Whenever you need a vehicle to get you from point A to point B, you don’t always have to purchase a brand-new one. In fact, used vehicles are a great investment for many people looking for more affordable buying options. If you’re considering buying a used vehicle, consider getting one at the dealership.

It’s Been Serviced and Fully Inspected

When you purchase a vehicle from a dealership, you can be assured that they will do what’s best to ensure you get a quality vehicle. Every used vehicle will be inspected and serviced before it’s put on the sale lot. If you want to purchase a used vehicle from a private seller, you don’t know when it was last serviced or given a good inspection. With a dealership, you can rest assured that the used vehicle you are purchasing is already taken care of.

Larger Vehicle Selection

Another great benefit of investing in a used vehicle from a dealership is that you’ll have a wider selection of used vehicles to choose from. You can test drive multiple vehicles in one visit to know which one best fits your comfort and needs. When dealing with a private seller, they’re typically only selling one vehicle, so you don’t have any gauge of comparison when assessing it.

More Financing Options

When you decide to purchase a used vehicle from a dealership, it opens up the doors to various financing options to help fund the purchase of your vehicle. This can be ideal if you don’t have the cash upfront to purchase a used vehicle for your family. Typically, when you buy a car from a private seller, there aren’t many financing options available to you. The seller simply wants to get cash or a check for payment and be on their way.

Extended Warranty

When you purchase a used vehicle from a private seller, it usually has no warranty. When you buy a vehicle from a dealership, it typically comes with an extended pre-owned warranty. This will help to cover the replacement of parts that may become damaged within your first few years of vehicle ownership. It’s important to know that the extent of warranty coverage and its time frame will highly depend on the age and type of vehicle.
