Just had fun at a car dealership. The price they were asking was $3500 more than Edmunds TRV for that model year in our region. The mileage was a little lower than would be expected, but nowhere near enough to justify the difference. |

I noticed a big gap between Edmunds and KBB. I assume one is more dealer friendly and the other is more retail friendly. |

KBB is geared towards dealers from my understanding. It's where they will typically start their negotiating |

It's been years, but for insurance claims we used go with the NADA (Kelly Blue Book was viewed as having inflated values) for more accurate values. Nowadays insurance carriers use computer databases that supposedly track actual selling prices. |
