What It's Actually Worth

Blended value of a standard 33 yr, 119k mi example, ~$18.3K 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.

If You’d Bought in 2025

$100K invested 2025-04 → today (1.2 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).

Lost ground to inflation. The Ford F-150 SVT Lightning (Gen 1, 1993-1995) roughly 0.6×'d your money (a real 39% LOSS to inflation). It LAGGED the stock market by about 53% — the same money in the S&P 500 would be larger. It trailed housing (-37%). (Price only — a real round-trip also loses ~10–20% to buy/sell fees and carrying costs.)

Economic Drivers

We map every market against ~35 economic indicators — equities, rates, luxury demand, credit, housing — to find what leads its prices. This market needs a bit more confirmed sold history before those signals are reliable; it will appear automatically as data accrues.
