NEVER Buy A Car From A Dealership

NEVER Buy A Car From A Dealership

My name is Brandon and I am a used car dealer. I created Car Questions Answered to share the ins and outs of the used car market from my perspective. I share with you updates on car prices, what's happening at the dealer auctions, and what it's like being a dealer. My goal is to share information to help you make the best decisions while buying a car to save you money. I do not want car dealers taking advantage of you.

Thanks for watching and please feel free to leave any comments you may have in the section below!

I gave my kids $1000 towards their first car. My daughter bought a $400 Corolla and used the $600 left for tires and parts. She and I did all the work (fluid changes, plugs, wires, brakes, and thermostat replacement. She learned a lot from that experience and we had a blast bonding. She drove it for 3.5 years then sold it for $800

For those who are 1st time viewers, Brandon is trying to change a small portion of how used cars are sold… and that’s transparency…. It’s refreshing to hear and his shared info is interesting to watch…. One man’s opinion….thanks

Nothing forces dealerships to be shady…they choose to be shady.

Having just purchased a used car, I can say it was one of the most difficult experiences I have been through for a long time. All the cars from dealers had something wrong with them that was readily apparent, even to a 77 year old great-grandmother like me. The doc fee was $300 in our area but when I went looking in a nearby state, I found that the doc fee was between $600-$1000! I couldn't believe it. So I went on Facebook Marketplace and found a great car that passed my complete checklist and drove extremely well. It was $500 below book and with the non-existent doc fee, $800-$1300 cheaper than buying from a dealer. The owner told me the dealer he used for the maintenance and I got a 13 page printout of all the maintenance and the car had been very well maintained, including the 60, 000 mile transmission service. I will never again go to a dealer!

Love you man. Thanks for being a straight-shooter. Not many of you left.

Title should say never buy a car from a SHADY dealer…..which is 98% of them. I need to buy a solid used car….where are you located at. You’ve earned my business.

I just bought a used truck. I had 2 requirements before I fully engaged. 1. All negotiating would be done remote 2. It had to be via email or txt. 95% of the dealers just kept calling to get me to come into the office (Had a lot of voicemails to keep deleting). Life is busy, I am on the phone all day for MY work - and do not have time to drive 1-2 hours, was another couple hours and find out we're not going to make a deal anyway. 2 dealers participated, 1 gave me a reasonable out the door price and I went and bought the truck.

The dealer always wins, but I refuse to have my time wasted by going in-store when it's 2024 and they/we have methods to do email and/or text messaging.

You are educating the consumer like no other auto professional ever has done! You are a great honest professional!!!

I've had old used cars my whole life and the only advice I can give is: Make sure you can do at least the simple work yourself because you WILL be replacing things all the time.

Advice - Pay cash for a cheap vehicle. Spend what it takes to fix all needed service and repairs, even if it takes several thousand dollars for repairs and maintenance work. You will have a sound vehicle that will run for years. Or, you can spend a ton of money on a new one, with a huge car payment over several years. Works for me.

My wife and went to purchase a new car, to us, I ask what the best price they would be willing to sell the car for. When we decide to buy then comes out all the additional cost. We decided to wait and look for one from a private seller. It’s no fun buying a car.

My Mom just bought a used Lexus RX350 F Sport, a 2022, and the first dealership she tried to buy one from tried to charge her $1400 for new tires(like they didn’t have to fucking do that anyways to sell it) and $700 for a “detail” when she asked to see all the extra costs. She’s smart tho and didn’t listen to those “sweet nothings” and went to a dealership across the state that was way more fair with prices and fees

You said a lot of truth here. The one thing that sticks out is don't fall in love with a car. Deals are like subway trains. If you miss this one, another one will be by in 10 minutes.

[savtelly]

Most people aren’t negotiating because they’re just happy to be qualified for financing and feel like they have no leverage in my opinion. I’ve been buying in cash and I do feel more in control now.

Just bought a used car at auction after following you and caredge for a while and realizing that there really isn't that much reduced risk to buy from a dealer. Ended up paying about 60% of what similar cars are going for at dealers and the car is running fantastic!

[charmander]

it's funny how he say i don't want you to buy a car from a dealer. I don't want you to buy it from me. I praise him for his honesty but seriously he's in the business of selling cars. very valuable tips. thanks

[jefferywilson]

Dude you’re honest and that’s good I would buy a car from you.however your pissing off some of these mom and pop dealers.most car buyers especially the younger buyers don’t know the truth

[qwatson]

You don’t charge a doc feed??? Unreal! You are a rare dealer. Bless you!
