TrueCar Pre-Owned Value Evaluation

The TrueCar Pre-Owned Value Awards are new for this year, and we are very pleased to see that Ford vehicles did well. Winners were determined by looking at used vehicle quality, brand outlook, and how competitively the product did in the market. For the 2016 honors, 2014 model year vehicles were evaluated. Vehicles won in different categories, and maintained a high percentage of their original value relative to competitors. This is similar to the criteria for the Kelley Blue Book 5-Year Cost to Own honors, which several Ford vehicles also won.
