One way you can make the decision on your own is to look at Edmunds
for the value of cars a year apart that are approximately as old as
you would expect to keep this new car. Look at the difference in
value between the used cars, and compare that with the difference
between the cars under consideration. The longer you keep the new
car, the less difference it makes.
