Manheim Tucson and several franchise dealers from Southern Arizona raised over $30,000 for a dealer-only charity car auction to benefit a dropout prevention program.
The program, Youth on Their Own, helps homeless youths graduate from high school and pursue opportunities for self-sufficiency, according to Manheim.

Manheim Tucson received 35 vehicle donations from local dealers who supported the event. More than 250 dealers attended the auction, both in person and online. All funds from the sales of the vehicles, including buy fees, were donated to Youth on Their Own.
The Tucson operation has donated more than $110,000 to the non-profit in the past three years.
“The best long-term way to give back to the community is to ensure young people have access to as many opportunities as possible to succeed,” said Michael Cleveland, general manager of Manheim Tucson. “We’ve been supporting Youth on Their Own for years and we’re sure to continue doing this event in the future. Dealers from all across the region show up to make a difference in the lives of Arizona’s teenagers.”
The 2026 Conference of Automotive Remarketing convened with a mandate to involve a new constituency — fleet managers — and an updated mission to demonstrate unrealized value in de-fleeted vehicles.
From a Wall Street analyst's take on remarketing's key players to whether fleets need their own version of Carfax, CAR 2026's afternoon roundtables will answer key operational and industry questions.
The enhanced technology allows rental car operations, dealerships, and auctions to compare a vehicle’s condition at pickup and drop-off within the same rental or loaner record.
A panel at the 2026 Conference of Automotive Remarketing will examine how resale value is created across the vehicle lifecycle and which traditional remarketing practices still deliver ROI.
Smart operational and spec'ing decisions can dramatically improve both the total cost of ownership during use and the resale value when it's time to remarket day cabs.
How can vehicle-sourced performance data change the way fleets assess condition, time de-fleets, and set remarketing expectations? A seminar at the 2026 Conference of Automotive Remarketing (CAR) has answers.
