Reasons to Buy a Used Model

Most people would say their incentive for looking at a used vehicle is due to a lower sticker price. While the price is certainly a major benefit of buying a used vehicle, it’s not the only advantage. Consider the value of a used vehicle over a new model. When you buy a brand-new vehicle, it starts to lose value as soon as you drive it off the lot. This lost value is known as depreciation. That model will continue to depreciate up to one-third of its value in the first year and 60 percent of the value in the first four or five years. A used vehicle will retain its remaining value for longer. This means you won’t pay more than what value the model has.

Because of the lower sticker price, used vehicles have a lower sales tax and generally have lower insurance premiums. You can find out more about a used vehicle as you read reviews by customers who have owned the same model that you are considering.

Shopping for a Used Vehicle

It’s a good idea to read reviews about used vehicles before you buy. You can look at sites like kbb.com to see what a model is worth. Kelley Blue Book is known for providing information about a wide variety of makes and models in excellent, good, and fair condition. This information lets you know that you’re paying a fair price for the used vehicle you want.

When you find a model that you’re interested in, you can look up information about how it ranks in reliability and total cost of ownership. You’ll see the average cost of repairs for many models, which will help you decide if the vehicle is a good investment.

If you want more peace of mind, you can shop for certified vehicles. We carry many certified Chevy models at our dealership that come with a warranty and other benefits. CPO models often qualify for like-new financing. They have gone through a strict inspection that not only includes mechanical parts but also considers the exterior and interior of the vehicle.
