After reading everyone's experience with the newest "Why you need to pay tons for little" product in the Autotrader arsenal.......I'm glad we decided against this one. I'm not into ranting online, however Autotrader and their continuous plundering of dealer traffic as well as "he who pays the most gets their cars found (sometimes)" techniques.:mad: continue to make me hate them.


Having Dealers advertise their nonsense for them only to drive traffic from our own websites to Autotrader helps us how?


Our hate/have to have relationship with Autotrader continues to be almost completely one sided with the ROI being continually the lowest. Autotrader's answer to ROI questions is classic......"Here's a sheet of paper you can have F&I give customers to check off what they used when they were looking for a car" really??? is this 1986????


These cats remain some of the biggest stick-up artist amongst the parasites we all get "sales calls" from daily. I'll save my CARFAX rant for a later post, but I love their "Ask your Dealer for your FREE? Carfax report" if anybody gets theirs for free please hook us up with your rep, we'd love to get the same deal..........that way we could spend more money with those blowers at Autotrader:rofl:
