One of the reasons we’re pumped to have our guests joining us today is because it might finally be time for you to buy a car! Supply chains were snarled during the pandemic leading to auto values actually increasing pretty much across the board. It was a terrible time to buy a car – prices weren’t depreciating, they were appreciating! But regardless of the macrotrends, cars are expensive, transportation is a massive line item on most American’s budgets, and here to talk to us about how you can spend less on that car is Ray and Zach Shefska, the founders of CarEdge. CarEdge is a customer-centric buyers agent that gets you the best deal possible, and the founders are going to share their secrets on how you can pay the least for your new ride. Combined they have over 40 years of experience in the car business and we’re going to discuss the questions to ask dealerships, the fees to push back on, and timing it just right to ensure you snag the biggest discount.
