“There weren’t enough cars to sell for all the people that needed the cars,” Yoon advised Automobile Information. “And so when that happened, all the people that were like, ‘Well, if the new-car lot is empty, I’m going to go to the used-car lot,’ so they bought all the used cars as well and that inventory situation hasn’t really recovered completely.”

But come shop with us anyway. We’ll try to find you the car that will meet your budget.’ ”
