Congratulations on your 2017 Ford Pickup!

As for TrueCar (I assume that's what you meant, as "TruCar" is a company in India, that doesn't really exist yet), I wouldn't recommend their stock. Their IPO went off at about $9/share if I remember correct and their business model fizzled and never caught on. Their stock has been under $3 for while.
You have a different idea of what a car geek is. TrueCar was a good company to show what people have actually paid for cars. I have never purchased thru them as I could always beat their best deals.
