Why a Colorado Private Car Sale is Better

You can typically get a higher price for your car in the private market than they do from a Colorado dealership trade-in. That’s because dealerships need to make a spread: they buy low and sell high.

Unfortunately, selling your vehicle on the private market has always been a cumbersome process, in Colorado and throughout the US. Until now.
