All right, so my car is a piece of junk. So what? Yes, there's little bit of duct tape here and there, the shocks are shot, and the tires are bald. But I can depend on it to get me from point A to point B, most of the time. Except for twice last week. And then this morning it wouldn't start, again.
Where do you go to find a new vehicle? There are so many places that sell cars, public and private. Some are upstanding citizens that will help you get the best deal possible. Unfortunately, some are not and will try to squeeze out every last dollar you have. That's what many think about car dealerships these days. If you want to find a good deal going though a private sale is the way to go.
You might want to begin by checking out your local newspaper. The classified section is a great place to start for deals on new and used cars available in your area. There are also specialized guides that contain classifieds listings for cars all across the U.S. Your dream ride might be right there, waiting for you on the East Coast. Or maybe you want to try a new way to find a car.
The internet has certainly advanced over the years, and specialized search engines have popped up for just about everything, including vehicles. You just choose the make, model, year and price range of the vehicle you are looking for and there it is. View pictures, ask questions, and sometimes place a bid if on an auction website. Or you can broaden your search if you're not finding the right match. You can also do all sorts of research and read reviews on every single car.
But should I buy a used car? Or treat myself to a new one? The downside of new cars is that you loose so much value off the bat and you haven't even done anything except drive it a few blocks. There are big savings to be had just by buying a vehicle that is one or two years old. There may be a few scratches, and more than a few miles on it, but it will be your car just the same. Plus, you can spend some of the money you saved on one of those Christmas tree air fresheners. I hear they come in new car smell now.
