Can't the same be said for some select housing markets?
Maybe, but I'd rather put my money in real estate and have a much great chance of seeing an "appreciation" of my funds rather than an immediate 20 % depreciation of my funds in the first year of ownership of a vehicle. And again, a 15 % depreciation in year two and three and so on ...

And now do a wage growth comparison.

In 2010, the Ford F-150 for the highest model available had a starting MSRP of $46,740. In 2018, the F-150's highest model has a starting price of $64,275. That's a difference of $17,535 or roughly a 27 % price increase. Put another way, the price increased $2,191 per year over the last 8 years.
You're ignoring the increase in features, performance, etc that the F150 has had from 2010 to now. The new trucks are light years better than than the 2010.

Sort of but housing loans are still harder to come by than auto loans and usually the second thing people let go (after credit cards) in times of financial crises are vehicles.
I do think housing in the US will see an adjustment sooner than later but it will not be on the level of '07-'08 and it will not be as soon as the auto industry does.

I realize that vehicles on the road today are far superior to their counterparts 7 or 8 years ago. But we're talking in one case, a 27 % increase in pricing - this would be great and justified in the worker that is actually building the truck saw a 27 % increase in their pay in 8 years, but the likelihood of that is not a high probability.

Seriously some of our paychecks are larger than $1,000

I'm trying to figure out what value there is into keeping the window sticker on an 8-9 year old vehicle for your financial life

Materials cost more, R&D costs money. Inflation is also a thing. I know you're not dumb enough to not know these simple concepts.
ETA: I see I've angered the resident geniuses that I guess think all the additional features on vehicles shouldn't cost anything extra.

To further prove your point - and while he is not the end all, be all - one of the first questions that Dave Ramsey asks his callers on air is ... "so how much is your car payment? How much is it worth?" "And what is your household income?"
Sell the car! Sell the car!

It's not always about how much you make. It's about what you keep.
There are people who make 5 figures that have more net worth and savings than some people who make 6 figures.

Economic bubble, foreclosures, etc 2006-2010...dumb people had bad credit...7 years later, their credit back to normal, so they can get in over their heads again.

Most Americans are too dumb to understand interest.
They push out those loans to 10 years.
“$300 a month for that f250?!?! frick yeah I can afford that.”

Depends upon your situation and the vehicle you are choosing to buy.
For instance, a Toyota Tacoma holds it value. Considerably well. So in some cases, it may actually may make better sense to buy a new Tacoma over a 1 or 2 year old Tacoma, depending upon incentives and rebates.

If you have an issue with the numbers that I posted (see screenshot), take issue with JD Powers.
I trust the information that they have posted.

I've been looking for a Cayman GTS and the depreciation in an '18 vs a '16 with very low miles is insane. Like $20-$30K insane.
