The Benefits of Buying Used
Whether you commute to Clifton Park or Albany or stay close to home in Malta, a used vehicle can be a smart fit for your budget and your lifestyle.
Lower Depreciation
Let someone else take the biggest hit. Used vehicles have already experienced the steepest part of their depreciation.
More for Your Money
Get more features, higher trim levels, and better-equipped vehicles for your budget.
More Variety
Choose from a wide selection of makes, models, model years, and body styles to find the right vehicle for your needs.
Smarter Value
Understanding Depreciation
The average person owns 13 cars in a lifetime, according to the National Automobile Dealers Association. Buying each one three years old instead of new could save nearly $130,000 over a lifetime.
Example: a $30,000 vehicle bought new and sold for $15,000 three years later, compared with the same vehicle bought three years old for $15,000 and sold for $10,000. Actual values vary.
