Consumer Reports is a nonprofit organization that anonymously purchases every car it tests. Over the past 90 years, we’ve learned a thing or two. Ask us anything about the car-buying process.

The ‘Four Square’ is one of the most common sales tactics that car dealerships use to get you into your next car. It starts simple, but usually ends with a ridiculously high monthly payment. Hi, I’m Mike Quincy, and I’ve purchased more than 180 cars for Consumer Reports. And my colleague Mike Crossen worked at a car dealership for 20 years before joining the CR team. We’d love to hear your questions about navigating the car-buying process.
