They’re More Affordable
When you aren’t used to auto expenses, it can be difficult to determine what you can afford. By buying a used vehicle, you can certainly help keep the costs down. Used vehicles traditionally cost less than new vehicles.
Their Added Costs are Less
When budgeting for your first vehicle, it’s also important to keep auto expenses in mind. Auto insurance and registration costs can both be big costs associated with owning a vehicle. These are typically more affordable when you buy a more affordable vehicle.
You’ll Have More Options
When you don’t want to spend too much on a vehicle, you may find yourself faced with limited options. However, there are pre-owned vehicles of all prices – in all makes and models too. By shopping used, you’re more likely to find exactly what you need.
They Don’t Depreciate as Quickly
Oftentimes, drivers don’t keep their first vehicle for long. They may find themselves with new demands out of a vehicle as they start their careers, move, or build a family. If you may want to trade in your vehicle sooner than later, buying a used vehicle can help.
When you buy a new vehicle, it can lose up to 30% of its value in just the first year. Depreciation drops to approximately 15% per year after that. So, when you trade in a used car, it will have a better resale value.
