Buy New Or Used?

Should You Buy a New or Used Vehicle at Wiesner of Huntsville in Huntsville, TX

Are you torn between buying a new or a used vehicle at Wiesner of Huntsville? Our sales team can help! We aim to make car shopping a breeze for you. That’s why we’ll gladly answer all of your questions — such as providing this guide on buying a new vs. used Chevrolet, GMC, or Buick in Huntsville, Texas.

A Used Vehicle Costs Less up Front

Compare the price tag of a new and used vehicle side by side, and you’ll see a clear difference in cost. That’s because initial depreciation reduces a vehicle’s value by hundreds or even thousands of dollars during the first years of ownership. That is reflected in the reduced purchase price of a used Chevrolet, GMC, or Buick.

So, when you buy a used truck or SUV at Wiesner of Huntsville, you will pay less money to buy it than you would for a comparable model that was new from the factory. That means a used Silverado 1500 truck that’s 3-4 years old will cost less to buy at our Huntsville dealership than a comparably equipped new Silverado 1500 would.

A New Vehicle Could Save You Money in the Long Run

You may assume that buying a used car is a better way to save money. On the surface, that is true in some ways — such as the initial purchase price. However, buying a new Chevrolet, Buick, or GMC can provide plenty of value in different ways. You’ll realize that once you begin crunching the numbers.

Banks typically charge higher interest rates on loans for used cars than new cars. This is because there’s more risk and fluctuations in value associated with a pre-owned vehicle. You could pay as much money for a used Trax as a new one after you factor in 4-5 years of interest payments!

Plus, a new Chevy has a longer life ahead of it than a used Chevy does. So, you can expect to replace a pre-owned vehicle sooner than a new vehicle with no miles on its odometer. And, a new Chevrolet has warranties that may cover unexpected issues — issues that could cost you out of pocket to repair on a used Chevy with no warranty coverage.

Buying Used Gets You More Truck for Your Buck

Your dollar can go a lot further on a pre-owned Buick or GMC than a new one. Have you been eyeing a higher-trim Buick Encore GX or Sierra HD with more bells and whistles, but it’s a bit out of your price range? You can stick within your budget and get the upgraded model you want by purchasing it pre-owned.

Depreciation helps you afford a luxurious Avenir or Denali model at Wiesner of Huntsville. Premium features like leather seats, chrome accents, and a better audio system don’t cost as much when you buy a vehicle that’s had 1-2 prior owners.

Get the Exact Configuration You Want on a New Vehicle

Selection can be limited when you shop for a used vehicle. You’re stuck with what’s available, and the pickings can be slim sometimes if there’s a high demand. You have a lot more freedom in selection when you buy a new vehicle — especially when you custom-order one through Wiesner of Huntsville.

Can choose the trim level you want, the engine, the drivetrain, the paint color, and the interior design! Plus, you have access to dozens of factory-installed add-ons. This freedom is important if you need a specific truck configuration, such as a Sierra 1500 crew cab with a standard bed.
