Image via Ford If you're about to buy a vehicle, why pay more when you can attain the same power, performance, and rugged reliability for less? With a pre-owned Ford, you're avoiding the initial high price tag, skipping the first years of rapid depreciation, and getting behind the wheel of a car or truck that is still in marvelous condition, for a fraction of the price. Read on to learn the enormous value that a pre-owned purchase provides for our St. Louis drivers. Maximizing Value: The Benefits of Choosing a Pre-owned Ford Considerable Purchase Discounts During the first month alone, a new car can depreciate 10 percent. After only a year has passed, this depreciation often reaches 20 percent and as much as 60 percent by year five. As buying a car is a significant investment for most drivers, these kinds of discounts can make a huge difference to your finances. Modern Ford Cars Last Longer Over the years, Ford vehicles have become increasingly durable, and you can expect a modern Ford to last for at least 15 years, over 200,000 miles, when well-maintained. This makes Ford cars and trucks ideal for pre-owned purchases; after enjoying the hefty initial discount, you'll happily be driving your used Ford for a decade or more. Detailed Vehicle Inspections The quality of every used car and truck is assured by thorough vehicle inspections carried out by the dealership. Before accepting any vehicle into our inventory, our technicians test and exhaustively examine the engine, brakes, transmission, steering, suspension, exhaust, and every other part. On top of this, each used Ford you consider buying has a comprehensive vehicle history report to ensure that the prior owner never missed so much as an oil change. Your Budget Stretches Further You can also consider top-of-the-line vehicles when purchasing pre-owned. With sizable discounts available, you may now be able to afford an upper-trim Mustang or F-150 pickup that was previously out of your reach. Avoiding the initial few years of depreciation gives many drivers access to their dream vehicle. Cost Savings on Insurance You not only save on the purchase price of a used Ford but also on the ongoing insurance expenses. Insurers usually reduce their premiums when the vehicle has been bought at a lower price. This lowers your overall monthly costs, alleviating pressure on your finances over the long run.
