Vehicle Depreciation Rates Matter

When shopping for a vehicle, take several factors into consideration. If you know you’ll only have it a few years, the vehicle depreciation rate matters. When you lease, the payments you make are applied to the anticipated depreciation of the vehicle, meaning a higher depreciation rate will cause you to have higher payments. The same is true if you’re going to trade in the vehicle after only three years of driving. Here are the vehicles that have the highest depreciation rate for the first three years which should be a factor for you to consider when you’re ready to drive. (more…)

2018 Mercedes-AMG C-Class: Sinister Performance

The stories have been told for many years about characters that have alter-egos. Whether those alter-egos are devilish and evil such as the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde combination or the likes of Peter Parker becoming Spiderman, we’ve become familiar with how these characters can transform to be what they can be deep inside. Mercedes-Benz has turned to their own alter-ego with the AMG performance team to help offer us a full lineup of models that are built to perform the way we want to on the road.

The Odd Vehicle That’s sure to be an Instant Classic

Yes, it takes at least a quarter of a century for a vehicle to qualify as a classic model and something built in 2007 feels like it could be just hype because that year feels like it was just yesterday, but let’s take a closer look at what I’m talking about. In 2007, the year before the automotive market dropped like a rock, it seemed like every automaker in the world was clamoring to make something out of nothing and the market was filled with interesting vehicles from all over the world, but one in particular offers us the subject matter of this post.

The Next Name to be Part of the Pickup Crowd
