Last year when our old Prius was totaled in an accident, we used CR to help determine a good price. I configured the car with CR and got a "Target Price" to aim for. The amount seemed ok and I was able to get it or better.
For some inexplicable reason I started to goof off with the TrueCar app and then got an email from CR and CR now appears to be using TrueCar.
When we bought the new Prius last year, CR sent my info to a dealer who contacted me. I was a little uncomfortable with the close relationship between CR and the dealer, but it seemed to work. Now CR is letting TrueCar do the work. They give you a "guaranteed" price, not a target price.
They are pushing me towards a 2014 and show only one "certified" dealer, though the name of the dealer is not revealed to me yet. When I select a 2015, then they show a dealer over 100 miles away.
We have a 2003 Honda CRV that has near 100K on it, so replacing it is not out of the question.
Anyone have any experience with TrueCar or with another pricing service?
The car I have been looking at is the Prius V.
