About Us

Ahoy, matey!

I’m Josh Barlowe, the Used Car Pirate, and I’m here to share my treasure trove of used car knowledge with you!

For decades, I’ve sailed the seas of the used car world, flipping cars, hauling cars, and even repossessing them. I started out in the rough waters of wholesale car auctions – government auctions, online auctions, you name it – and I learned how to navigate those treacherous currents to snag the best deals.

Eventually, I became a successful used car dealer, mastering the art of buying low and selling high. Now, I’m here to share my hard-earned wisdom with you.

Here’s what I offer on The Used Car Pirate blog:

  • Wholesale Auction Guides: I’ll teach you the secrets of wholesale auctions, from finding the hidden gems to avoiding the shipwrecks.
  • Online Car Auctions: Learn how to conquer the digital seas of online car auctions and claim your prize.
  • Becoming a Used Car Dealer: Want to start your own dealership? I’ll guide you through every step of the journey.
  • Selling Used Cars for Profit: Discover the strategies I used to sell cars for a hefty profit.
  • Flipping Auction Cars: I’ll reveal my techniques for buying low and selling high, so you can maximize your doubloons.

Why trust me, the Used Car Pirate?

  • Expert Knowledge: I’ve spent decades in the trenches, so I know the used car business inside and out.
  • Practical Tips: No fluff here! I provide actionable advice you can use right away to start making money.
  • Community: Join a crew of fellow car enthusiasts and share your own tales of adventure.
  • Regular Updates: Stay ahead of the curve with the latest market trends and auction listings.

So come aboard, me hearties, and let’s set sail for a profitable voyage in the used car world!
