The Benefits Of Buying A New Vehicle

Who doesn’t love the new car smell? Here are some of the benefits to buying a brand new vehicle over a used one.

Get Exactly What You Want

One of the great things about buying a new vehicle is that you can order exactly what you want. From colors and packages, to engine options and transmission choices, new vehicles can be ordered from the manufacturer.

Enjoy Warranty Coverage

New vehicles come with a bumper to bumper warranty that offers total peace of mind.

You Can Lease a New Vehicle

New vehicles can be leased. This benefit allows you to drive the car of your dreams while enjoying a lower monthly payment than financing the same vehicle.

Better Efficiency

Because of the ever tightening federal fuel economy requirements, newer vehicles often feature higher efficiency than used vehicles with older, thirstier engines.

Enjoy the Latest Safety Features

Newer vehicles often feature state of the art driver assist and safety features than older vehicles that were made before this technology was offered.

The Benefits Of Buying Used

Used vehicles can be outstanding decisions that can save you thousands while offering years of satisfaction. Here are a rw of the benefits to buying a used car:

Lower Prices

The main reason that many shoppers opt for a used vehicle is the savings. Used vehicles can lose about 40% of their value within the first five years on the road. This allows a prospective car buyer to enjoy incredible savings.

Less Depreciation

Because a new vehicle takes the bulk of its depreciation within its first five years on the road, buying a used vehicle allows you to hold on to its value for longer. This is also great when it comes to car loans. Because a used car’s depreciation doesn’t drop as fast as a new vehicle, this allows you to trade or sell the vehicle without having to lose large amounts of money due to depreciation.

Certified Pre-Owned

Buying certified pre-owned allows you to enjoy the peace of mind that comes from a thoroughly vetted used vehicle from a certified mechanic. Each Ford CPO vehicle has surpassed a 172 point inspection and is less than six years old.
