Bret Glendening:
The condition of the vehicle and its mileage is taken into consideration in the Kelley Blue Book.

[3]
Depreciation should be calculated by dividing the purchase price by the number of years the vehicle is expected to be kept.  In our case, this figure would most likely be 10 years.  However, some vehicles may have a longer expected life, and for those vehicles, this life expectancy should be used.
