Ah yes. The car dealership. Everyone's favorite place to visit, right? Wait... not everyone visits car dealerships for fun?
In this episode, we explore the economics that allow car dealerships to function. Specifically, we'll discuss the background for why dealerships exist, how they're organized, what the business model(s) look like, how this has changed over the past 2 decades, how it could change going forward, and what this means for you the next time you go to buy or lease your next car.
And on this week's Craigslist Challenge, we see what family SUVs you can find in our Nation's Capital for around $20,000!
The Craigslist Challenge listing. A 2017 Toyota RAV4 LE FWD listed for $17,354 with 33k miles by an Acura dealer in the DC metro area: https://www.radleyacura.com/vehicle-details/used-2017-toyota-rav4-le-falls-church-va-id-40385350?utm_campaign=cars.com_deeplink&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=cars.com
