Ridekick vs Kelley Blue Book

A price in writing, not a guess.

Every way to buy a car makes you give something up. Here is the tradeoff with Kelley Blue Book, and how Ridekick avoids it.

The catch with Kelley Blue Book

KBB gives you a rough number. But no dealer has agreed to it. And its "get offers" tool hands you to dealers, so the calls follow.

With Ridekick

Ridekick gets you the out-the-door price a dealer put in writing. Not a guess. Dealers get your phone and email when you choose to share them to pick a time to visit or lock in an offer.
