In Wheel Time / Entertaining Car Talk
Used Car Savvy with CarFax
The landscape of car buying has shifted dramatically in recent months, and our conversation with Carfax's Patrick Olson offers a roadmap through this evolving terrain. With potential tariffs looming and inventory dynamics changing, timing your purchase—whether new or used—has never been more strategic.
For those eyeing new vehicles, Patrick reveals a compelling window of opportunity. Dealers currently hold substantial pre-tariff inventory they're eager to move, creating favorable conditions for buyers ready to act. The numbers tell the story: March and early April saw sales double compared to last year as savvy consumers race to beat anticipated price increases.
The used market, particularly for sedans, presents extraordinary value propositions. While Americans continue their love affair with trucks and SUVs, gently-used Honda Civics, Accords, Chevy Malibus, and Toyota Camrys offer reliable, fuel-efficient transportation at remarkably accessible price points. Parents considering vehicles for teens should prioritize modern safety features—especially blind spot warning and rear cross-traffic alert systems, which dramatically reduce collision risks for inexperienced drivers.
We explore the ongoing debate surrounding extended warranties, rental car purchases (beware the infamous "rental aroma"), and the increasingly attractive used EV market. Patrick offers valuable perspectives on each, emphasizing how home charging capability remains the crucial prerequisite for electric vehicle ownership. For those meeting this criterion, used EVs can reduce weekly transportation costs to just $8—a compelling proposition for urban and suburban drivers.
Throughout our conversation, Patrick emphasizes the fundamental importance of comprehensive vehicle histories. Whether you're charmed by low mileage, attractive pricing, or specific features, understanding what a vehicle has experienced proves essential for confident purchasing decisions.
