The Problem
A 60,000-mile car that sat in humidity needs more work than a 90,000-mile highway cruiser. You can't see deferred maintenance.
P0420 might mean a loose gas cap. Or a dead catalytic converter. The seller knows. You're guessing.
They know every pressure tactic. You know you want the car. That's an expensive disadvantage.
The Solution
Punch in the VIN, sticker price, odometer reading, and any warning lights or issues you spotted on the test drive. DealJudge runs the numbers and tells you exactly what to do next.
