When buying a used car, drivers always check the mileage, not just the car’s physical or mechanical condition. Some say that you should steer clear of any used car or used RAM trucks that have over 100,000 miles. The thing is, that isn’t completely true. The vehicle could still be a good buy if the previous owner took care of it and kept it well maintained. Drivers around Dos Palos should make sure to consider the condition, location, and usage of any pre-owned vehicle they are considering purchasing. This guide from Western Motors Los Banos can tell you more so you can pick the right used GMC or used Lexus for sale.
So what is the smart way to shop for a used car or used SUV for sale? Well, in addition to the mileage there are some other factors drivers should take into account:
“What is good mileage on a used car?” has no perfect answer. Each car is unique. What a driver really needs to ask is, “How much mileage can I get out of this used car?” A used car with 50,000 miles that’s working well is likely a good buy, but a cheap used car with 100,000 miles in decent condition can probably last for four whole years and will be a better deal. The buyer also has to consider the car’s age.
When comparing a car that’s new but with high mileage with a low-mileage older car, a driver may want to choose the higher mileage car. There are several possible reasons why:
Most drivers clock about 12,000 miles per year, so one should keep that in mind when comparing mileage vs. age. Of course, if the goal is to purchase a like-new, low-mileage vehicle, then a Certified Pre-Owned model is worth considering.
