How well does a Peterbilt hold its value?

Resale value is everything when you sell or trade. Because ForCar prices from the live market, you see how a Peterbilt actually depreciates — here's the median value by age across the brand's models, from real listings (compare with the typical depreciation curve by age):

We're still building enough Peterbilt listings across model years for a full brand depreciation curve — open a specific model for its value by year.

Trade-in, private-party & dealer price

Every Peterbilt has three prices. Our low–median–high range maps to what a dealer pays you, what you'd get selling it yourself, and what a lot charges — see current used-market prices across all models too:

On Peterbilt listings the dealer retail price (156% of median) runs about 1.7× the trade-in offer (91%) — the gap you're negotiating.

Trading in or selling your Peterbilt?

Know all three numbers before you walk in. Trade-in is fastest but lowest; selling private-party nets the most; a dealer's asking price shows the ceiling. ForCar's range gives you the leverage to negotiate from real data, not a salesperson's screen.
