Those spots get bought well in advance, although this couldn't have been a sudden realization.

If only Carvana would vanish from the Earth next...

I would never buy a car sight unseen, unless of course if it was new. Maybe the youths have realized buying a used car on-line is not like buying a used iphone. Or maybe they stopped buying cars.

Why? They have paid me well for the cars I sold them.

Of course, after they bought a very low mileage Audi Q5 I've been getting daily emails about older and higher mileage Q5s they want me to buy.

Apparently nobody there has realized that if I still wanted one, I would've simply kept the one I had.

You're in their system under Q5. Unsubscribe.

Maybe I should look at a few of their Challengers? I'd rather look at emails with pictures of those.
