At MB Motors, every vehicle comes with a free Carfax report. We include it because we think transparency is the right way to do business, and buyers deserve to see a vehicle's history before they commit. But a Carfax is a starting point, not a guarantee — here's what it covers and what it misses.

The Toyota Tacoma is the best-holding used vehicle in America. It’s not even close.

That’s great for sellers, which means buyers need to be strategic about what they’re getting for the money.

The Tesla Model 3 is one of the most popular used EVs on the market right now — and for good reason. It’s fast, efficient, has a massive software feature set, and depreciates faster than most Teslas, making used examples more accessible than you might think. But buying a used Model 3 has some unique wrinkles that don’t apply to a used Camry.
