This. Difference is, I'll bet the majority of people who trade a car in "for the sake of convenience" have not done their research and get suckered in to the "That's all these are worth" We don't make much when we resell" etc.

I recall talking to someone once who bought a car without doing a test drive, because they liked the color. That probably explains how Chrysler sold PT Cruisers.

It's easy for us to think the car buying masses are just like us, but they're not.
