Kelly Blue Book rated as 2nd best resale value!!!!!!!!

> MSRP: $25,520
> Make: Toyota
The Tacoma once competed with compact pickups like the Ford Ranger and the Dodge Dakota, both of which are no longer manufactured. Competitive pickups from GM are getting a face-lift soon, and the Honda Ridgeline is less a truck than an [COLOR=#668833 !important][COLOR=#668833 !important]SUV[/COLOR][/COLOR], while the Nissan Frontier does not offer as many configurations as the Tacoma. From the base price for a double-cab, four-cylinder 2WD version, moving up to the 4WD four-door model fitted out with plenty of options can top $36,000. City/highway fuel economy for the 2WD four-cylinder version with a manual transmission is 21/25; the V6 with 4WD and an automatic transmission is rated 16/21.

FJ Cruzer was First at 70%

 

old news. it has been for years and years.

The article I read Monday showed residual value at 3 years. Tacoma #1 at 64% and the FJ #2 at 63%. It wasn't KBB though.

 

that's why I said, "old news". Toyota tends to dominate the resale value segment year after year.

 

Recently I looked at Tundra. Salesguy jump out and tried to push Tundra on me. I asked him whats the trade in value for Tacoma he said
Whatever KBB says for perfect condition plus couple thousand.
He said they have couple hundred used vehicles on the lot, but 0 Tacomas.

 

I always new they had really good resale. Its just cool to have the official results

 

another reason to own the best light truck in the world. I know I was surprised at the value even after ten years you're still paying 60% value. you'll be able to sell it close it what I bought it for as well

 

Another interesting point in this KBB data was that the FJ was number 1, at 70% retained value if I recall correctly.
