What the numbers say

A 2008 Chevrolet Avalanche still asks 64% of what a 2013 one does — that's how much value it holds after 5 years. Among 20 pickups we price, that ranks #13, below the 68% class median. The steepest single-year drop comes at year 3 (−44.9%), after which losses ease to about 25.5% a year. Mileage costs it 56%: the same car reads 100k–150k instead of Under 40k miles. Calculated from 195 listings.
