What should I check before buying a used car or truck?

Buying a used car or truck is a great alternative to new and can save you thousands of dollars. There are some things to watch for to ensure you're getting a quality used vehicle at a fair price. First, check the vehicle's history report with a reputable company like Carfax or AutoCheck. Look to see if the vehicle you're interested in has ever been in a serious accident and review the service history. Compare prices with other dealerships in the area with similar vehicles for sale and visit websites like Kelley Blue Book to see what others are paying. You can also get an idea of what your trade-in is worth so you know what to expect when you arrive to the dealership. Check your credit to know what you qualify for or even get pre-approved at the dealership if you're unsure. Ask about the remaining factory warranty and if there are extended plan options available at the dealership. These can be tailored to your driving habits and potentially save you thousands of dollars in repairs.

What dealer fees are in the final price?

Most dealerships will charge a documentation or "doc" fee above and beyond the advertised price. This fee covers several costs associated with an automobile purchase such as the preparing and filing of contracts and state paperwork, both digital and hard copy. These fees are regulated by the state in most cases but can vary at the dealership's discretion.

The estimated selling price that appears after calculating dealer offers is for informational purposes, only. You may not qualify for the offers, incentives, discounts, or financing. Offers, incentives, discounts, or financing are subject to expiration and other restrictions. See dealer for qualifications and complete details.

Internet Pricing does not include Dealer Doc Fee of $599.

Online prices may require a retail trade-in and dealer arranged financing. Final price may be higher if both requirements are not met. Please see dealer for details.
