Bugsy Stidham's Blog | Tips For Purchasing A New Or Used Car

If you are thinking about purchasing a new car or truck, then you may be worried about getting ripped  off.

But if you are prepared with research and information, you can feel confident about the decisions you make.

Read through this article to get that information.

Do not get attached to a vehicle you can't honestly afford. Sports cars look nice but can you afford one?

This doesn't  just stop at a sports car. You need to continually review your budget to make the right choice.

Never, ever skip the test drive when you are car shopping. You have to get behind the wheel of that car and see how it feels before committing to a buying it.

Make sure you try a variety of driving conditions, including surface streets and interstate driving.

Do not forget to try pulling it into a parking space in a shopping center. Have a clear understanding of what those upgrades will cost you.

Purchasing the fancy stereo, leather seats and DVD player might be appealing, but those options can add a significant amount to the price of your car.

Take some time to think about how much you really need the upgrades, and only purchase the ones you will use the most.

Take an extended test drive. Don't just take it for a quick spin through the neighborhood by yourself. Instead, enlist everyone who will be regularly riding in the car to share their opinions.

Ask the dealer for a full afternoon test drive so that you have the chance to take it on the freeway to check things like the pickup and the blind spots, and spend some time really feeling the comfort of the interior.

If you are car shopping and want to test drive some different cars, make sure you bring your license and insurance card with you.

Many dealers will want a photo copy of them before you drive. This is just to protect them in case someone steals or damages a car. It is routine.

If you do not have them with you, they might not let you test drive.

Did you know you can actually find and purchase a car online?

Most dealerships have websites where you can shop from the comfort of your computer.

 When buying a compact or subcompact car, make sure that it has enough room for each person who will drive it.

The car may be your daily driver, but it may not have enough leg room for others in your household.

If there is a chance that someone else will drive the car occasionally, bring them along while shopping.

Now that you are prepared and informed, you are ready to go out and find the right car at the perfect price point.
