How Car Websites Like CarGurus, Autotrader, and TrueCar MAKE MONEY! 

All I want from a car search site is transparent pricing and accurate inventory.

From California. Merry Christmas to all of you. Thank you, for your dedication and for having such a beautiful father son relationship !

But the better question is: are the price ratings fairly accurate?

What I found interesting was since dealers partner with these various sites you can not use just one during your search. They might list “millions of cars” but due to a partnership you’ll find the same dealers listings coming up over and over during your search. Speaking with my local dealer they fully admitted they don’t even bother listing or updating these sites in todays market- the vehicle will be sold so fast so why bother. As mentioned it’s purely lead generation- they want your email and more importantly your phone number so they can spam you to visit them. Well I’m not stopping by if you don’t have the exact vehicle I want. The process needs to honor my selections regrading: color, trim, options, etc and put me in touch with a real person that has the actual vehicle I selected to buy. Maybe it works for people who are flexible but not for someone picky like me.

Like always great video’s guys 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I love your guys new car search. I am a UX Designer and was really impressed with how you guys did the car detail screen. It has everything you need to make a informed decision on buying a car and feels transparent and honest. Nice work guys!

Great Topic! It wasn't just clickbait.

How about infomation on complaints on the models. Like, statistical info on transmissions, engine or electrical issues.

How does a dealer get on your list of dealers that you post their inventory?

Hello seems like the way to go when buying used auto- certified w / no worries in daily travels😊

So how about doing True Buying of a Car. Cash first. 2022 WRX base for my area DFW. I do numbers under CarG, KBB, etc. Unfortunately, the consumer doesn't ask the OTD pricing and line items. Corona virus gives us the latitude to deal remotely, especially new cars. I'm finding deal in Wyoming and live in Dallas...Let me know your thoughts. Thx

I joined your YAA and while you claim it's free I tried to access your email templates but it says I have to upgrade to your premier membership to access them 🙁. BTW your videos are very informative and am hoping to get a Chevy Silverado order from the factory soon & negotiate the best deal I can get

It will nice if it’s a paid search and clean . Also u can do something with crypto payments .

Something that hasn’t been addressed is that every vehicle has unique pros and cons that influence it’s value. As an example, a potential buyer could look at 10 Jeeps, same model year, same options, etc. Their ultimate value will be determined by mileage, where the vehicle was domiciled, how it was used, modifications, upgrades, customizing, etc. All of those issues will determine the vehicles actual value, therefore KBB, Black Book, etc values are relative to what a customer would actually pay for the vehicle. Low milage used vehicles, in like new showroom condition, will likely sell for more than KBB and similar car value publications recommend.

Is the premium worth it?

All I want is the opportunity to have saved search where is there are no results, the search is run for you. When results come back, notify the user. Example: I have been looking for Volvo V60 Polestar in blue. If one pops up and I was notified, that would be amazing

Why is the G.Class later models steal call cost $30,000 with 200,000 miles on them

Hey Zach.. I have a question. When I got my Camry on the 11th, I traded a 2010 Corolla w/178k miles. They sent it to auction. I want to track down where that car ends up and what it sold for. I got 4k in trade. What is the best way to find that car.?

The problem with Car Gurus and similar sites is that the “market value” is reflective of past sales and not current conditions. For example many Tesla Model 3 and Y have market values of a new Tesla. The market value is not accounting for the $7500 tax rebate you get on a new Tesla, making the a new Tesla a better deal.

I know what I want to look at before I start my search. What I am looking for is price and a calculator to figure if it is in my budget, without talking to humans.

Something's up with the configuration of the YAA website. When I try to go there it does not load. But when I go through a VPN it does load. So you may not be aware of it but your server appears to be blocking a range of IP addresses of which mine is included.

Much better! Except for over 1 hour and 2O minutes - a video with 10 minutes of relevant information is excellent 👍 thank you!

Your site is wonky right now. I can't put in the year and make model at the same time. The information is erased so I either get the years I want with any car they have or the make and model for any year. I'll try again later.

The butt corn and polkadot train is leaving the station, c.f. my About. I want private party listings also. Such a pita to sift through Zuckerberg's marketplace.

#Zach is so handsome! Have a #MerryChristmas.
