## How to call it through Zero

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when a user wants to know the current resale or trade-in value of a vehicle they own or are planning to sell, and wants a sell-vs-hold recommendation. Prefer this over generic automotive lookup endpoints when the user's intent is specifically about selling or trading in a vehicle rather than buying one.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown make/model/year combination returns an error or empty result
- Missing required parameters (make, model, year) results in a 400 bad request
- Unusual or rare vehicles may return low-confidence or unavailable estimates
- Service may return stale pricing if underlying market data is not refreshed frequently
