YOUR CAR BUYING GUIDE
Shopping for a vehicle can be incredibly stressful. Do you want new or used? Financing or pay upfront? What size, make, model, color? There are so many decisions to be made about this major purchase.
we want to make this process not only easy, but enjoyable. Here is our step by step guide to finding your perfect vehicle.
1. What kind of vehicle are you searching for?
Are you looking for a car? Truck? SUV? Van? Before you get into the specifics of brands, you need to know what general type of vehicle will suit your needs. If you are looking for something powerful to pull your boat, try something like the 2015 Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn.If you need something that gets great gas mileage, take the 2017 Toyota Corolla SE for a spin.
2. New vs. Used
Most of this decision comes down to your budget. While some people prefer to buy brand new, you often save money without sacrificing quality by going with a pre-owned vehicle. Nowadays, most pre-owned vehicles are still under warranty or you are able to purchase a warranty right at the dealership! Even if you are set on buying new, remember that pre-owned dealerships often get current year inventory. For example, we currently have over 20 vehicles that are 2017 or newer!
3. Financing or Buying outright?
This is another decision that depends heavily on your budget. Most people cannot afford to pay the full cost of a vehicle upfront. And while paying upfront definitely has it's advantages, financing a vehicle can be beneficial as well. By financing your vehicle, you can help build your credit and you often have a larger selection of vehicles to choose from than you would if you paid the full cost at once. Even first time buyers can get approved for auto financing. We work with over 30 different lenders and our fantastic finance manager does a great job of trying everything to get you an approval. Don't let the fear of being denied stop you from trying if you are considering financing a car.
4. What's your preferred make and model?
Everyone usually has a preference when it comes to car brands. Some people refuse to buy foreign while others have a strong bias toward Japanese cars. One person may say they'll never buy a Ford, while another has only ever owned Ford vehicles. It all comes down to your personal preference. This can either make the process very easy or very difficult for you. Sometimes stepping out of your comfort zone leads to you finding your perfect vehicle!
