    any owner who abuses their vehicle this much deserves to lose $50k/yr

    Btw...its a 1995 model if you look closer at the ad! Actual depreciation would have been around 26K per year for the first 3 years (based on 60% retained value after 3 yrs) and 12.6K per year thereafter given an average sale price of 15k today.
