Tips For Properly Inspecting A Pre-Owned Vehicle

1. While we always ensure that our pre-owned vehicles are in the best condition possible for our appreciated customers, be on the lookout for nicks in the tire sidewalls, scratches, chips, or paint-finish dings.

1. Make sure that you’re opening all of the doors that permit entry to the vehicle. Climb in, and make sure the door space and passenger seating are sufficient. Don’t forget to open the trunk or tailgate as well, checking their function and measurements.

1. Connectivity-wise, ensure that any USB ports you may need for charging are available. Ask about and test Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay® integration if applicable.

1. Check out the storage capacity, don’t feel embarrassed to bring your largest suitcase to be sure that it fits. Get a feel for the fold-down rear seat capability of the vehicle and assess the cup-holder and center console situation.

Tips For Physically Driving The Car

You’ll want to take the vehicle for a spin that properly tests the car’s actual capabilities. Drive up any hills if they’re within a reasonable distance, hop on the highway if there’s time, and see how the car does driving through Salina, Hutchinson, or Newton. With a more in-depth test drive, you’ll be able to accurately assess the car’s ride, handling, responsiveness, acceleration, overall sound, and general fuel economy.
