Does depend on the car though. He mentioned a $35,000 car - you can get a new Corolla for half that. I've done the sums on this - a good quality entry-level brand new car can cost you a similar amount to buying a 10 -15 year old car and doing ongoing repairs. Provided you keep it for about 7 - 10 years. Bear in mind that Scotty's a mechanic - so of course 2nd hand works out well for him, cos he's saving on repair costs.

When my wife and I were young and didn't know better, we went into a Toyota stealership to get her a new last-year model corolla. It was 16k out the door. They had the 0% financing for 5 years deal going on... but to get the 0% financing, the sticker price would have gone up $1000. I did some calculating and it was a much better deal to just do a non-0% financing and pay off the car within two or three years. The interest would have only costed about $200-$400 (I forgot how much). So that's what we did, and that's when I realized why the 0% deals were always scams.

Mistake people make is they go into the dealership with monthly payments in mind instead of looking at the actual total cost of the car. Always look at that over the monthly payments. This is how they get you, then they creep the monthly payments up over your budget with the comment "Hey it's only the cost of your morning coffee".

Buy a car before your current car needs to be replaced. If you wait to buy until you need a car then the pressure of needing transportation will make you desperate. And desperation leads to bad choices. If your car is going to need replacing in 2020 then plan on shopping and buying in 2019.

I remember car shopping when I first turned 18. I had like $2500 cash. I wanted a truck. I was searching for like a month for a cash car and didn't find anything decent. So I went to a dealership and put $800 down on a 2003 Ford F-150 and drove away. I was naive, the truck was a piece of junk. The starter went bad, the battery needed replacing, tires would need replacing soon, it would run hot at high speeds, the aftermarket radio was trash, and they took out the door speakers from the driver and passenger side doors. Ended up sending the truck back to the dealer within 8 months. Don't get impatient when car shopping and always do a thorough inspect of the car your purchasing.

Your last point about not trying to get so attached to a car you want: I was so into a TrailBlazer SS because of its sporty design, decent amount of amentites and the roar of the exhaust and the LS2 engine. That vehicle became a dream to own for the past two months... That ended when I looked up the MPG. Now those TBSS's can go crash and burn.

I mostly agree with you on the extended warranty as for the other stuff, your spot on. I purchased a brand new F-150 Lariat with the 5.0 V8 in 2015, I purchased the extended Ford warranty because I planned to keep it past the base warranty. I knew that if anything broke on the truck it would be expensive to replace, here is what happened. At 45K 10K after base warranty the passenger mirror died, the auto-fold computerize collision avoidance wizbang mirror. Replacement cost $1400. at 52K the Vista roof stop working and would not completely open or close, $2800 track system replaced. At 56K, 2 days ago the driver side mirror died (same problem) $1400; total outlay $5200 less $100 deductible per claim. Normally I would never purchase such a thing but I knew in my gut that when this truck broke it would be costly. P.s. Love your channel, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year..

If you decide to buy a new car here is the best advice. When you arrive at the dealership there will be a smiling car salesman. After you greet, tell him you will be asking questions but, you will NOT answer any of his questions. Always do this. I remember going to a car dealer to buy. The salesman got extremely p***sd because I would not answer questions and the salesman walked out of that little booth office in an angry huff. I had to get another salesman to finish the deal. The second salesman knew better than to ask questions and got the sale. The main question they ask is "How much do you want to spend?" Never, I repeat NEVER answer this question. As mentioned don't answer any questions. It is interesting and maybe even fun to watch car salesman get angry and frustrated because they can't size you up with probing questions that are not in your best interest to answer. Remember, this is your money and your rules. Don't answer their questions. Also, as Scotty mentioned that extended warranty is a total scam. It is even worse. I have read the dealership and salesmen pocket the money you paid for it and never contact the insurance outfit to register the policy.

@damiandagger 5 жыл бұрын

Yea, I got to a Hyundai dealership in CoS because of the incentive of a gift card ($50). He tried to sell me this Tucson. I told him how much I would pay for it. He got pissed that I wouldn't yield. Then he let me test drive other cars and tried to sell those to me. I said no. He got pretty irritated to borderline losing his professionalism. Then another salesman took over. Pretty much that insinuated that I couldn't afford to buy a car. I went to another dealership and got an Infiniti Q50. I drove to the Hyundai dealership and politely told them to f^^^ off.

If you get a lower price deal from a dealer for using their financing make sure there Isn't a PREPAYMENT PENALTY. That is, if you pay it off early, they charge you a chunk of money. If there isn't a booby trap like that, go ahead and make your deal. IMMEDIATELY after closing the deal, drive right down to your CREDIT UNION (NOT bank), borrow the money and pay the loan off. Of course you have to get the loan pre-approved by your credit union.

rminitials buy here pay here lots, don't give you a chance, the moment you miss a payment is the moment they would pick up the car. They also don't count towards your credit even if you paid on time and paid it off. It's better going to a big dealership, but with financing from a credit union. So go to a credit union first, figure out what you can afford than start looking for cars and make sure to state that you have financing already when you step at the dealership.

My parents always paid cash. I learned the right way to do the car thing from them. They were always dirt poor, but saved up for something they knew they would need. Last vehicle they bought, a 2009 Dodge Journey, used, but the dealer wanted 18,000 for it. Leather seats, clean, 40,000 miles on it. They picked out 3 similar vehicles and had the dealers drive each 1 to the house, and we all test drove them. We live in the boonies. The woods. Each dealer called every day over the vans they looked at. Mom decided on the Journey, and had her cash ready. Bottom price for that van he said, was 14,000. Mom told him, HER top price was 10,000, and she laid her 100's on the kitchen table. She looked him in the eye, and said...you wanna sell that damned van or not? She said 100's would disappear off the table the longer he stood there... Every 5 minutes, a 100$ bill would come off the table. That man was on the phone with his boss, and in less than 15 minutes, they had a deal for 9800$. It's been a great van, but it's time to move up a little bit, and it has had problems, so it needs to go.
