Not going to lie, I laughed when you called me out and my passion over info-graphics (I don't give favor to bar, line or pie charts - all charts are treated equal). But yes, the TrueCar pic looks great! It's basically a representation of what KBB/Edmunds already gives you. (FYI - your link is wrong.) I wish they had older models, not just brand new cars. A site I really liked was http://www.oodle.com/ which searches multiple car listing websites. I personally bought my car on Craigslist and saved close to $5,000 by doing so, haven't looked back. A note to all buyers: Although Chris did a great job writing about how to buy a car and saving money; consider buying USED. It will save you 35% depreciation the first year. Chris, great article.

Actually having some knowledge of negotiation tactics and tips is another plus to have besides just knowing what other prices are out there! Thanks for the comment! Great point Laura.
