Tips from a PRO on car buying!

I have found that when most people go car buying, they tend to ask other people what they think is a good car. Another method is to look at a consumer report or ask a mechanic what a is a good car.

The reality is that a car is only as good as it has been cared for and what they need to know is how to inspect the car to determine if it is at all worth buying.

You have to make good decisions or else word gets around and no one buys from you and you are out of business.

I would start by staying away from junkers and project cars and look for turn key vehicles.
There are plenty of cars out there for $5,000 and below that will give you years of service and you can feel good about riding in.

You should have some criteria before you go buying like what is your main purpose for the vehicle, soccer mom, transportation to work, or you need to carry cargo on a regular basis. I cant tell you how big this is. I have seen so many people in a two door sports car with a baby seat and grocery shopping, it like they need a shoe horn to stuff everything in there. I have also seen guys in a Cadillac at Home Depot buying bricks and mortar mix.

Trying to use a vehicle for the wrong purpose will only cause you problems. Make sure you get what you need and not what catches your eye or seems like a deal today.
