r/UsedCars on Reddit: Do used cars go down in price at end of year?
October 25, 2024 -
Looking at a 2021 and 2020 model of a vehicle. Do cars generally go down in price at the end of the year. For instance, come end of this December, 2025, a 2021 will be 4 years old vs currently 3 years old. Or is there no difference?

Not exactly the way you’re thinking; but in late November/December/early January commissioned salespeople will be a LITTLE more inclined to cut you a better price. Less customers around (because no matter what Lexus commercials have told us for years, very few people are car shopping at Christmas) Then in January buyers are trying to get a read on just how bad the post-Christmas credit card bills are gonna hurt. Not to mention the salesmen themselves could usually stand to bring in a couple quick commissions

30 year old car enthusiast from the PNW. Always checking marketplace for fun and keep seeing 90’s F150’s/ chev 1500’s/ Toyota 4Runners etc for crazy amounts. For context I bought a mint 97 GMC 1500 in 2012 for $4000. I’m seeing those trucks for over $10,000 now in worse shape. Same for all brands. Is this just the new normal?

No. The filthy scumbags that rule over us have devalued the dollar by printing money at a criminal pace which has resulted in you needing more of the devalued dollars to buy things (used cars included).

for trucks? Probably not. When a new Truck is $70,000+ it pulls up the price of all the older crapboxes too. People need trucks and the sellers know it.

March 27, 2026 - While this is a very slight decrease, it’s the first indication of a drop in prices since they skyrocketed in 2020 and 2021. See below for weighted representations of price changes. The higher the number, the more the price changed, on a scale of 140 to 1801. As of July 2024, average used-car prices are still about 33 percent higher than pre-pandemic costs.
