Well, you turn on the news and it is all about bad economic news except for the staggering two

industries, the auto sales and the real estate market. And as things stand now in the auto

industry, it is possibly a sheer combination of some of the incredibly lowest rates in history, as

well as the peak time for the highest used car values in history. One of the contributory factors

for the sudden desire for pre-owned vehicles however include the overall decline of the new

car sales between the years 2008 – 2010. You have guessed that right; this means cars which

were three years old became scarce and as an obvious result the older cars slowly became

more in demand.

On the other hand, the cutting down of the excess production of the 3 major US auto makers

also contributed to the rising demand of the used vehicles. Research records reveal that in the

last year, the pre-owned car industry in US has climbed 5% to 40.5 million. Needless to say that

Typically under the ‘Federal Trade Commission's Used Car Rule’ the sellers that are selling pre

owned vehicles (except the individual owners) needs to place a huge sticker called the "Buyers

Guide" right at the window of the cars. It is from the Buyers Guide you will be able to know

whether or not the vehicle comes with a warranty or with an extended warranty and if at all the

Now

vehicle is covered then which systems are covered exactly, how long the coverage does applies

etc. It is from the Buyers Guide you will be able to know whether the car is sol with an implied

warranty or with no warranty at all. Get things straight here, once you drive an ‘As Is’ car off

the lot the Sacramento auto dealer has no further responsibility for the car, whatsoever. When

buying used cars do not miss to sign the Buyers Guide and also request a copy of the same to

keep for your records.

Watch out for the following

Body: Look for rust especially at the bottoms or right around the tail lights, splash panels and

bumpers. Even small blister might indicate future rust as well. Precisely look for all the telltale

signs which may indicate that the car has witnessed damage or accidents

Tires: Uneven wear at the tires clearly indicates improper rotation of the tires. Check the spare

tire as well to make sure you are not buying a lemon.

miles the battery needs to be replaced.

Mechanical Parts: Ensure all the mechanical parts are in sync and are working properly. Also,

test the radio, AC, heater and the wipers.
