Most dealerships also keep their inventory of both new and used cars on their websites ( some Lexus dealers, unfortunately, don't ), although dealerships differ greatly in how well they keep their websites and inventories up.

Why charge a fee, especially if we are here on CAR CHAT to help people and give free advice?
I never do.

My Dad recently used it, and was very pleased with the results (he was shopping for an Odyssey). I don't know, I got my van the old fashioned way.

A forum specific to the car you're interested in is also usually good.
