we always knew there had to be a better way to buy used cars. one that would make the process easy and fun. so we created carmax, and we've been changing the way america buys cars since we opened our first store in richmond, virginia in 1993. through hard work and dedication, we've grown from that one store in richmond to more than 150 stores across the country. we are selling almost 600,000 vehicles a year. and the news is buzzing with stories about carmax, the experience we offer our customers, and the work environment we provide for our associates. in fact, we know our associates are fundamental to our success and are the key to our future growth. in fact, carmax is listed on the fortune® 500 list, and we've been named one of fortune's "100 best companies to work for" 11 years running. we're also named as one of training magazine's top training 125 year after year. in 2015, we were also recognized by great place to work® and fortune as one of the 50 best workplaces for diversity
