What makes something perfect? In our eyes, perfection is the feeling of making the right choice, and if you're looking for a used Ford for sale, you're one step closer to finding the perfect model to take that spot in your driveway. Ford excels at many things––more so than most other manufacturers––and is a trusted choice for automobiles big and small. No matter what makes a vehicle perfect for your needs, you will find the right used Ford here at DePaula Ford.
For example, are you looking for a pickup truck? Ample towing power and cargo space are two things commonly associated with Ford's popular pickup options. Alternatively, are you shopping for an SUV or sedan to get better fuel efficiency, more cargo space, better tech, or all of the above? Ford has vehicles of all types for different drivers who need wildly different things. For many drivers, there is no other option––a Ford vehicle is a must.
Finding the perfect used vehicle is one thing, but finding a dealership with a knowledgeable staff and a wide selection of options is a crucial part of the shopping experience. The entire experience could be null and void if you can't find the vehicle you truly want because you shouldn't settle for anything less. It's important to ask yourself: what would lead you to choose the second best? Price, availability, a mixture of the two? At DePaula Ford, you'll not only find your dream vehicle, but our prices are highly competitive.
At DePaula Ford, we're not just car people––we're Ford people. If you're purchasing a Ford, you'll want to buy it from Ford people, and we'll tell you why. The vehicle you purchase is crucial to you––we likely don't have to tell you that. Aside from your next car being the automobile that will get you around for the foreseeable future, the vehicle you purchase must match your lifestyle. Whether you're a blue-collar worker who needs a vehicle for its towing power more than anything or a commuter who needs a car that will make a tank of gas last, there's a Ford vehicle for you.
Ford's crossovers and SUVs, from the Bronco Sport to the Expedition, are among the most popular on the market. We understand that better than other dealerships, so it's our mission to get you behind the wheel of a Ford that checks all of the boxes for your wants, needs, and budget and will leave you satisfied. Ford's foray into EVs even means Ford can be your go-to choice if you're looking for an electric car like the F-150 Lightning or Mustang Mach-E.
The advantage of purchasing your Ford vehicle from Ford people is having a trove of valuable information that will help you decide which car from Ford's selection you'll want to buy from our pre-owned lot. At DePaula Ford, our team of enthusiastic Ford fans does a fantastic job at pairing our customers with the Ford vehicle of their choosing. Our job is to point you in the right direction and answer all your questions, and as Ford people, we're excited to tell you everything you want to know about these incredible vehicles.
Purchasing a new vehicle may have several advantages, but so does buying a pre-owned vehicle. Ford models are among the best used cars on the market, but why? Fords are the best pre-owned vehicles because the brand has been ahead of the pack for a long time, meaning you can save a tremendous amount of money by purchasing a car that is a few years old and still get competitive features and performance. For example, the F-150 has had best-in-class performance for years, and whether you're a hobbyist or enthusiast, the F-150 has something to offer everybody.
Availability is another large part of the pre-owned market. The F-150 is the single best-selling vehicle in the country, and Ford produces around a million F-Series trucks every year. The story isn't restricted to the F-150 either––Ford has plenty of automobiles worth considering, like the full-size Ford Expedition, the compact Ford Escape, and the world-renowned Mustang, which draws a crowd even today.
Buying a used car also means having more choices––including vehicles and options that are no longer in production. Whether you want an affordable sedan like the Ford Fiesta or are looking for an F-150 diesel, buying used means that there are more ways to customize your shopping experience until you find the perfect Ford vehicle. The money you save by skipping the brand-new offerings can even go towards a higher-trim car equipped with more packages and better features.
Between pre-owned and new vehicles are Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) vehicles. CPO Ford vehicles have had a previous owner and aren't from the current model year, but they can be from as recently as one year ago, and the Ford Blue Advantage CPO program gives you benefits regularly reserved for brand-new Ford vehicles. What can you expect from the Ford CPO program?
Any Gold Certified Ford vehicle you purchase was released within the last six years, and you can guarantee there are under 80,000 miles on the odometer. Additionally, every car that is part of the Ford CPO program comes with a CARFAX vehicle history report and undergoes a 172-point inspection. From the most crucial components like the brakes and engines to the minutia, the vehicle will be good-as-new when you pick it up.
The Ford CPO program isn't only about the inspection and CARFAX report. When a driver purchases a Ford Gold Certified vehicle, they get two warranties and 24-hour roadside assistance. The first of the two warranties is a 12-month/12,000-mile Comprehensive Limited Warranty. The Limited Warranty covers multiple vehicle components from the exterior to the interior. This includes coverage for safety features, the infotainment center, electrical issues, broken speaker systems, and much more.
What about the powertrain? With the purchase of a Ford Gold Certified vehicle, Ford provides a 7-year/100,000-mile Powertrain Limited Warranty. Seven years is a generous timeframe for malfunction coverage, and 100,000 miles––which drivers are unlikely to reach before seven years have passed––is also highly respectable. Covering the brakes, transmission, engine block, gas lines, steering, and dozens of other parts, the Powertrain Limited Warranty ensures you'll get coverage should any manufacturer error occur within the warranty's time frame.
Your next Ford isn't going to choose itself, and there's no reason why you can't get some help along the way. Every Ford vehicle has the familiar badging, but that Ford logo is more than branding––it's a symbol that indicates quality. Your Ford vehicle will be the most crucial tool in your life, especially if you're looking for your next workhorse to get the job done right. At DePaula Ford, our mission is simple: we match our customers with a Ford vehicle they are excited about and one that fits their budget––because our prices are the best in the greater area of Albany, NY. If you're going to purchase a Ford vehicle, visit DePaula Ford today because the experience you will have at our dealership will leave a lasting impression on you!
