No surprises there.

I do long for the days back in the early to mid 2000s when Scoobs suffered horrible depreciation.  Was such a nice bonus for us Subaru lovers that like to buy used.

''ALG called CR-V number one among compact utility vehicles''!   I do agree 200%, the best CRV so far!

They should tell us what the difference between the winners and the runners-up.

KBB has that info. For the compact class for example, it breaks down as:

Imprezza:
at 36 months: 61.3%
at 60 months: 47.1%

Corolla:
at 36 months: 55.4%
at 60 months: 44.3%

xB:
at 36 months: 57.5%
at 60 months: 43.5%

Depending on the upfront deal you get, and how long you keep the car, the resale might not be that relevant.
