Vroom experience... it was good.

Hey guys, I haven't seen much on here about this, so I figured I'd share my experience. I had a 2019 F250 for about a year. Back in May my wife looked up the trade value on it. Prices were starting to peak around then it seemed. She then looked up a straight sale value through Carvana, KBB, Vroom and others. Long story, but it turns out Vroom had the best offer. We started the paperwork, and a few weeks later had a direct deposit from them for well over sticker price (I bought the truck at just over a year old with 26k miles). It was pretty painless, but there is a bit of a pucker factor when they take your truck and you have to wait 2-3 days for that direct deposit. The hauler driver said the truck was going straight to an auction in PA. I'm not sure how they can make money doing that, but I really don't care. It paid for almost all of my new 2022. I'm in no rush for the truck, so whatever.

I know people are looking at the current values of their trucks, and I can say that this was a painless route that gave us the best offer of KBB, Carvana, private sales, MANY dealer offers, etc. Just my .02. Good luck.

Vrooom offered me 51. Carvanna 43 and the locals 46. When that time comes, I may do the Vroom as well.

I have seen them but used KBB with a local dealer to buy my Wrangler from me. They gave me what KBB stated for the condition that was input into the system. It was fairly painless as well. Did they do at least a BOS on the spot? It would not leave my drive without one and legal jargon stating it would be forthcoming. Even then I have some reservations.
