You found the used car or truck you want on Mojo Motors. Now what?

I’ve heard some horror stories of people driving hours to a dealership for the car of their dreams only to find out it isn’t available. I don’t want you to make the same mistake because it leaves shoppers angry and bitter while buying a used car or truck. All of this can be avoided by knowing these three things before calling a dealer. [keep reading]
Ryan Gosling is no stranger to picking movies where he plays mysterious stuntmen, ahem, Drive. In The Place Beyond the Pines, Gosling is Luke Glanton, a motorcycle stunt driver for a traveling fair. Before going to the next town, Glanton finds out he fathered a child the year before when he was spending time with a young waitress named Romina played by Eva Mendes. The film follows Glanton and the people around him in the days and decades after he quits the fair to stay near Romina and his baby Jason.
While riding his dirt bike in the woods, Glanton is lucky enough to meet Ben Mendelsohn’s character named Robin who offers Glanton a job at his isolated repair shop. Glanton accepts, knowing he needs to support his family. After his wages as a mechanic aren’t enough, Robin half-jokingly suggests they should rob banks. Robin then admits to a couple heists in the past. That’s all Glanton needs to hear.
After a few successful robberies, Robin wants to hide out but Glanton insists on hitting more banks. When Robin refuses and even ruins Glanton’s motorcycle to prevent him from continuing his robbing spree, Glanton threatens Robin with a gun. Without a partner, Glanton’s ability to rob banks is limited and during his last robbery, a young police officer named Avery Cross played by Bradley Cooper guns down the perp. [keep reading]

Why are there no ads?

Why does Mojo Motors focus on VDPs?
Less shoppers submit leads now than ever before because all the information they need is online. Increasing awareness on your store’s VDPs will increase sales. Here are some articles and resources why VDPs are more important than leads.
VDPs are vehicle detail pages where shoppers can find all the information about a particular car at your store. They can see your store’s address, phone number and send an email to your CRM. Shopper’s can also see a vehicle’s price, price history, Carfax report, details about engine type, interior color, etc and print out a Mojo discount voucher.
What is a Mojo Motors discount voucher?
If your store decides to offer a discount to Mojo members (which we do recommend), they’re more likely to show you a Mojo Motors discount voucher. This allows a customer to get the price they saw online for a particular car effectively reducing the stress of haggling for both you and the buyer.
Why haven’t I heard of you guys?
Car shoppers have heard of us because we target them where they shop and browse the web. Unless you’re actively shopping for a used car online, you won’t come across Mojo Motors. But the next time a customer walks into your store, ask them if they’ve used Mojo Motors while they’ve been shopping online.

Carfax is under fire from both the media and car dealerships. In March, ABC’s 20/20 “investigation revealed dozens of used cars with clean Carfaxes — even though the cars had been in accidents, and others had frame damage.” Then Automotive News reported 120 dealerships have teamed up to sue Carfax for $50 million citing the website of having a monopoly on vehicle history reports.
Paul Nadjarian, Founder and CEO of Mojo Motors had this to say about the lawsuit:
The best result for cars shoppers is to have easy and quick access to as much information as possible. Most dealers either use Carfax or AutoCheck. However, the exclusive deals Carfax has struck with third party website and certified programs does not allow dealers that use AutoCheck to provide history reports to cars shoppers on those sites – this is just plain wrong. This hurts customer and dealers. If a dealer has already purchased a vehicle history report, regardless if it is Carfax or AutoCheck, cars shoppers who find the dealer’s vehicle online should have access to the report. This is the best result for the customer and the dealer.
When you first click over to Mojo Motors, you see the most ‘Followed’ cars on the website. Think of ‘Follow’ as a popularity meter because the more ‘Followers,’ the more local shoppers want to know when the price drops and/or something like it is added to the website.
If you’re not familiar with ‘Following,’ here’s a quick lesson – when a shopper ‘Follows’ a car, they’re automatically set up for alerts when the price drops or it is sold.
