DALLAS – Pep Boys has partnered with Caroffer.com, an online program that provides consumers a guaranteed cash offer for any vehicle they wish to sell, to expand the program into more markets.

Caroffer.com will extend a cash offer and pay for the vehicle immediately once the vehicle has been dropped off at the nearest participating Pep Boy’s location and its condition verified. Caroffer.com will extend a real offer and write a check for a vehicle within a day.

“We have been very pleased with the consumer response we’re experiencing,” said Bruce Thompson, CEO/Founder of caroffer.com. “It’s evident that consumers want and need a fast and hassle-free way to sell their vehicles. This year, we’ve seen unprecedented rapid depreciation of trucks and SUVs as well as many mid-to-large size cars as the price of gas has escalated over the last six months. That can be a hard pill to swallow for consumers who may have a different perception of what their vehicle is worth. Ultimately, we try to make a modest wholesale profit on high volume. Clearly, we are meeting a need because we are bidding thousands of vehicles per day and operating at maximum capacity.”
