Price the individual car
History can move a Chevrolet Colorado far away from the model-year median
A clean title, documented maintenance, low mileage and desirable equipment can support a higher price. Accidents, title brands, odometer inconsistencies, rental use and unrepaired recalls should push the value lower. Compare vehicles within the same year and configuration, then use the VIN report to explain the difference.
