Kelley Blue Book
Originally born out of a car dealership's need to assign values to its inventory of automobiles, Kelley Blue Book began publishing an extensive list of automobile values in 1926. For nearly 70 years, the company's published materials were only designed for dealers, but a consumer-directed Blue Book was introduced in 1993. While Kelley Blue Book still publishes a print edition, its online website attracts more than 13 million visits each month. Today, sellers and buyers around the country use the "Blue Book value" of a car as a standard.
From helping consumers view new and used inventories at dealers around the country to avoiding fine-print pitfalls in lease terms, Kelley Blue Book is a comprehensive resource for anything automotive. While primarily used for cars and traditional passenger vehicles, Kelley Blue Book also lists suggested values of RVs, motorcycles, ATVs and snowmobiles.
