What you need to know when shopping for a vehicle

Here are just a few tips and tricks you can use when shopping for your future vehicle:

Q. Should I shop for a new or a used car?

A. Sometimes, deciding whether or not you should shop for a new or used car is treading a fine line. On one hand, used cars are typically less expensive than new cars, have already depreciated enough that you won’t lose quite as much value when you drive off the lot, and you can find some really good used cars out there that are both safe, reliable, and up-to-date on technologies. However, new cars not only have the latest technologies, but you know there aren’t any drivers that came before you, and no hidden surprises in the vehicle. Usually, if you aren’t sure if you want a new car or a used car, compromises can be made for a certified pre-owned vehicle. This is a vehicle that has rigorous testing done to pass the test to become certified before it is put on the lot. However, the final decision always belongs to you.

Q. What are my vehicle warranty options?

A. There are a variety of different vehicle warranty options you can find at your car dealership. Usually, you can find some warranties that are offered by the dealership itself, and some warranties that are offered by the OEM that you are buying from. For example, Mercedes-Benz has a CPO vehicle warranty that covers up to one year on things like your vehicle’s brakes, suspension, and even air conditioning.

Q. Can I lease a used car?

A. Typically, no, you cannot lease a used vehicle. Leases are usually for new vehicles instead. However, there are some car dealerships that allow you to buy these certain used vehicles. Mercedes-Benz of Arrowhead is not one of these dealerships.
