Used Car Week 2026

VINCUE Takes the Stage at Used Car Week 2026

Published On: October 21st, 2026Categories: Events

Buyers are shopping older, higher-mileage used cars, and they want proof before they sign.

On Thursday, November 19 at 10:00 AM PST, VINCUE President & Co-Founder Danny Zaslavsky joins a 30-minute panel at Used Car Week (UCW) 2026: “Why Should Customers Trust Your Used Cars?” The session is sponsored by SYCN Auto Logistics and runs on the Live Stage. UCW takes place November 16–19 at the Manchester Grand Hyatt in San Diego.

Inside the Session

Affordability and supply are pushing buyers toward older vehicles. The average vehicle on U.S. roads is now 12.8 years old, according to S&P Global Mobility. The older the car, the louder the reliability question.

This panel goes straight at it. Dealers, media, and technology leaders share the strategies and tactics they’ve used to ease buyer concerns and make inventory easier to trust. Attendees leave with ideas they can put to work right away to stand apart from competitors and grow both volume and retention.

The panel

  • Danny Zaslavsky, President, VINCUE
  • Jaden Abad, Used Car Director, Beaver Toyota (a VINCUE dealer)
  • Nick Zulovich, Senior Editor, Cherokee Media Group
  • Paul Brobson, CEO, Trusted Sale, Inc.

Where VINCUE fits

Trust starts with knowing what’s on your lot. VINCUE Protos Intelligence, the First AI Native Inventory Intelligence Platform, puts eleven AI agents on your inventory around the clock. They read more than 2,000 signals per VIN and deliver a ranked Morning Report, so your team knows every unit and what to do with it. Danny brings that inventory perspective to the stage.

Why we’re showing up

Dealers are the reason we exist, and every VINCUE product starts with a dealer problem. The best way to understand those problems is to be where dealers talk about them. We’re sponsoring Used Car Week because used car trust is one of the biggest conversations in retail right now, and we want to be part of it.

Our Dealers Can’t Stay Quiet on Google

Launched VINCUE a couple months ago for our dealership as we were previously on vAuto. We love the pricing, software, and the support team is engaging with a lot of new features coming. It was a GREAT decision to switch from vAuto to VINCUE and we are very happy with the new software and support team.

New to the VINCUE family, and I’m very impressed with the immediate support provided by the team. Charlie Basham has been a key factor in getting the dealership started on a great path with the VINCUE system. He has been very responsive to my questions and has made sure I can navigate the key reports and understand the process used. Cheyenne Currier has also been very responsive with merchandising uploads needed by the dealership. I look forward to working with the VINCUE Team in the future.

Was previously with another provider for 16 years but now have been with VINCUE for 6 months and I absolutely love it and would never go back to my old provider. Even if you’re not considering making any changes right now, this is one I would look into and you won’t regret it! What I realized is how behind the times my previous provider is and I didn’t even realize it until I learned about VINCUE!
