Here at our Fruitland, ID Chevy, Buick, and GMC dealership, we strive to make shopping for your next car a streamlined and simple experience. However, a lot of folks find that shopping for a used car raises a lot of critical questions that require an answer before they feel confident making a purchase. Fortunately, as a used car dealer serving drivers from Nampa to Boise, we're always eager to help our guests understand their used car shopping options so that they can make the best decisions for their budget and needs.
Why should I buy a used car?
Obviously, a lot of drivers will tell you that savings are the best reason to buy a used car, but tha'ts just a fraction of the advantages these pre-owned models offer. In addition, used vehicles are often more affordable to insure in the long run, and they may even afford you access to premium features that you couldn't typically afford on a brand-new model.
What's the difference between a used vehicle and a certified pre-owned car?
In most cases, used cars are sold "as is", but a great deal more is done to ensure the overall quality of a CPO vehicle. Most CPO models undergo a thorough inspection by a certified technician and a full CARFAX® vehicle history report before they can be certified. Once they earn that CPO status, most come with a manufacturer-backed warranty and many other perks that add value to the vehicle. For these reasons, they're often slightly pricier than conventional used cars, but still more affordable overall than most new models.
