The mobile version lets you find new and used cars for sale by zip code with prices and click to call phone numbers. You can also lookup the value of any used car made since 1989. Those features worked well, however digging deeper in the site revealed a lot of non-functioning links.

That’s just stupid. Agree. I get this with at least 8 of 10 sites when I am trying to view or download their mobile site/app. My favorite is the ones that actaully say "load this page in your mobile browser to download." So, its not a preference, its a total screwup, and half the time I end up hacking about and sideloading just to get on with it. > “if the user is on a device with a full browser or using Opera Mini of course they want the full version.” From expert users sometimes even.
