Buying New vs Buying Pre-Owned

Why Buying a Used Truck is a Smart Choice

When it comes to purchasing a truck, the decision to buy new or used can be daunting. Here at Fairfield Truck, we believe that buying a used truck offers several significant advantages over purchasing new. Let’s dive into why a used truck might be the best choice for you.


1. Should I Buy New vs. Buying Used?

One of the biggest considerations for any vehicle purchase is cost. New trucks come with a hefty price tag and depreciate quickly. In fact, a new truck can lose up to 20% of its value within the first year (Edmunds Report). On the other hand, used trucks offer excellent value for your money. They’ve already undergone their steepest depreciation, meaning you get more truck for less money. Additionally, many used trucks come with lower insurance premiums and registration fees, adding to the overall savings.


2. Do Financing Options Really Make That Big of a Difference?


Financing plays a crucial role in the overall cost of your truck. While it might seem like new trucks have better financing options, used trucks can be just as advantageous. At Fairfield Truck, we offer competitive financing rates for used trucks that can be tailored to fit your budget. With our flexible financing plans, you can often secure lower monthly payments compared to a new truck. Plus, with a lower purchase price, you’re borrowing less, which can reduce the total interest paid over the life of the loan. Fairfield Trucks has Guaranteed Credit approval and you can get approved now.


3. How Does Trading in Ohio Make a Difference New vs. Used?


Trading in your current vehicle can significantly impact your new truck purchase. In Ohio, the sales tax credit from your trade-in can only be applied to the purchase price of a new vehicle. This means if you trade in your vehicle when buying new, you might miss out on additional savings. When buying used, you can negotiate a better deal and potentially get more value for your trade-in. Fairfield Truck ensures that you get the best possible offer for your trade-in, making the transition to your new-to-you truck as smooth and beneficial as possible.
