5. You can hedge your bets but a car is worth what somebody is willing to pay for it

The way car buying and selling is done now a days is mostly controlled by car dealerships.
Try looking for a used car on Autotrader.. very few if no private sales. People don't want the hassle of putting an ad out and playing the game.. Just go to the dealer, let him rape you on the price of your "pre owned" vehicle and then rape you on the price of the new one.
Me? I buy a year to two year old car when I need one and let the other guy take the depreciation hit. It's a pain to find a good used car from a private seller.
And yes I buy from the list you provided. All good autos that will give you thousands if not hundreds of thousands of worry free relatively inexpensive miles.. My 2013 Honda civic just needed a battery and tires, nothing else.YMMV, works for me
