I have no dog in this fight and am not insured with Hagarty's, so don't get the publication. But wonder what their data base is for their values? NADA or other more "modern" guides would use resale values, or auction values and was car dealer driven. Since Hagarty's is an insurance company, wonder if they get their values from customers who insure their vehicles with stated values verified by a customer supplied "appraisal"?
Number could be inflated if that were the case. Wonder if they used the values of what they paid for totaled vehicle claims if the number would be somewhat lower? Just a guess.
