More Than 5,000 Dealers Subscribe to RouteOne's Vehicle Value Product in First Year of Rollout


FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich., Feb. 8 - RouteOne LLC announced today that more than 5,000 dealers are now subscribed to its Vehicle Values tool since the product's launch in late 2006. The Vehicle Value tool is integrated with values from the N.A.D.A. Official Used Car® Guide, with Black Book scheduled for availability in early February 2008, and Kelley Blue Book in the second quarter of 2008.

The Vehicle Values tool allows dealers to precisely and quickly obtain used vehicle values during RouteOne's online credit application process. The information available to subscribing dealers and finance sources includes N.A.D.A. base values, as well as adjustments for mileage and optional accessories. The dealer can value a vehicle independently using the online Vehicle Values tool, and then effortlessly transfer all the information about the vehicle and its value to a RouteOne credit application. Subscribing finance sources may receive the same information in automated fashion, avoiding the need for a manual lookup.

"The sheer volume of dealer subscriptions in just over a year demonstrates that our dealers and finance sources find great value in this service," said Mike Jurecki, RouteOne CEO. "We strive to provide our dealers and finance sources value-added tools that will help them process and fund applications as quickly, accurately, and easily as possible."
