Vehicles that Hold Their Value
On the average a vehicle will lose twelve percent of its value during the first year of ownership. Some cars lose more, others lose less and when you know you are going to trade the vehicle in that you have recently purchased the ability of your vehicle to hold its value is extremely important. Instead of being a statistic, this actually becomes a feature of the vehicle itself and makes it much more important for you to ensure you have a vehicle that will easily be resold for a good price and give you the most value overall. Here are ten vehicles that are well-known for holding their value and depreciate very little over the first year.

The most recent lineups from Volvo offer a huge amount of style and design to give us looks that are exactly what we want to see in vehicles of this caliber.

New Jersey Makes it Illegal to Roll Coal
“Rolling Coal” is a term used for the added emissions that can be emitted from a diesel powered vehicle. This process is achieved through retrofitting the vehicle, which typically costs between a few hundred and several thousand dollars. The practice of “rolling coal” makes it possible for drivers to emit this black smoke on command, leaving drivers and pedestrians covered in a cloud of soot that is completely unnecessary. For whatever reason these drivers get pleasure out of leaving others awash in their emissions, New Jersey has had enough and made it illegal.
