Jason Allan

Editor-in-Chief & Founder at Bestest | Former head of vehicle reviews and ratings at Kelley Blue Book

Before founding the used-car marketplace Bestest, Jason Allan was the head of vehicle reviews and ratings at Kelley Blue Book, and the primary architect of an editorial presence he helped grow into an institution for car shoppers. If you've ever trusted a Kelley Blue Book expert review, rating, or award, there's a good chance you've already trusted his guidance in one way or another. He's driven just about every car, truck, SUV, and minivan introduced during a career spanning more than two decades.

Bestest combines all that experience with a simple premise he could never execute at Kelley Blue Book: don't list the used cars you wouldn't buy yourself or recommend to a friend. Jason also leads the research behind the marketplace, turning market data into helpful insights for shoppers and the industry.
