AutoTrader is a free Car Quote Services website that provides users with a variety of information on new and used cars and trucks, which include prices, photographs and reviews from Consumer Guide, NADA Guides and Edmunds.com.

Our #1service, Edmunds.com uses AutoTrader as a classified section to post ads for cars and trucks from auto dealers and private sellers. Although AutoTrader is a good service, they don’t provide a lot of their own information; they use direct links to other Car Quote Services sites.

In addition to providing a useful section to sell your car, AutoTrader produced an impressive 21 vehicles available in our area from auto dealers and private sellers for our test vehicle, the Pontiac Vibe. The results are due to several other sites that AutoTrader uses to advertise vehicles for sale such as Yahoo! Autos, Edmunds.com, AOL Autos and NADA Guides.
