Frequently Asked Dealer Questions

Retail My Ride was created by a 37-year seasoned automotive professional and fellow consignment dealer with a long term vision that goes beyond just providing another business directory. Our efforts are laser-focused on creating a collaborative online community to bring sellers and consignment dealerships together; a platform where consignment can become the preferred selling option for millions of auto, RV and motorcycle owners, and a go-to source of quality inventory for participating dealers.

All licensed dealers that offer consignment services are invited to add a free Basic listing to our national directory.  We also offer a very affordable enhanced listing plan called Premium Unleaded, and a bulk consignment program designed to supercharge your vehicle sourcing efforts and put more quality consignment vehicles in your inventory.

We are the most targeted and cost-effective way to promote your consignment program and drive more private seller interactions to your dealership.  Join Now - Free
