How reliable are NADA figures?

For used and new? Should we expect to pay the "low retail" on NADA or can we get it for less?

  • I don't know about Georgia, but in Southern California NADA guides are incredibly low for used fifth wheels. We bought a 2003 Nash 21 5R a year and a half ago for $6000 and Nada guides had them at $2900. And we got a really good deal. All the others we saw were $7-8000. I would look around on craigslist if you have it or rvtrader to get an idea of prices. Good luck!
  • Should we just make an offer about 40% below asking price to see where they go, even with the used?
  • I've heard that the online public ones are a bit high compared to a dealer's version. Don't know if that's true though.
