Is A Used Pickup Truck Right For You?

Are you in the market for a truck? Maybe you need to haul something, or perhaps you are working a job that requires a truck. No matter your reasoning, if you need a truck, you should understand that used trucks for sale are exponentially more popular than new trucks. There are many reasons for the popularity of used trucks; however, we at Valencia Chevy have narrowed these reasons down to a helpful list below.

1. Incredible Affordability

One of the most significant reasons for the popularity of used trucks for sale is their affordability. In truth, new trucks lose quite a bit of their value after a few years. Thus, most used trucks near you will have lost most of their value by the time they are being sold at a dealership. In addition, because this initial value has already been lost, most used trucks have a slow rate of cost depreciation compared to new trucks.

2. Reliability And Durability

Compared to typical vehicles at Valencia Chevy or anywhere else, trucks are much more durable and reliable. In fact, trucks are renowned for having high-quality components and durable construction that provides long life. In fact, some trucks are known to last up to 300,000 miles if well-maintained.

3. Mileage Matters

When it comes to choosing a used truck for sale, mileage is an essential factor to consider. After all, you don’t want to purchase something with barely any life left. With this being said, you should strive to find a truck for sale near you with less than 100,000 miles. Finding something with less than 100,000 miles ensures that you will get plenty of years from your truck. Additionally, a truck with over 100,000 miles may end up costing you more in maintenance and repairs than the cost of the truck itself.

4. Regular Maintenance Prolongs Truck Life

If you browse Valencia Chevy’s selection of trucks, you will notice that every truck is spotless and in good condition. Truthfully, these trucks don’t look like this just for show. In fact, keeping a truck well maintained is the best way to extend its life. As mentioned above, some trucks can last up to 300,000 miles when well-maintained. Fortunately, maintaining a truck isn’t difficult, and there are only a few maintenance tasks either you or a professional need to perform to keep a truck in good shape, which can be seen below:

  • Check And Maintain Fluids
  • Inspect Brakes And Suspension
  • Assess Tire Pressure And Wear
  • Clean Vehicle When Needed

5. Versatile Utilities

A major reason for the high demand for trucks for sale is their incredible versatility. With the ability to hold cargo in their beds, trucks can carry much more than typical vehicles. Trucks are also capable of towing much more than any other vehicle, which is possibly one of the biggest reasons people buy trucks. When equipped with four-wheel drive, trucks can also handle rugged terrain and harsh weather conditions.

6. Vehicle History Report

When you choose a truck with Autonation Chevrolet Valencia or any other truck dealership, you will first be presented with the history report for the truck before making your final decision. This history report will indicate any incidents or accidents that the truck may have been involved in, along with details of how it was previously maintained. This information is incredibly important since it helps to predict the amount of life left in a truck. Therefore, if a dealership is unable to provide a history report, you should shop with a different dealership.

7. Most Popular Truck Models

During your visit with Chevrolet Valencia or any other truck dealer, you are likely to be surprised by the amount of variety among trucks for sale. With such a range of options to choose from, you might be considering which truck is the best for you. The fact is that the right truck for you will depend entirely on your needs and preferences. There are a few options that are more popular than others, however, which can be seen in the following list:

  • Chevy Silverado 1500
  • Chevy Colorado
  • Toyota Tacoma
  • Toyota Tundra
  • Ford F-150
