3 Reasons to Buy a Used Car

Your car or truck is on its way out. You’re worried whether it’s even going to make it until tomorrow. The time has officially come for you to purchase a vehicle upgrade. However, instead of heading straight for the dealership, let our staff at Joe’s Auto Sales East give you three reasons why you may want to buy a used car.

1. Lower purchase price

It’s no secret that a used car is going to cost less than the new version of the same model. So if you’re wanting to minimize your total purchase price or even your monthly payments, buy a used car.

2. Reduced insurance rates

According to Bankrate, car insurance is based on the value of the car. Therefore, a used car has less value than a newer version, therefore making its insurance cost less.

3. Less depreciation

The moment a new car leaves the dealership it loses value. You experience an extreme depreciation even hours after owning that vehicle. When you buy used, on the other hand, the car depreciates at a less rapid rate. That way, if you ever decided to sell it or trade it in, you’re more likely to retain a portion of the car’s original monetary value. One additional perk is that you can choose fantastic local used car dealers like Joe’s Auto Sales East. Local dealerships like ours often provide superior customer service and flexible financing options you can’t find at the national brand-name dealerships. So if you aren’t a fan of “the man,” come to Joe’s. Joe’s Auto Sales East is located right off Pendleton Pike in Indianapolis, IN. Our inventory includes cars, motorcycles, minivans, trucks, SUVs, and more. We can help you find a reliable vehicle that fits your budget. To find out more, contact us at (317) 405-8545, or stop by our Indy location.   photo credit: public domain via pixabay
