Who's "blue book" valuation is the most realistic? I checked my TJ using
Edmonds, Kelly, and NADA and got considerably different numbers by about
$1100. I know I've heard people say that some of the blue book values are
off, but I need to know where I should be.
TIA

I think that's about as close as you're going to get. You might
just want to keep it, as go through the humiliation buyers will give
you. You know unless you can arrange finances, you're not going to come
close to low book.

I use NADA. I've found KBB to _usually_ be lower than NADA. If you use
NADA, be prepared for the usual gaggle of price police quoting you KBB
"blue book". Edmunds I only trust for new invoice pricing.
