Vehicle research

[Feldenak]

Other than edmunds.com, what are some good places to be researching vehicles? My wife & I are going to need to pick up a 2nd vehicle in the coming months and I figure this is as good a time as any to start researching things.

Kelly's bluebook, and NADA, are good also, do a google search as I don't have them in my bookmarks any more.

Edmunds being low on resale, Kelly's high, and NADA just about right for pricing anyway, they all have nice research features.

I use http://auto.conusmerguide.com

It is a good place to find quick info on a variety of models and once I've narrowed down, I do more in-depth searches on particular vehicles.

You might also find if a discussion forum exists around your particular make/model and start reading there.

I agree, the particular vehicle you are interested in, a discussion forum is an excellent place to go, besides the sites already mentioned. I really dislike Consumerguide for just about everything. Way too subjective.

Thanks folks. Haven't narrowed down the field too much yet...the only brand I won't consider is Chrysler.

Although I use a lot of different sites when it comes down to it the edmunds forums are hard to beat. There are a lot of knowledgable people on there as well as some dealers who usually have all the answers to your question.
