Locating and Reconditioning the Cars
We source our cars through Dealer Wholesale auctions that carry cars from banks, dealerships that are lease returns, or fleet reduction inventory. These cars will be 2018 or newer and should not cost more than $20,000.00. Each car undergoes a complete inspection to ensure there are no major mechanical issues, and in some cases, they still have the factory warranty attached.
Car Inspections and Reconditioning
Each car will undergo a 32-point inspection and will receive new brakes, a fresh oil change, and complete detailing. A fully installed alarm system with a GPS locator will also be added to ensure the protection of the recipient. We make sure the car has an active extended warranty; if not, we will provide a 1-year engine and transmission warranty, which includes a full year of free oil changes.
Comprehensive Cost Breakdown
We provide full coverage car insurance for the first year of operation. State taxes and DMV license and registration fees are paid upon delivery to the recipient. Each car is titled and registered in the recipient’s name.
