Isn't selling a car BECAUSE it depreciated so much kind of like "buying high, selling low"? You've already taken the hit financially, and if it had already depreciated so much, I would think you'd be more likely to hold onto it and enjoy it. But instead you bought ANOTHER new car, which will also depreciate a lot in its first year (all cars do), and you don't even enjoy it as much!

Just seems like very odd logic to me...
