About CarDealership.com — Helping Americans Find the Right Dealer & Save Thousands
CarDealership.com is a free, independent car-buying resource that connects car shoppers with trusted dealerships and top pricing platforms across all 50 states. We don’t sell cars — we help you find the best deal.
Our Mission
Buying a car is one of the most important financial decisions Americans make, yet the process is often frustrating, opaque, and intimidating. Dealers have more information than buyers, pricing varies wildly between locations, and the sheer number of options — brands, models, conditions, financing terms — can paralyze even experienced shoppers. CarDealership.com exists to level that playing field.
We believe every car buyer deserves access to transparent information, competitive pricing, and a stress-free shopping experience. Our platform organizes over 50,000 dealerships into a searchable directory, connects shoppers with multiple pricing platforms so they can compare quotes, and provides the educational content buyers need to make confident decisions. Everything we offer is completely free to use.
How We Help Car Buyers
Three tools that give you the upper hand when shopping for a vehicle.
Dealer Directory
Search dealerships by brand, type, or location. Our directory covers 24 major brands, four dealer types, and all 50 states — making it easy to identify reputable dealers near you before you visit.
Price Comparison
Our Find My Car tool connects you with top platforms like CarGurus, TrueCar, and Edmunds where dealers compete on price. Buyers who compare save an average of $3,200.
Buyer Education
From understanding CPO warranties to navigating EV tax credits, our guides help you make informed decisions about the biggest purchase you’ll make this year.
How CarDealership.com Makes Money
We believe in full transparency about our business model. CarDealership.com is a free service for car buyers — you will never pay us anything. We earn revenue through affiliate partnerships with car-shopping platforms like CarGurus, TrueCar, Edmunds, Cars.com, AutoTrader, and Kelley Blue Book. When you use our Find My Car tool and click through to one of these platforms, we may earn a referral fee.
This model aligns our interests with yours: we only succeed when we connect you with platforms you actually find useful. We never sell your personal information, and our directory recommendations are not influenced by which platforms pay us the highest commission. Our goal is to be the most helpful car-buying resource on the internet — because that’s what keeps people coming back and what makes our business sustainable long-term.
