Drivers from Orange, TX, who are looking for trucks should visit our dealership near Moss Bluff, LA, to explore used vehicle options. What makes buying a used truck such a good deal? Used trucks are often superb choices regarding affordability, resale value, recent model years, availability, and reliability.
Finding an Affordable Used Truck near Sulphur, LA
Compared to buying a new ride, a used truck often represents a much better value proposition. Thanks to the current market, prices for new trucks are trending toward $100,000 or even higher for some luxury, heavy-duty, and extreme off-road packages. When you buy a used truck at our dealership, you can expect a significant difference between the used price and what the cost would have been brand new. If you are financing, you need to consider the hit that interest rates make on higher prices. Especially if a truck has low miles and is from a recent model year, it can make a used one an affordable way to get the features you want without breaking the bank.
Resale Value
Much of the depreciation hit on a typical truck happens during the first few years of its life. As long as the truck is still in close-to-new condition, it means the second owner is going to see a much smaller percentage loss on depreciation than the first owner did. For many people, a truck is the second biggest asset they have after their house. Knowing that you’ll likely retain much of a used truck’s value when it comes time to sell it can make you feel better about it as an investment now.
The Benefits of Recent Model Years
Truck companies don’t create brand-new designs every year near Jennings, LA. Especially if you can catch a deal on a used truck a few years after a manufacturer’s refresh, you can often get a design that looks almost like the current model year does. Particularly when it comes to trucks, big manufacturers like Ford, Chevy, and Ram rarely do aggressive redesigns. Most people need to find out the difference between a 2023 vehicle versus the one from this model year. You will feel a lot better driving a vehicle that looks new without paying the extra money for a truly new one.
Another benefit is that trucks from recent model years often have desirable modern features. If you are looking for a used truck with a large infotainment display in the dash, you may want to buy something that hit the market in the last few years. The same goes for adaptive cruise control, trailer towing assist, backup cameras with digital guidance, and collision warning sensors.
Availability
Supply chain issues in recent years have brutalized availability in the new truck market. Manufacturers often take orders and sit on them for months when they used to take weeks to deliver even trucks with highly customized packages. A major benefit of coming to our dealership to look at used trucks is that people often drive off with the ride of their dreams the day they see it.
Reliability
At our dealership in Lake Charles, LA, our team of technicians goes over every vehicle to ensure it’s ready for sale. Whether you’re buying a truck with 2,500 or 250,000 miles, we want you to be confident that you can rely on it.
