The thing that's always bothered me about new cars is the drop in value as soon as you drive off the lot. I'm not concerned with being the only person who's ever driven a vehicle unless it's a Chrysler, GM, or Ford product. I figure with Toyota and Honda you're getting a quality product as long as it hasn't been in a major accident or flood or anything.

Since Hondas and Toyotas are among the best at holding their value, their used prices will be higher. I'm also trying to avoid a new car payment. Of course, if I could find one new for under $18k I'd certainly jump.
