NADA Wanderlodge Listings

[mpierce]

I do not know how NADA gets its numbers, or doesn't, in the case of BB's. Are the dealers refusing to send them the data? If so, why would they start in the future?

You went out, and got some numbers. I accept that they are reasonably accurate. If it so easy for you to do it, why does NADA NOT do that?

It is obvious that however NADA is doing it now, it is NOT accurate. You admit that for the newer coaches, their numbers are high by 20-25% or so, correct?

The older numbers are off by a factor or 4 or so. i.e., my 90 is listed at $14,000, when they bring 3-4 times as much.

I agree that if NADA would publish accurate numbers, that would be the best. I think we all agree that as of right now, the numbers are way off. I just do not see how we get NADA to publish accurate numbers, because as of now, they show zero desire to do so, or as your own figures show, it is not real hard to get close.

What incentive can we give to dealers and brokers to report ALL sales accurately? They are NOT now, or if they are, NADA is ignoring them. I think most of us agree accurate NADA data is preferable, but I do not see how we get to that point? It is easy to say that we get the dealers to report, and NADA to compile and report those numbers, but I do not see exactly HOW that is done?

Unless we get reasonably accurate numbers, then I, and it seems most BB owners, think it would be better to have no reporting, than wildly inaccurate values.

Thanks for allowing a newbie to opine. Great sites. Much better to talk it out about the ideas, than to name call, as was being done by some. Thanks.
