Used Cars! What a quagmire! Every fraught transaction can leave you feeling like “I got screwed!” And it can feel like the wild Wild West with bandits around every corner, trying to pawn lemons to the uninformed. Steven has a long conversation with Ian Bishop, who has an insider’s perspective on how this industry really works. He tells us how to maximize trade-ins, when to get rid of your car, how to consider future payments, and even some tips on which 3rd row SUV is a particular GET right now! Listen to Ian and Get Savvy!
