The purchase of a pre-owned truck, SUV, car or a vehicles related buy is uniquely different than buying a new vehicle. Therefore, consider the following. There are 4 categories of places to purchase a used car, truck or SUV or vehicles. There are: first, a stand alone used car lot; second, a used car lot associated with a new car dealership; third, from a private party; and finally, one of the national rent-a-car companies selling inventory. Used car lots are portrayed often as 'sleazy' places to get a used vehicle. In some instances that can be true but the key to deciding whether to buy or not from a used car lot has to be determined by their reputation in the community. Check with others that have bought from them; check them out with the Chamber of Commerce; and check them out with the Better Business Bureau. Truck and car dealers can be an excellent place to make a purchase when looking for vehicles, trucks, cars or SUVs. Generally speaking, they have a reputation to uphold in the community and there is a reasonable expectation that the vehicle you purchase will not be a 'lemon'. Often the vehicles come with some kind of warranty should repairs be necessary. Getting a car from an individual who is advertising in the paper or online or even has a placard in their rear window has both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage - no marking the car up for the retailer. The disadvantage - you're not sure what you are getting. So, have the car inspected by a reputable garage. Consider buying from country-wide rental agency. They are constantly turning over vehicles and need to sell the old ones. They keep them maintained on a regular basis. Whether it relates to vehicles or a car or truck, the rent-a-car agency probably has solid vehicles at a 'fair' price.
