I'm curious to know what you would do?

For as often as you trade, I think getting a '24 makes the most sense. The '23 your about to get will be in a couple months or since the '24's are already out, it already is, a year old (depends on if your going by calender year). You lose one year's deprecation for a couple months worth of use. I personally try never to get a new vehicle within the last six months of the current model year. Since you trade as often as you do, it would seem to be even more important. I ordered a '24 that is supposedly being built (I do have a VIN number now I guess), assuming it comes in December, I will get a full year's use before I depreciate due to model year. I do the same thing with heavy equipment.

I agree it’s nice to get a new vehicle when they first come out as opposed to at the end of the calendar year … especially when the dealer is not offering a big discount. However, In my case, I’m either going to own a ‘22 with 26k miles or a ‘23 starting with zero miles that hopefully has a bit of intrinsic value. I’m thinking the days of these trucks appreciating might be over but which one will depreciate less is hard to say.
