I don’t want to screw around with trying to by a decent used car from some knucklehead on Craigslist, having to wonder what the history is of a particular car – and no, I don’t think Carfax alone does the trick.

1)Dealers make wayyy more money on used than new. U really think 1000 is a lot when purchasing a 22k vehicle? That made me laugh.2) Car reports only know reported accidents and are not foolproof. 3) People that sell cars in 2-3 years, specially sports cars, drove the hell out of them. The newest bling is an atractant but not so high to sell a car before 5 years. 4)anyone who finances with a dealer is a fool who due to laziness and willful ignorance loses much more money.5) the top reason buy new is for reliability and safty, profiling new car buyers the way u did is ignorant and childish. Again, if not for new car buyers u wouldn’t have the used market. I understand the point was to try to pursuade people to see your viewpoint but the best u can do is present unbiased facts and let people decide for themselves. I personally bought my primary car new for the reasons I listed, with a very low percentage rate three year loan through my bank. Btw three year loans save u huge amounts of cash. I’m not saying don’t buy used. I think with the proper research u can get a great deal. Do the legwork and the math, decide what fits your needs the best and your wants secondary.

Hi LC. I actually got that information from a Dodge Dealership owner that I am friends with. I thought the same thing, but that isn’t what he told me. Maybe it varies based on the used car inventory or region?

Help me understand how the warrenty makes it smarter? Most 1-2 year old cars and still under warrenty AND warranties can always be purchased later. Personally, I’m not sure I’m buying the warrenty argument. Cars today are so reliable, that I seldom use the warrenty.

Thanks for jumping in an offering your perspective. I would sincerely like to hear your thoughts on the discrepancy of information we have between new and used.

My family owns a car dealership and I’ll be honest, the first “reason” is total B.S. We make more money selling used vehicles most of the time rather than new… but belive whatever you want. I personally think it’s smarter to buy a new vehicle just because of the life of the warranty.
