Commercial vehicle acquisition

The right vehicles for your business.
Without the search.

Simplified Auto helps businesses select, source, negotiate and coordinate vehicle acquisitions across Southern California—from one replacement unit to a multi-vehicle requirement.

Custom pricingSingle or multiple vehiclesNew, used or factory order

Built around the requirement

Your business needs vehicles. It doesn’t need another purchasing department.

Vehicle selection, dealership calls, availability checks, quote comparisons, upfit planning and transaction coordination can pull owners and employees away from their actual work.

Give that workload to someone who understands both the vehicle and the dealership transaction.

01

One vehicle

A replacement truck, van, passenger vehicle or executive vehicle.

02

Several units

Growing teams, branch expansion or a coordinated multi-unit purchase.

03

Recurring needs

An acquisition partner for businesses that add or replace vehicles over time.

04

Upfit-dependent vehicles

Vehicles that must align with storage, equipment or graphics requirements.

Acquisition process

Five decisions from requirement to transaction.

The business approves the vehicle and purchases it from the selected dealer. Simplified Auto coordinates much of the work in between.

01

Define the need

Use case, quantity, budget, timeline, equipment and graphics requirements.

02

Build the plan

Identify suitable vehicle types, specifications and an acquisition approach.

03

Source and negotiate

Work dealership availability, applicable programs, pricing and comparisons.

04

Approve the opportunity

Your business decides which vehicle and transaction to move forward with.

05

Coordinate completion

Align dealer paperwork, vendor sequencing and dealer or third-party logistics.

Why not call one dealer?

A dealer starts with its inventory. We start with your requirement.

A dealer’s fleet department represents its store, available vehicles and transaction. It can be an important part of the process.

Explore vehicle acquisition

Simplified Auto helps the business compare the right vehicle, specification, availability, dealership opportunity and upfit path across more than one source when appropriate.

The value is acquisition expertise and one point of coordination—not an attack on dealerships or a guarantee that every transaction beats direct dealer pricing.

Experience behind the process

Automotive retail experience applied to business purchasing.

Simplified Auto was founded by a former dealership General Manager with nearly a decade of automotive retail experience across inventory, acquisition, pricing, negotiation and transaction structure.

  • Work vans, pickups and service vehicles
  • Passenger and executive vehicles
  • Replacement and multi-unit acquisitions
  • Factory-order and specialty requirements
  • Commercial pricing opportunities
  • Upfit and graphics coordination

Commercial FAQ

Direct answers before the first call.

Do you manage fleets?

No. Simplified Auto currently focuses on planning and acquiring vehicles rather than ongoing fleet management, maintenance, registration, driver or telematics services.

Can you help with one vehicle?

Yes. The service can support a single business vehicle, several units, replacement purchases or recurring acquisition needs. There is no invented minimum fleet size.

Do you work with dealer fleet departments?

Yes. Dealer commercial and fleet departments can be important sources. Simplified Auto begins with the business requirement and can compare appropriate vehicle and dealership opportunities rather than representing one store’s inventory.

Do you provide financing?

No. Financing is provided by a lender. We can help review transaction structures and coordinate the acquisition process.

Do you drive or transport vehicles?

No. Simplified Auto never drives or transports client vehicles. Dealer delivery or appropriate third-party logistics may be coordinated when needed.
