sometimes a used car makes the best car especially if the previous owner was a little old lady

It depends from whom you buy? I mean, from a person who has maintained it in top condition.

My hubby drives used truck. It 1995 model truck but they runs great. Havent had any problems at all. I think it all luck. Sometime brand new car have a problems and sometimes used car turn out to be great car. It depends on cars. That what I think.

Used cares can be good deals if you know what to look for, have a mechanic check it out...so many people have to trade up every years so the cars are hardly used...

Yes, if you can get a CarFax report of the car and it states that the car was well maintained. Always have a non-biased mechanic check out a used car before purchasing.

Well, at least provide some reasons for not buying an used car will you, since you're the one who started the thread. I'd definitely consider buying a used one for economic reasons. It's alot cheaper than the new ones.

I worked in the car business for 18 years. 6 as sales and 12 as finance. I would never buy a new car again. The best deal is a 1-2 year old with time left on the full manaufacturers warranty. Then purchase an extended warranty. As an example: I drove a 2 year old car with 20,00 miles with a retail price of $12,900. The same car brand new listed for $23900. That's a huge difference; too much depreciation. And you can still get new car finance rates on 1 year old and often on 2 year old.
