Don’t make this mistake buying a used car!

[The_real_Matheny]

I have a sales manager, once laugh in my face and say nobody uses Black book anymore. Let’s just say I don’t buy anything from the dealership anymore.

If you’re at a dealership you are over paying.

Step 1: Don't buy an F-150 from 2018-2023 if you don't want to deal with your 10 speed exploding.

This video is an advertisement for their paid service. You can’t do anything unless you pay them. 💰

I noticed that dealerships are paying top dollar for used vehicles so negotiation is kind of fruitless these days.

Thanks for always making these shorts and reminding us about these tips

[apivovarov]

buy for 24, 000 and sell for 19, 900 . quite a large slip….

[reyvr]

Well 24k on the black book is the trade in value not the retail value

[joebeta]

When buying a car, people say, "You have to negotiate." How?? Negotiate what? I've got nothing to negotiate to peak the interest of the salesman.

[Repackrider]

The real question is what “percentage” does the buyer need to make if they are going to re-sell for a profit based on the Black Book average?

[johnfeliciano]

Most of the time it’s JD Power and they go with what banks say because they are the ones that work with everyone (I work at a super high volume store)

These days if you're leasing a car period, you overpayed.

[brincesspavis]

kelley blue book is also another good alternative

[peterdaniel]

Hey Zach, why don’t you suggest to people that they should figure out if they’re being stupid with their money as well? $24, 000 for a six-year-old truck with 85, 000 miles on it and there are literally thousands if not tens of thousands of these for saleat the same time?

[CarlosMartinez-orsg]

The way I look at it if it’s been in the market for longer than 15-20 days then it’s probably not a great price otherwise someone else would’ve bought it already

[sinister]

An even easier way is if you are looking at used cars the price will be too high. You are always getting screwed by dealers, so always negotiate.

I wonder if these tools are available without the $39.95/month subscription.

[JuniorJocker]

I wouldnt use carmax for sell value they will undervalue your car when buying and over value when selling

[TeXasDadBod]

Bro, this is just an ad advertisement for car edge. You have to have a subscription to use it. You’re just as bad as the dealership.

I'm a bit disappointed in this advice. Accepting 24k as "reasonable", when that's their asking price? Why not tell us to start negotiating up from the trade-in value, not down from their asking price?
