2. Toyota 4Runner
Like the Jeep Wrangler, the Toyota 4Runner is a true off-road legend. The newest version doesn’t forget that heritage, keeping true to its roots. The 4Runner is a truck-based SUV with great ground clearance and CRAWL Control. True trailblazers will lean toward the Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro with Bilstein shocks, skid plates and more. Oh yeah, and it’s damn sexy.
For 2017, the Toyota 4Runner is forecasted to retain 64.3 percent of its sales price after three years and 54.5 percent after five years.
1. Toyota Tacoma
Holding tight to first place yet again is the Toyota Tacoma. For 2017, the Tacoma continues with the fresh one-year-old design that’s both rugged and riveting. It’s powerful, able to handle virtually the same workload as a fullsize pickup, and perhaps the most fun pickup you can drive. Its fuel economy could be a bit better, but there has to be a flaw in this Mona Lisa somewhere, right?
The Toyota Tacoma depreciates very little over the first three years, declining to a steady 71.8 percent of its original value. After five years, the results are still strong with a resale value of 58.5 percent of its original price. And the fact that it’s one of the cheapest trucks to buy, the Toyota Tacoma is a sweet package.
