You should not consider the issues raised in the new vehicle section when it comes to buying a pre-owned 2000 chevrolet malibu or pre-owned car or pre-owned truck. Used vehicles have a whole different set of 'rules'. You will most likely get your next used truck, your 2000 chevrolet malibu, your SUV or your car through 1 of 4 sources. These sources would be: (a) a new car dealership that also sells used vehicles; (b) a stand-alone used car lot; (c) from a private party that is advertising the vehicle for sale either in the local newspaper or online; or (d) a national rent-a-car company. The used car lot may or may not be the best place to make that purchase. Certainly there are plenty of movies that portray them as rip-off joints. But, if the lot has a reputation for fair dealings, then it could be OK. Ask them for references of past clients; check out any complaints they may have with the B.B.B. and also the local Chamber. Most new car dealers have a used car lot - they often call them 'pre-owned'. Look for the truck, SUV, car or 2000 chevrolet malibu related vehicle to come with some kind of a warranty. Also, check out their business reputation. You see a car in the newspaper or at an online car site - should you buy it? Well, maybe. You have the best chance of getting a great price from a private party. You also have a chance of getting a real 'stinker'. So, take the car to a garage that you trust and have it inspected prior to making that purchase. Why not buy from one of a handful of national rent-a-car companies that must constantly turn-over their inventory. These agencies keep their cars, generally speaking, well maintained on a regular basis. Car, truck or 2000 chevrolet malibu, consider the national agency as one of your alternatives.
