Mine depreciated 59 percent in 5 years. Good for me, bad for the seller.
Battery still shows 99% capacity.

 Yeah, I complain about behemoth cars in car parks and school pickup
 lines, but it's usually when I know they're a 2 SUV family.  :)

 We have one small car that gets good mileage for local trips and parent

 long family trips with dogs.
