I'm also not worried about a new car depreciating as we plan to keep this next vehicle for a long long time.This is definitely true with a lot of cars that hold their values well, like Toyotas. When I was looking at trucks I found this to be very true; I told myself I would never buy another brand new car after my first WRX but prices for nice used trucks were basically what I could pay for a new one spec'd out how I would want it.
I will say, Toyota hasn't been free of vehicle quality issues lately, especially in their trucks and SUVs, just something to consider.
