BROOMFIELD, Colo. -

DealersLink recently partnered with Fox Rent A Car to offer direct access to off-lease inventory, meaning members of DealersLink can now tap straight into to Fox’s pre-auction inventory streams. 

Executives also highlighted DealersLink members can receive preferred pricing from Fox Rent A Car. Members also can obtain the most current nationwide inventory list — which is updated hourly — and can submit buy bids directly to Fox through the DealersLink marketplace. 

Fox Rent A Car vice president of fleet Jerame Jackson said that the company’s inventory often requires less than $500 on average for reconditioning cost, increasing speed to the front line and decreasing acquisition cost.

Jackson believes the partnership between Fox and DealersLink caters to progressive, online-oriented automotive dealers.

“I am very excited about our relationship with DealersLink and our ability to sell direct to DealersLink members,” Jackson said. “I’ve had nothing but positive experiences dealing with the top notch dealer base on DealersLink.”

DealersLink vice president of sales Travis Wise explained what the latest company move means for dealers.

“We’re constantly finding ways to add inventory to the DealersLink marketplace that is available nowhere else, and help our dealer members increase their retail profits and reduce their wholesale losses,” Wise said.

“We’re excited that this partnership will give another strategic advantage to Fox, DealersLink and most importantly all of our dealer members,” he went on to say.
