You’ve got your heart set on a particular Toyota but you know you don’t have it in your budget to buy a new one. Maybe it’s a second car for commuting to work, or one for a recent driver’s ed graduate where you don’t want to invest a lot of money. Regardless of the reason, you want a quality used Toyota or other popular make and model that you can rely on, and know it was a good investment. You may be wondering if you can trust a used vehicle like you can a new one, and you may have even heard some negative comments about buying used.
Sure, there are always a few rough ones on the market. And it might be true that some sellers ask too much for their older cars. Read on to debunk the top 5 myths about used cars in Anderson, especially from a Certified Pre-Owned Toyota dealership like Ralph Hayes Toyota.
“You overpay for used cars at a dealership”
Nothing could be further from the truth. When you compare privately-listed used vehicles in Anderson at Ralph Hayes Toyota, you’ll see that our pricing is quite competitive. We can do that because we buy from wholesale dealer sources not available to the public. What’s more is that we inspect our pre-owned cars thoroughly and offer a warranty to assure you of each vehicle’s quality, which is more than a private seller can do.
“Buying a used car is risky”
While it’s true that you are buying a vehicle that someone else has put miles on, we take the risk out of buying a used car Anderson. Our factory-trained technicians inspect and certify each pre-owned vehicle so you can be comfortable buying one of our used cars.
“You can’t finance a used car”
Our finance managers get you connected with major banks and lenders to find you the right terms for your car loan, whether you’re buying a new car or a pre-owned vehicle. We are able to get your financing done whether you have good credit, bad credit, or no credit, AND we’ll find you the best rates and loan terms possible for your purchase.
“I’ll have to fork out money right away for maintenance and repairs”
When you buy a used car in Anderson from a reputable dealer such as Ralph Hayes Toyota, this simply isn’t the case. When we inspect, recondition, and certify our used cars, we perform any routine maintenance that’s due. If repairs are needed, they are performed before we even advertise the car for sale.
“There’s always hidden fees”
At Ralph Hayes Toyota, we never hide any costs. We openly show you exactly what you’ll pay and offer you value-added extras but we never hide fees. You may decide to buy extra insurance or extended warranties from us but we will always disclose the cost of the product along with the terms. We know not everybody is in the market for a new car.
