Smile True Black Book Prices

http://www.cudlautosmart.com/Researc...WT.svl=SubMenu

I have used the above link for true black book prices on vehicles. I use it as a negotiation tool and used it on my recent Dakota purchase. I have verified through a friend who works at a dealership about the prices it gives and they match his little black book exactly. I figure this might help someone about a future purchase.

For the most part nada is pretty accurate for dealerships. Whenever we have a car total out the insurance company is usually within 5% of retail unless there is depreciation for prior damage.
