Contacting Dealers
How to reach out to dealers, request quotes, and schedule viewings.
Making Initial Contact
Every listing includes a 'Contact Dealer' button that opens a simple contact form.
Be specific about the vehicle you're interested in - include the stock number if available.
Mention your timeline for purchasing and any trade-in you might have.
- Include your phone number for faster responses
- Ask specific questions about the vehicle's condition and history
- Mention if you're pre-approved for financing
Requesting a Quote
Use the 'Request Quote' feature to get an official price quote from the dealer.
Quotes typically include the vehicle price, applicable fees, and available incentives.
Compare quotes from multiple dealers to ensure you're getting the best deal.
Scheduling a Viewing
Many dealers offer online appointment scheduling directly through the listing.
When scheduling, be flexible with your availability to get an appointment sooner.
Prepare a list of questions and things to inspect before your visit.
- Never send money or deposits before seeing the vehicle in person
- Be wary of dealers who won't let you inspect the vehicle thoroughly
Following Up
If you don't hear back within 24-48 hours, follow up with a phone call.
Keep records of all communications with dealers for reference.
Don't be afraid to negotiate - prices are often flexible, especially on older inventory.
