Should I Rent-to-Own My Next Car?
If you need a car but can’t afford the full purchase price, you have a few options to choose from. However, if you have an opportunity to improve your credit, those choices are limited: financing a car requires taking out a loan, and many loan servicers can’t help those with a bad credit score, or who don’t have one.
However, the rent-to-own program at Jimmy Granger Used Cars is here to help! Renting to own a car can be a great way to get the car you need to commute to work, take your kids to school, or head on adventures across the country. Plus, getting approved for rent-to-own financing is easy regardless of your credit!
Benefits of Purchasing a Used Vehicle
At Jimmy Granger Used Cars, we strive to provide customers in Shreveport, Stonewall, Barksdale, and beyond with a large selection of high-quality used vehicles. We understand that many customers struggle to decide if they want their next vehicle purchase to be new or pre-owned, and we are here to help make that decision easier. There are several factors that you will need to consider when purchasing a vehicle, including budget, depreciation, and the type of vehicle that you are interested in. Let the team at Jimmy Granger Used Cars help you walk through these factors, along with others, to understand the benefits of purchasing a used vehicle.
Better Deal for Your Budget
Before purchasing a vehicle, it is likely that you already have a budget in mind that you do not want to exceed. While purchasing a brand new car may fit within your budget, you may find that the vehicle you can afford may not have the features you would like, as top features are typically not available on lower trim levels. If you consider purchasing a used or Certified Pre-Owned vehicle in that same price range, you may be able to purchase the same model you were considering, but in a higher trim level that gives you the features, you are looking for. Check out our vehicles priced under $15k to find the best deals on a used vehicle from our dealership.
Depreciation
A common complaint from car buyers is how quickly a new car depreciates once it leaves the lot. The depreciation value for a new car drops as soon as you drive away from the dealership, and it will continue to drop by a large percentage over the first few years of ownership. With a used vehicle, the bulk of the depreciation has already occurred.
Larger Vehicle Selection
When visiting a new car lot, you will likely only have one brand to choose from, giving you fewer options to choose from. If you aren’t impressed with the selection, you will have to start over and visit another dealership. With over 200 used cars, trucks, and SUVs from a variety of makes and models available at Jimmy Granger Used Cars, you will have an endless selection of models to choose from! Our inventory even includes a selection of pre-owned 2020 models, meaning you can pay a cheaper price for a vehicle that is practically brand new!
Certified Pre-Owned Options
If you are worried about the reliability of a used vehicle, our Certified Pre-Owned Lincoln and Ford models are a perfect choice for you! Our Certified Pre-Owned models offer an extended warranty and roadside assistance to give you peace of mind. What’s more, all of our Certified Pre-Owned models are only a few years old and go through an extensive inspection to ensure they are top quality.
