What is the Vehicle Acquisition 20 Group?

The Vehicle Acquisition 20 Group is the only dealer program designed exclusively for General Managers, Sales Managers, and Acquisition Managers that believe there are better ways to source high-performing inventory for their dealership.

The group is built on NCM’s industry-leading facilitation capabilities, and supported by the cumulative knowledge, experience, and best practices of  dealers that are finding better ways and better sources to acquire inventory.

The Vehicle Acquisition 20 Group is governed by an executive committee of members and meets 3 times per year in person.

  • Targeted Expertise. Members focus on strategies, tools, and trends in inventory acquisition, including wholesale auctions, trade-ins, off-lease vehicles, and innovative sourcing methods like direct-to-consumer acquisitions.

  • Data-Driven Benchmarking. Members share acquisition metrics such as cost-to-market ratios, inventory turn rates, and gross profit per vehicle. This benchmarking helps identify opportunities for improvement and best practices in sourcing strategies.

  • Vendor Insights. Collaborate on evaluating inventory acquisition tools, including market data platforms, auction services, and trade-in tools, to optimize purchasing decisions.

  • Customized Solutions. Discuss and develop strategies for maintaining optimal inventory mix, managing market fluctuations, and addressing regional demand variances.

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.

Salida, CO

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!
