+1 Dealers use Galves because it is the most realistic price. If you are sellng you car or trading it in get the Galves book because this is what your car is really worth (usually). It also would not hurt to look at Galves to see what your shiny new car wil be worth once you drive it off the lot in a few years. It will make you sick. The wisest car buyers buy used late model cars at as close to Galves as they can get. I wish that were me.
