Drivers from Charlotte MI may want to visit Team One Chevy Buick GMC and browse our used truck selection. If you can't decide whether to buy a used truck, buying one used has many benefits.
Used trucks in Charlotte MI cost an average of 20 percent less than new trucks, which means you pay the truck off faster. This also equals lower loan amounts, lower interest per month, and lower down payments. Some dealers expect at least a 20 percent payment for a new vehicle compared to ten percent for a used vehicle. It also reduces the risk of getting upside down on your loan, meaning owing more than the value.
New vehicles depreciate the day they are driven off the lot and lose as much as 30 percent value their first two years of ownership. Buying used helps you avoid that sharp drop in depreciation, and you can check Kelly's Blue Book for used vehicle value. It makes sense you get lower insurance rates because the company pays less for claims. So even if a truck is under three years old, it makes a difference to the insurance provider.
Buying used also offers you a variety, so if you can't find a vehicle you like new, opt for the older version. For example, you may prefer the body style of an older GMC Sierra 1500 and Chevy Silverado 1500 that better suits your needs. Many dealers offer Certified Protection programs, which means the vehicle undergoes thorough inspections.
In many cases, a used vehicle offers more durability over the newer models, which have aluminum parts. You get a better idea of the truck's reliability before purchasing it because it has been on the road for several years. You can often get a detailed history, such as country of origin and engine size, using the vehicle's VIN (vehicle identification number).
