“After steady used car values in October, vehicle values overall decreased slightly in November,” said Anil Goyal, senior vice president of Automotive Valuation and analytics. “Values typically drop slightly around the holiday season as we reach late into the year, especially right before the tax rebate checks begin to spur buying activity in the first quarter.”
