Tahoe Popularity

Really, you think that having far less people want to buy a Tahoe won't reduce resale price? Must be new math

Yep. I sure do. Take a second and think about it. What do all vehicles in America with low resale have in common? Answer: Fleet Sales. Look at government fleets and rental car agencies. Yes, they buy the Tahoe too, but to a much smaller degree that the Expedition, Durango, and Commander, not to mention Taurus and Focus. This also explains why Hondas hold their values, and why Toyota's 5 year business plan focused on increased market share via fleet sales, thus decreasing resale value on Camry and Corolla. Honda doesn't have a fleet sales program. Fleet programs, fleet pricing, and fleet availability wreak havoc on resale values. When fleet vehicle availability reduces and fleet pricing increases a vehicle holds its value better. For a clear example of this, look at Ford over the last 5 years. They announced they were cutting fleet availability by 30% in their Q3 or Q4 2007 financial reports. That's when resale value started improving, percentage-wise, for their vehicles.

I too was surprised to see the Tahoe and Mustang on the list.

But, Mustang has priced itself out of the market. For $35,000 I can get a fully loaded Mustang GT or a Dodge Challenger R/T. I would choose the Challenger R/T over the Mustang any day of the week.

I love the look of the new Challenger, but the Mustang is far superior to it in pretty much every category that is not subjective.
