Vehicle Acquisition Network (VAN) is buy center software for franchise and independent auto dealerships, built for buying used cars directly from private sellers. Dealers use it to buy from consumers in their market before those cars reach the auction lane.
How it works:
- VAN scans 25+ online marketplaces for for-sale-by-owner vehicles and puts them in one dashboard, matched to your buy box (year, make, model, mileage) inside your territory.
- It filters out listings from other dealers, scam listings, and Do-Not-Call numbers, decodes each VIN, and adds live market valuation.
- Your buyer calls, texts, and emails sellers from inside VAN, and every conversation stays attached to the vehicle.
- One click pushes a car into vAuto, where your manager appraises it. CARFAX and AutoCheck reports run inside VAN.
- VAN runs inside VINCUE Buy Center Pro as VAN Mode, where VINCUE applies your buy plan to each private-seller car.
Plans:
- Professional ($1,695/month): the core platform plus an Acquisition Coach™, an experienced private-party buyer who meets with your team. Every plan includes one.
- VAN Accelerate™ ($2,495/month): adds automated text and email outreach, automated follow-up for unresponsive sellers, automatic replies to KBB ICO leads within minutes, and automatic responses to AccuTrade leads.
- VAN Managed Buyer™ ($5,995/month, 90-day initial term): VAN hires, trains, and manages a full-time buyer who works only for your store on sourcing, outreach, and negotiation. Your desk inspects, makes the final buy decision, and signs the check.
Listed prices are starting rates; final price depends on territory size and number of users. Software plans go live in about four days, and Canadian dealers are billed in CAD.
VAN was founded in 2013 by Tom Gregg and serves dealers in the United States, Puerto Rico, and Canada. To see VAN on your market, call 855-952-4949.

MESURgauge
MESUR®gauge and MESUR®gauge Plus significantly improve the functionality of force and torque measurement instruments as well as test stands. These software tools empower users to capture and visualize data in graphical formats, effectively illustrating the correlations between load and time, or load, travel, and time. With MESUR®gauge Plus, users benefit from enhanced features that permit control over Mark-10 motorized test stands, allowing for synchronized motion control alongside data collection. Both software packages come equipped with a variety of analytical tools that assist in evaluating test results, which include statistical analysis, straightforward data export options to Microsoft Excel, customizable reporting formats, and indicators for pass or fail outcomes. Users have the flexibility to customize their testing setups, which can be conveniently saved for later use, and establish specific parameters for initiating and concluding tests based on variables such as load, time, distance, or sample breakage. Additionally, these programs feature a large display for real-time tracking of load and travel measurements, complemented by a utility that enables users to configure select Mark-10 gauges directly from their computers. This integration of features not only streamlines the testing process but also enhances the overall user experience, making it simpler to perform comprehensive analyses. Ultimately, the software contributes to a more productive testing environment, encouraging efficient data management and insightful evaluation of results.

XbarR, XbarS, Individuals, n, p, u, and np charts require regular updates following their initial establishment, and it is crucial to identify and present any outliers separately to prevent them from affecting the established control limits. In addition to these charts, a variety of analytical tools can be employed, such as histograms, capability analysis (Cpk), scatter plots with regression fittings, Pareto charts, dot plots, box plots, multiple regression analysis, hypothesis testing, confidence intervals, and sample size calculations. It is also imperative to perform measurement system analysis (Gage R&R) that is suitable for both quantitative and binomial data, as well as to develop cause and effect diagrams, main effects plots, cusum charts, product capability evaluations, FMEA, and distribution calculators, all aimed at strengthening data-driven decision-making processes. Each of these analytical approaches plays a pivotal role in enhancing one's understanding of the data and its significance in terms of quality control and continual improvement efforts. By systematically employing these tools, organizations can better identify areas for enhancement and ensure that their quality initiatives are grounded in solid statistical foundations.
