You have two choices: the Scion xA, which will cost $17,500 to purchase and which will have OCF of –$1,900 annually throughout the vehicle’s expected life of three years as a delivery vehicle; and the Toyota Prius, which will cost $26,000 to purchase and which will have OCF of –$1,000 annually throughout that vehicle’s expected 4-year life. Both cars will be worthless at the end of their life.
