about the unlikeliness for jkm to buy a truck any time soon.
EDIT: Also, label your x and y axis. This is a terrible graph.

Gimme a sec, I’m gonna go into my post history and find the first post that announced I wanted a truck in reference to when I first bought the Jetta.
"jkm7680" (jkm7680)
01/16/2017 at 21:50, STARS: 0
Ok, so I bought the Jetta around 2/02/16.
I first announced that I wanted a Tacoma on 2/11/16.
Literally eight days after I bought the fucking Jetta, hahah.

Hell yeah man, these things never depreciate.
I’m looking at this and it’s like they never go down.

You and others on here serve as cautionary tales for me, and further push me away from purchasing anything remotely expensive.

01/16/2017 at 22:10, STARS: 1
You may as well buy new.
"Spaceball-Two" (spaceball-two)
01/16/2017 at 22:13, STARS: 1
I don’t like the new look and the gap between 30k and 40k is pretty big.

I test drove a 2015 in that color. Such a sweet rig.
"Dr. Zoidberg - RIP Oppo" (thetomselleck)
01/16/2017 at 22:15, STARS: 2
... Yeah the new look is [inhales] difficult for me to accept. Not to mention they intentionally make the base models look like shit (that front bumper shape, WTF?) so you’ll spend more to level up. No single cab. Even the RWD ones are lifted 15 feet off the ground for no good damn reason. It took a while to come around, but the facelifted 2nd gen is where it’s at.

They look so nice.
I’m just not sure whether to pursue automatic ones or manual ones.
"jkm7680" (jkm7680)
01/16/2017 at 22:21, STARS: 1
Yes! I don’t get why they jack up the 2wd ones.
Rwd used to equal easier to load, but I guess not.

Here’s my base ‘14 RWD next to a base ‘16 RWD.
Allow me to just say: NO.

YES! I feel like they reworked the nose and the tailgate and now nothing is proportionate. Also that sand brown color is fucking AWFUL!

Honestly, buying a used Taco is stupid. Just buy a new one, it’s practically like driving a pile of cash around.

Also don’t get too close to the “design” grilles on the upper-spec’d ones. Does not instill confidence.

I seriously wonder why they did that.
It’s like buying a Prerunner in general!

I’m done with three pedals. At least for a truck anyways. My ultimate goal is to pick up a Tacoma then down the road a TT for fun.

To be honest, I’m getting kinda sick of driving manual ever day.
We have pretty similar plans, haha. I’m planning on getting a B5 S4 down the road to accompany whatever truck I get.

Ugh. My cousin bought a new GC with all the bells and whistles. Put some awful Discount Tire wheels on it. He’s on his second tranny and closing in on his third. Meanwhile his wife’s F-Pace is solid. Screw the new Chrysler. My 98 GC had zero issues.

I’m feeling sell out-ish, but traffic here (and there I’m sure) is such shit. It’s not fun anymore. I barely get out of 2nd.
An S4!? Shocking!

My brother had a ‘96 Neon and couldn’t kill it. Awful car that had a lot of heart. My mom had a K-car Caravan for almost 20 years. Other than my dad (Acura, acura, acura), all of us children have gravitated towards Toyota pretty heavily. Of course they all have Siennas, Avalons, and Sequoias. My brother just bought an IS350. MUST BE NICE.

I need comfort and utility. The other day I was sitting at a light and there was a white ST next to me and all I could think about was how much my back and knees would hurt driving that car.

I bought a new one in 2002 for this reason, used ones cost as much as almost new ones. Should have kept it, it’d be worth more than all my cars combined now.

Oooh, that’s really nice. Rwd though, To think you could get a not that much newer Tacoma for around the same price haha.
