CarMax

They're probably $1,200-$1,500 more for a car than I think it should be listed for, but that's not a huge deal if they can give me a deal on the extended warranty (6 years, 70,000 miles bumper to bumper).

Just wondered if it was even worth my time to work the guy on that angle.

I bought my wife a van from Carmax. Great experience. Got the remaining factory warranty and the Carmax warranty. Think it was around 50K miles.

Great experience. Saved a ton of money on a van with under 10K miles. Shopped around for months and they were the cheapest by far.

I also got more than blue book for the POS I traded in.

i can only judge on old information(yrs ago) about them and its not good. used cars are themselves risky form any sort of dealer. public,auctions,used car scum salemen, etc it doesnt matter.

depending on what type, wear, manufacturer, time of year(just sold my jeep, they sell better in warmer climate), market, economy, area, supply/demand you get the price of said car. jeep/convertibles dont sale well in canada, but near a beach and much warmer price gos up.

i would deal with craigslist, ebay, cars.com etc. before carmax.

jerry cadorette a fellow puller ran numerous dealships at the same time, said to call around and tell each dealer that you are pricing car X and whats your best no BS price. they get in a bidding war and EVERYONE is dieing to make a sale. if your must have that car at carmax, get another "offer" form a local dealer and see what happens.

do your research and dont be scared to jew them down.

Bump for anymore leads on decent car lots (not necessarily Carmax).

The wife and I have been looking at a variety of used cars in the last month, but no one wants to negotiate. That would be fine if they weren't $1,000 or more above KBB.

Anyone know of anybody selling a cheaper SUV in the $5-7,000 range? Jeep Grand Cherokee, Jeep Liberty, Hyundai Santa Fe, etc.

Good lord son.

Buy a Ford Explorer before any of those mentioned.

Really? I've read positive reviews about all of them on Edmunds. Furthermore, several members of my wife's family have had Jeep products that have really lasted quite a while. Her dad's Jeep has 240,000 miles on it and is running like a champ.

Nothing wrong with a Sante Fe. Hyundai has come a long way. It's gonna be hard to find one in that price range, though. Not a newer one, at any rate.

I will never own another jeep, and I've had two. I can't recommend a liberty at all. I hated mine. If you do buy one, I have a panthers tire cover you can have. On the plus side, you an probably pick one up, cheap.

Look at Explorers. The market is flooded with them, and you can usually pick one up for a decent price.

    • Dan tends to attack one specific position group per offseason and the sprinkle others throughout the roster. He extended Moton, signed Hunt, Lewis, Nijman one offseason and then extended Brown and signed Wharton and Hunt and drafted Jackson next offseason. My guess is he attacks LB and Edge this offseason.    1. What do you do with Icky? Likely a scratch for next season and due a massive contract (if healthy) They will bring back Nijman and Christensen and draft a guy on Day 2 is my guess and hope one of them can fill the hole. 2. Coker has the talent for 2nd WR, but do you pay a guy who gets hurt that premium? I think hes your number 3 simply due to risk. Will the Panthers seek another vet or go surprisingly high in the draft? They will probably sign him more and longer than the RFA Tender to keep him happy and not break the bank in the process. Can see them getting a Vet in FA like Tutu Atwell or Hollywood Brown. Somebody with speed but also isn’t overly expensive. I think Horn and Tremayne stick around and unfortunately Legette. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Tremble released and a real TE in brought in, there is a good FA group this year. 3. Do you give X more feature time? Or cut bait now? I wouldn’t be surprised if they traded him but I’m willing to bet he gets one more year. Maybe Canales can find a role like Shenault had with McAdoo.  4. Planning the long term/short term on OL Like I said I think Christensen and Nijman are brought back for T with a Day 2 rookie and prayer something sticks. Moton, Hunt, Lewis return ofcourse. Probably resign Corbett as a safeguard at Center but I think they go C in the 1st or 2nd. Wouldn’t be shocked to see Morgan trade to the back end of the 1st to get a solid C and add picks. 5. How do you address LB? I think Rozeboom leaves. Hoping CJ Allen or Sonny Styles is still there is too big of a risk. They probably go get Kaden Elliss or Leo Chenal and pay good money for them. Maybe a guy on Day 3 for depth with Cherelus and Martin-Scott. Also think he takes a swing at Edge, wouldn’t be shocked to see Hendrickson or Oweh here.  6. Do you bank of Chuba bouncing back?    I think Chuba remains Chuba. There are some decent change of pace backs out there this year that will be cheap. Still developing Etienne and Brooks may be healthy. I think it’s Chuba and that crew maybe a veteran that’s not Dowdle. More like Deejay Dallas who was here already once.    I also think Dalton calls it and they get an upgrade at back up. Nobody that wouldn’t endanger Bryce’s job but somebody that isn’t 55 years old either.   
    • This is my answer. If I got board I would just do guest drop ins to obscure podcasts but would definitely collect the cash from Tepper.
