What’s the biggest mistake people make when buying a used car?
It’s not choosing the wrong model.
It’s not bad credit.
It’s walking in unprepared.

If you’ve ever felt that sinking regret after signing — or you’re about to shop for a car — this episode is your seatbelt.
Because people who walk… win.
