As summer winds down and families prepare for a new school year, one thing always happens in the automotive market—demand for reliable used vehicles increases.
Whether it’s a student heading off to college, a new driver getting their first vehicle, or a family looking for an affordable second car, back-to-school season creates one of the busiest times of the year for pre-owned vehicle sales. And when demand goes up, prices often follow.

Why Used Car Prices Rise During Back-To-School Season
Every August and September, dealerships across the country experience an increase in shoppers looking for dependable transportation. With more buyers competing for the same inventory:
- Popular used vehicles sell quickly.
- Inventory becomes more limited.
- Replacement costs for dealerships increase.
- Market prices trend upward.
Waiting another few weeks could mean paying more for the same vehicle—or missing out on the one you’ve been eyeing.
Don’t Wait Until Inventory Is Gone
At Roberts Robinson Chevrolet GMC, we work hard to offer quality pre-owned vehicles at competitive prices. However, once a vehicle sells, replacing it at the same price isn’t always possible.
