Hi Motorola, nice info.

These numbers are blowing my mind but I see where it says, "due to vehicle shortages" so that makes sense and adds some context to what I'm seeing.

Jeep products surprised me how well they are holding their value.
What you think, any on here surprise you?

The Wrangler has always held its value pretty well because it's in a segment of its own, compact body-on-frame. I'll be interested to see how it fares now with the introduction of the Bronco.

I saw a new Bronco the other day when passing the VW dealer and surprised it didn't make the lists you posted.

They had it parked diagonal on the corner sitting up a raised mound like it was the pride of their used car selection- like, 'hey look at me'.
It outshined(by far) the rows of used Tiguans without even trying. IMO

Because the list is only for vehicles that are currently 5 or 3 years old, meaning model years 2017 and 2019. The new Bronco didn't come out until 2021.

It's too new, plus the jeeps are like that since they have insane aftermarket and people love customizing them.
