NADA Truck Value

The NADA guides are an excellent source for finding the values of classic vehicles. All you have to do is head to nadaguides.com, and land at the homepage. After that, click “Start Here,” which is next to “Classic Car Values


and Specs.” You’ll then be given options to select the model, sub-model, year, and make of the truck. There are also more options to further narrow down your research.

You can also search vehicles by picking specified manufacturers and automaker names. This is done through “Search Classic Cars by Make.” You can pick from many options, such as model, year, and other options.

On the NADA truck results page, you’ll find a values tab which shows the original MSRPs, in addition to many retail


values, ranked through low, average, and high. At the bottom you get a results page which shows the process of calculating a category for vehicle values. Finally, for more information, you can check the Special Notes tab.

On the same website, you can also find a link for classic trucks, through the “Classic Cars” page. There, you can pick a year and make for your vehicle, form drop down menus which you’ll see under “Find Your Next Classic Car” After that, enter a ZIP code. You’ll receive results that link to autotradeclassics.com, where you can further

narrow down your search. You get additional options of year, make model, price, and distance. You can shift through each option, getting different prices based on what you insert.

Where Can You Find a NADA Commercial Truck?

There’s something we’d like to note. NADA, or The National Association of Auto Dealers doesn’t sell of manufacture trucks. Instead, it’s a price guide to help consumers and dealers understand average trade-in and retail prices of

trucks and automobiles. The NADA guide provides information from millions of wholesale sales and retail transactions every month.

As of 8/2015, the NADA guide has had over 16000 members. This guide is open to memberships or any used or new automobile/truck sales franchise that operates in the United States. The organization gives members resources and tools to educate themselves on the market, while publishing updates on automobile laws and industry trends. To buy

a vehicle from NADA member dealers, a customer can head to nadaguides.com, and use the car locator tool.
