Plenty of used vehicles are for sale in Rapid City, so how do you know which one is right for you? Choosing a Certified Pre-Owned car over a used model is often better. To help you understand the benefits, we've put together the CPO pros and cons. Consider these aspects as you look for a used vehicle from McKie Ford Lincoln.
Pro: CPO Vehicles Are Reliable
CPO Ford vehicles undergo extensive inspection procedures, and our technicians review the entire vehicle to ensure everything meets our high expectations. Also, the vehicles have lower mileage than most used cars and tend to be just a few years old.
Con: Inventory is Limited
The majority of pre-owned vehicles are in the used car inventory. These cars come without a warranty and don't offer the inspection we discussed. Because these cars don't need to go through any extra steps, you can easily find used cars everywhere. With a CPO Ford, finding a large inventory is much more difficult because of the work included. That's not the case at McKie Ford Lincoln. We have an extensive inventory for you to search through. Check it out today.
Pro: Comprehensive Extended Warranties
When you drive a Certified Pre-Owned Ford, there's a warranty provided for your protection. You can take it further and add service plans or an extended warranty if you desire even more.
Con: Higher Upfront Cost
When comparing apples to apples, the Certified Pre-Owned Ford will cost more than the CPO vs. the used model. However, when you factor in the perks, such as the warranty, you know this extra money is worth the cost.
Pro: Superior Financing Offers
Driving a CPO vehicle allows you access to better financing offers. You can get better deals from financers with a newer car with fewer miles. If your credit is good, you will also get a superior interest rate, keeping your payments to a minimum.
Con: Lack of Extended Financing Terms
Sometimes, there are shorter terms on a CPO vehicle as compared to a new one. However, you aren't going to find anything longer with a used car either, so it doesn't put you in a worse position. Discuss the options with one of our team members to see what's available.
Pro: Extra Purchase Benefits
With your CPO Ford, you get extra benefits that don't come with a used car. Not only might your purchase qualify you for roadside assistance, but you also get a vehicle history report and other benefits worth every extra penny you pay.
Pro: Special Factory CPO Offers
Manufacturers also take part in offering special deals for CPO vehicles. Ford will provide our premier dealership with incentives to pass on to you. You won't get incentives with the typical used cars, though. To get started, visit us at McKie Ford Lincoln. We can help you find the CPO Ford in Rapid City that fits your lifestyle and budget.
