What It's Actually Worth

Blended value of a standard 19 yr, 75k mi example, ~$22.6K now. The green line weighs confirmed auction sales most heavily (the amber dots — what cars actually hammered for), blends in fast-selling "just-missed" listings, and lightly smooths out month-to-month composition noise.

Lead Indicator Forecast

Some indicators move before this market does. High-Yield Bond Spread has historically led it by about 21 months — so its recent move implies where prices head next (dashed). The solid green line is actual value through today; the shaded path is what the lead implies.

$22.6K now +21mo 2012-04 $48.0K $14.2K
BECAUSE credit spreads fell 1%. THEREFORE, given its usual 21-month head start, we expect little change — about +0% (≈ +$3) over the next 21 months. Confidence: Moderate (correlation -0.73, 18 months overlap).

Crystal Ball — What Leading Indicators Signal

Distinct from the trend forecast above: this blends all 8 leading indicators (each at its own lead time, de-duplicated so correlated ones don't double-count) into one signal. Leading indicators are collectively signaling sideways over the next ~12 months (moderate conviction — 49% of weighted drivers agree), driven mainly by US Metro Mean Temperature and VIX Volatility Index, though US Metro Mean Temperature points the other way.

Are the indicators agreeing?

Each bar is one driver's current push; longer = more weight. All one side = high conviction; split = low.

If You’d Bought in 2012

$100K invested 2012-04 → today (14.3 yrs), this car vs where else you could've put the money. Rebased to 100 at the start; the dashed line is inflation (break-even).

━ This car $132K━ S&P 500 $716K━ Gold $269K━ Luxury $625K━ Housing $242K
Lost ground to inflation. The Dodge Ram HD (2003-2010) roughly 1.3×'d your money (a real 9% LOSS to inflation). It LAGGED the stock market by about 82% — the same money in the S&P 500 would be larger. It trailed housing (-46%). (Price only — a real round-trip also loses ~10–20% to buy/sell fees and carrying costs.)
