Carvana Experiment

I programed my 2019 with 8k miles on their site for a quote on selling it. Ans. $33,300. Then I reversed it and asked to buy one. Ans. $39,000. This was probably with 0 miles I guess. Interesting.

Dealers will always buy low and sell high

I just didn't think there would be that much of a price difference. Nearly $6,000. Holy Moly.

Clear example of depreciation. We are always told about losing value as the car drives off of the lot..

They said mine was only worth $26,900 with 12K miles due to a $3,000 deduction for a rear-ended accident when new.
I was considering trading up to a 2020 Advance but, not with such a low trade-in.
