Ask the seller if a manufacturer warranty is still available on this vehicle. Generally manufacturer warranties cover some or all vehicle components and cover the vehicle for the first 3 years/36,000 miles but do vary from each manufacturer.
Dealers often can offer an extended warranty which extends coverage beyond the manufactures warranty so be sure to ask about extended warranties.
Financing
Independent dealers may offer in-house financing which are generally known as Buy Here Pay Here dealers. Generally no credit check is required however you may pay a higher interest rate.
Independent dealers may not offer in-house financing so it is up to you to secure your auto financing or pay cash for the vehicle. If you qualify for financing from your bank or credit union you will more then likely get a much better interest rate. You can also choose an online lender like this and get nearly instant approval to take to the dealer:
Ask the dealer what kind of financing is available for this Truck.
Franchise dealers generally offer in-house financing but may also try to find you financing from one of their many financial institution partners. Interest rates are normally lower than the Buy Here Pay Here dealers.
Private sellers will list their cash price for the Truck and are often lower price than a dealer. Ask the private seller for a bill of sale which can act as a receipt and will be required to obtain a tag from your local tag office.
Trade-In
Ask the dealer about trading-in your vehicle. They may not offer as much for your trade-in as if you were to sell it yourself but it is a more instant process if you do not want to go to the hassle of selling it yourself.
You can save thousands over the trade-in price if you do take the time to sell the vehicle yourself on a site like this and may not have to pay sales tax.
