Plus, I can't stand to negotiate with car dealerships... give me a price, and I'll take it or leave it.
I've not purchased from CarMax but did recently sell them two vehicles in less than two weeks. Did very well on both cars and was in and out of there in less than two hours each time. Probably the best experience buying/selling a car I've ever had. Other dealers could learn a lot form the CarMax business model. I wouldn't hesitate to check with them for a good used vehicle but thankfully we are set for the foreseeable future.
