Is It Time to Trade in That Overly Used Vehicle?

Is It Time to Trade in That Overly Used Vehicle?

Are you driving a car or truck that is 15 years plus? Do you worry about its reliability? Are you constantly putting it in the shop? Do wonder if it will leave you stranded on the side of the road as you are trying to get the kids to school? If so, it may be time to get a new vehicle. Buying a new vehicle is a big step especially if you have been used to not having a car payment for years. However, if you are putting more money into an old unreliable vehicle than it is worth, you will end up spending more keeping it going than if you just bit the bullet and got a new one. Plus, getting a new vehicle would take away a lot of the worry and burden of always thinking you are going to break down and be stranded.

Why Spend the Money on a Brand-New Car?

Buying a new car is a big step because vehicles are expensive. This is why it is a better idea to buy a good, reliable vehicle that has been slightly used. There is nothing wrong with buying a slightly used vehicle. They tend to be much more budget friendly and most of the time you cannot even tell they are not brand-new. They are very well taken care of. Often they also have very low mileage, so not only are you getting a great deal financially, but you are also getting a vehicle that has barely been used. Sometimes people just buy the wrong vehicle for themselves, so they only drive it for a few weeks or months and decide they really need something more practical. It doesn’t mean that particular vehicle is wrong for everyone. It may be the perfect vehicle for you.

Do You Prefer a Ford or Chevy?

Do You Prefer a Ford or Chevy? This is the age-old question. Ford or Chevy? Ford lovers wouldn’t be caught dead driving a Chevy, and Chevy lovers wouldn’t be caught dead driving a Ford. Fortunately, this type of mindset is falling by the wayside as the new millennial generation is growing. Many of them do not share the rivalry that their fathers and grandfathers shared between these two makes of pickup trucks. This has a lot to do with the fact that there are many other popular makes and models of pickup trucks such as Dodge, Nissan, and Toyota. People have more options now than they did 30 to 40 years ago. This is a good thing because it breaks people from those ingrained stereotypes.

How Movies Portrayed Car Salesmen

How Movies Portrayed Car Salesmen Since the 80s and through the 90s, movies involving car dealerships shined a negative light on car salesmen and painted a stereotypical picture. These comedic characters came off as shady, sleazy, pushy, and willing to do anything to make the sale. The News Wheel has listed the Top 5 Worst Car Salesmen from Movies and they're some pretty bad ones. Here are my three favorites from the list. Rudy Russo from the 1980 film Used Cars . A young Kurt Russell portrays Rudy Russo, a state Senate hopeful. In order to get a $10,000 campaign investment from used car lot owner Luke Fuchs, Rudy must help him sell some cars to keep his business up and running. While doing so, Rudy uses standard stereotypical used car salesmen techniques like cheesy commercials, fast-talking, and pressure selling. He even baits a customer from a competing lot by using a $10 bill on a fishing line to get the man to cross the street. Joey O’Brien from Cadillac Man . The ...
