Buying a used car, truck, SUV or 4x4 mini van related purchase has its own set of unique issues. So, here are some thoughts to consider. As a general statement, the purchase of a used 4x4 mini van, truck, car or SUV will happen one of four ways: (1) the used car lot of an established new car dealership; (2) through a private party which is advertising the sale of the vehicle; (3) a used car lot disassociated with any new car dealership; (4) the national rental companies selling their cars. Purchasing a used vehicle from a used car lot can be a dicey deal. Be sure to investigate the reputation of the lot. We suggest you do a search on the Internet of the Better Business Bureau's website to see if there have been any complaints filed against the used car lot. Pre-owned vehicles, as they are often called by new car dealerships are a viable source for your purchase of that 4x4 mini van related, car, truck or SUV. Many provide a multi-thousand mile warranty against defects. That provides a lot of comfort for those that fear the vehicle will fall apart once driven off the lot. Getting your car from a private party has a strong upside and a strong downside. The upside is that there is no middle man to raise the price. The downside is that you don't know the history of the car nor the honesty of the seller. Absolutely, if you are considering a specific car, get it inspected by a mechanic you trust. Probably the most conservative purchase would be from one of numerous national rental agencies. They are constantly turning over year to two year old and they are generally well maintained. So whether your investigation relates to 4x4 mini van or a car or truck, consider the national rent-a-car market.
