CarEdge Depreciation Calculator

You entered the vehicle's current age and how long you plan to own it. To understand your projected depreciation:
  • Start with the row matching the vehicle's current age
  • Find the row for the vehicle's age after your ownership period
  • The difference between those two resale values is your estimated depreciation
Example: If your vehicle is 2 years old and you plan to own it for 3 years, look at the values for 2 and 5 years old.

Buying a Lincoln Aviator New vs Used

If you purchase a used Lincoln Aviator that is 2 years old, then you could save $24,827 compared to buying new, and still have a relatively new model with plenty of useful life remaining. If you plan to keep this vehicle for 3 years then your total cost of depreciation would be $17,115. Try other age and ownership length combinations, or different vehicles to see if you can find depreciation sweetspots where this cost is the lowest. Hint: Try vehicles between 2 and 4 years old, as brand new vehicles depreciate quickly. Also, if this is a recently released model and buying a few years old isn't possible, consider another vehicle, or perhaps wait until more used Aviator models become available.

What About Lincoln Aviator Insurance Costs?
