The reason there are no used cars for sale is that dealers do not offer a decent trade-in for your old car.
OH!!! They sell them for big bucks, but they don’t give you squat for your trade -in.

Exactly. Cars last a long time these days and when you bring your car in and the dealer acts like he’s doing you a favor for taking your trade, you reevaluate and decide to keep it for another year. After a couple more years, its paid off and then you get used to not making that payment and suddenly, your old car looks really good.
Until the A/C dies.
The people who get the best deals know two things; what the new car cost the dealer and what they can expect the dealer to sell their old car for. I knew the price that the dealer paid for my wife’s minivan and I got it for $4500 off the list. No trade in, just cash down.
