Those are usually the ones they sell after showing them off to dealership owners and personnel and for training...

when I was in sales the new 2002 Dodge Ram came out and they said the transmission was bulletproof..

SOOOOOOO I put the truck in first gear and ran it till the truck was screaming for mercy...and I said nope...transmission held

Every year we had a new mule to beat on and usually did so with glee..

to sum it up I would never buy one they are usually not well cared for...

Just checked a few and no prior owner with miles that is a giveaway or if registered in Michigan...

Over invoice for a used vehicle is listed as a "great deal." Pretty sure Car Gurus isn't getting added to my trusted advisors list.
Gar Gurus bases its resale on what the market is and on a new model they have to base it on actual sales that are new only for right now...

in a year or so they will be accurate on the used JT's this is the science of used cars...

people will buy a used car because is it is a good deal and they look at the sticker only of the new one...

I sold cars fo 25 years and it still baffles me today that it is still true.

Makes sense... So stay away from them, luckliy I already have mine, but a good lesson to have learned strictly verbally non the less.
