Benefits of a Pre-Owned Vehicle Test Drive Appointment from the Thelen Auto Group

Test Drive a Pre-Owned Vehicle with the Thelen Automotive Group

Shopping for a pre-owned vehicle can be a confusing experience, no matter how many times you have done so previously. Factors such as previous owners, mileage, and existing amenities all factor into whether or not a vehicle will fit your needs. The best way to determine the likelihood of you purchasing a vehicle is by test driving it. That way, you can inspect and drive it to make sure you enjoy the experience. When you schedule a test drive with the Thelen Auto Group in Bay City, MI, we are happy to help you make the most of your appointment so that you can make a confident decision. 

Why Should You Test Drive a Potential Vehicle Purchase?

Inspection – While we make sure the photos and descriptions on our pre-owned inventory are as detailed as possible, getting to see the vehicle in person is always preferred. When you schedule a test drive at any of our dealerships in Bay City, we are happy to let you inspect the vehicle before you step into it to commence the driving portion of the process.

Questions – We encourage you to ask questions about the pre-owned vehicle you are looking to purchase from our family of dealerships. Whether you want to know more about the vehicle itself, or you want to know more about the previous owner(s), the associate who will be conducting the test drive with you can provide you with the insight you need. You can also ask us about the sales process so you get a head start on it if you choose to purchase the vehicle you are testing. 

Driving – The namesake activity of the appointment, getting to drive the vehicle around and see how it feels is vital to the overall enjoyment you’ll have behind the wheel. When you take the vehicle out for a drive, it is advised that you drive how you normally do. This way, you get the most accurate representation of what the vehicle will do for your daily ventures. You should also bring along any items that you will likely regularly take with you on your travels to see how they fit.
