Used vehicles have many benefits, whether you are looking to replace your existing vehicle or are looking for your first car. If you think a pre-owned car is best for you, visit DePaula Ford to see what we have on the lot and what could best fit your driving needs. Whether you want something that can fit the entire family at school pickup or for weekend road trips, something with a lot of cargo space, or something that can handle the unpredictable Albany weather, DePaula Ford has a car that will fit your style.Â
Looking for a used car can be overwhelming based on the wide selection of makes, models, and features available on the lot. Since you’re looking for something previously owned, it’s harder to zero in on a specific make and model to be interested in before you get to the lot due to available inventory. When you arrive at DePaula Ford, a member of our sales team will sit with you and go over what exactly you are looking for and narrow down the options on the lot. We can arrange looks at the cars that match what you’re looking for as well as test drives. We know that you may be wary about a used vehicle due to not knowing its full history. Each pre-owned vehicle on the DePaula Ford lot comes with a comprehensive CARFAX report detailing owner, maintenance, and accident history to give you peace of mind about what the car has been through.
There are two major categories of used vehicles: pre-owned and certified pre-owned. While all used cars are pre-owned, certified pre-owned vehicles are of the highest quality, with strict mileage and age requirements needing to be met before passing a thorough 125-point, manufacturer-set inspection. Because of their higher quality, certified pre-owned vehicles may qualify for extended warranties for different components of the car.Â
DePaula Ford understands how much of an investment a pre-owned vehicle is and that a full payment at the time of purchase is often not realistic. That’s where our automotive financing department comes in. Our finance representatives work with local lenders to provide our customers with the best loan packages and rates available for their situation. If you are unsure what you are able to afford for a monthly payment, check out our convenient online monthly car payment calculator to determine what you can afford to have financed, including any trade-in value from your current car and any money used as a down payment. Have low or no credit? We will be able to help you secure a bad credit car loan that fits your budget so you can drive out with your perfect, pre-owned car.Â
