    so differently in the used car market? TRD Sports always seem to much more expensive in the used market, while they are cheaper to purchase new? I know the differences, the locker on the OR and whatnot, making it more expensive, but how come Sports seem to be much more expensive used with similar mileage..?

    Thanks

    people buy new OR's then regret it and trade in for a sport, thus more OR's on used lots = cheaper

    I don't get why someone would regret it... the OR packages, esp 09+ actually have a real advantage, the locker. Color matched panels are nice but function over aesthetics...

    Also, local market here seems like the OR hold value better... :shrug:

    Seeing the third gen section forced me to get a Ford...
    up until 09 when they removed the mechanical LSD, sports MSRP'd for more than the ORs
