Summer is the perfect season for a new car: the summer sun, newfound free time, and fun drives around southern Louisiana beckon for a new driving experience. Of course, the savvy driver understands that "new" doesn't have to mean more than "new to you!"
A used SUV, car, or truck comes with nearly every benefit of a brand-new vehicle, with none of the drawbacks. You can enjoy the assurance and reliability of a new car with Toyota's Certified Used Vehicle program and build quality. And when buying a used car from Team Toyota, you won't have to worry about the dreaded depreciation of a new car while still enjoying modern technology.
Buying a Used Truck, SUV, or Car Means More Bang for your Buck
Obviously, the sticker price of a used vehicle is lower than a new one. What might not be so obvious is what factors into that lower price, and how those factors can lead to cheaper leadership throughout your life with a used car.
During the first three years of a car's life, it loses about 40% of its value through depreciation (though of course, that number depends on the make, model, year, and options of the car -- Toyotas, in particular, hold their values better than average). After those first three years, they depreciate much more slowly, meaning that on average, you'll save $14,000 over the life of your vehicle by purchasing one that's three years old over a new one.
Since a used car is valued less than a new car, it insures for less as well. But how can you save even more?! Our used specials will help you get into a new-to-you used vehicle without breaking the bank. Additionally, there are savings that you can get from cheaper licensing, registration, and inspection fees in most states, and it begins to make even more financial sense to buy used!
Peace of Mind Comes Easily with Legendary Toyota Reliability
The main worry about buying a used SUV, car, or truck is how well it'll stay in good condition under your care. With Toyota's well-known build quality, it's no wonder so many used trucks, cars, and SUVs on the road today are Toyotas: they're just well-built and hold their value longer. In fact, they're so confident about the build quality that they implemented the Toyota Certified Used Vehicle Program to provide even more peace of mind to their customers.
A Certified Used Toyota is so much more than just a used car. Before it hits the lot, it's subjected to a 160-point inspection to ensure its quality, and afterward, it's covered by Toyota's Certified Used Warranty. With the guarantee that all Toyota Certified Used SUVs, trucks, and cars are younger than six years and have fewer than 85,000 miles, you'll have plenty of time to drive around your used Toyota.
