It can be said that "everyone drives a used car". Once your new car tires hit the pavement and roll out with plates out of the new car dealership your car, truck or SUV suffers great depreciation in value. After all "someone" ( meaning you in this case) has to pay for the beautiful new automotive dealership , the lot and building and overhead never mind to mention taxes of all types and labor costs to that business that sold you the vehicle.
It is interesting to note that more than one wealthy auto dealership owner drive for their personal vehicles used off lease vehicles that they have purchased off their respective factory auctions of off lease or company driven vehicles. If it's good enough for them it should be for you as well. On top of that, in the case of newer pre-owned or driven vehicles many still sport and carry factory warranties - even for the second or even fifth owner. What the auto maker and warranty authorization claims people look at to assess coverage is miles / and or time limitations. That is assuming that the vehicle has been reasonably maintained under your care. More than one young person was shocked to learn that the sludge in their crankcase - which indicated oil driven for 2 years ( average driver 25,000 miles ) without an oil change invalidated their warranty when it came time to a catastrophic engine failure and a very hefty bill for replacement and installation of a new motor. As a car owner you can scream all you want and threaten the dealer / owner with legalities and threats of internet postings. In these cases you not they are liable. Yet the summary is if you choose a good car and maintain it according to the norms in the owner's manual in your glove box "you will be fine". One more important consideration where you purchase your vehicle is if the dealership can provide high quality after sales quick lane service and even collision repairs.
Yet in these modern times it is as easy as pie to check out vehicles. EBay is integrated with auto reporting agencies. Your local dealers will often do the service and provide the search or searches at little or no charge for you as a proof source of the vehicle if you are seriously and honestly considering purchasing said vehicle or even vehicles. Just don't be abusive of these fine people if they are honestly trying to help you out.
Yet the beauty of this system is what used to be privileged information in the auto industry and for the automotive trade's primary use only is available to most consumers. Commercial systems have been set up that are easy to use for anyone with a home PC computer and a means of payment. Payment is simple in most cases - a standard credit card or Paypal will suffice.
At the end of the day for most auto and truck buyers it's about getting reliable transportation either for their family or as part of the requirements of their job and family income. Hence when out car or truck shopping it never hurts to be both on the conservative side and also drive home the best deal and overall value. At the end of the day, and at the end of the road it is as simple as that.
