Ford Depreciation

Ford's resale values are all over the map when you look out across the manufacturer's full lineup of vehicles. On the one hand, there's the F-150, which scores very well in the Top 10 at year 5, and the Mustang ranks well too, which stands in the top 20 of popular models. Then there's the Ford Fusion Energi, which simply ran out of steam (or whatever it runs on), and came in dead last at the 3-, 5- and 7-year marks. Ford is in the midst of a model lineup consolidation, so it's no surprise that some of the abandoned models have done poorly on holding their values.

The 2019 is our top pick for the best model year value for the Ford vehicles. With the 2019, you would only pay, on average, 74% of the price as new, with 92% of the vehicle's useful life remaining. The 2018 and 2016 model years are also attractive years for the Ford models, and provide a relatively good value. Our rankings consider multiple factors, including original new prices, current prices, maintenance costs and remaining years of overall predictabe expenses. Our top ranked model year represents the most car for the money with a Ford model.
