Takes into account regionality, fuel prices, GDP, unemployment and other data
Companies such as Moodys.com provide Kelley Blue Book with forecasts for macroeconomic indicators such as unemployment, fuel prices, gross domestic product (GDP) and the consumer price index (CPI).

Kelley Blue Book's statistical models also adjust weekly for large and small fluctuations in supply or demand caused by natural disasters, seasonality, regionality and macroeconomic changes.
