When shopping for your next new-to-you vehicle, there are some important steps to take so you don’t feel lost in the process.  Buying a vehicle is already a big decision but shopping around for a used vehicle can be even more of a process.  Here’s some great information to follow when you begin the used vehicle buying process: 

First and foremost, it is important to set your budget.  You need to be firm about what you can afford.  Know what your credit score is so you know what will benefit you.  This is one of the most important steps because you don’t want to find yourself in a situation where you can’t afford the vehicle you have chosen.  Next, you want to get an idea of what types of make and model you’re looking for.  Are you leaning toward a fuel-efficient sedan or looking for a family SUV that is loaded with features for everyone to enjoy?  There are plenty of amazing pre-owned options for you to choose from! 

If you’ve found a good used vehicle, it’s a great idea to see what its vehicle history report says about its previous owners.  You should also look up reviews on the same model years to see what other opinions on it are.  Be sure to  take a test drive to see if it’s the best fit for you!  After a test drive, you can go through the buying process easily with a reputable dealer like Thelen Auto Group.
