The oldest on their website (for my city and all nearby ones) is an 05. Maybe something will work out.

I talked to JD Byrider and they don't sell trade ins to the public. They all go to auction. Found out where they are sent. The auction doesn't sell to the public either . So I see 2 options.

1. Give up on the car
2. Find out when it is going to be auctioned (the auction website says what cars go on what day). Talk to the buyer of the car in the parking lot and try to buy from them.

I did some looking and found 1 or 2 potential other cars in Kentucky/Tennessee area.

I went for a non-boat tail personal best from my Mom's house. Got 45 mpg with EOffC coasting most of the trip. Not bad for a pretty much stock car. I believe my PB with the tail and rear wheel skirts was 50 mpg.
