Why to Buy Used Versus New

Deciding to purchase a car can be extremely daunting, especially if you are living on a tight budget and can’t afford much. Choosing to buy a used car versus a new one will save you tons of money. With a new car, many people feel as if you must worry about every spec of dirt that enters the car door. Driving a used vehicle allows you to be more relaxed instead of worrying about keeping up with the car’s “brand new” look. If you are in need of a vehicle, consider coming by Autoland to check out our selection that won’t have you breaking the bank. Here are a few reasons to consider a pre-owned car:

• By deciding to buy a used car, you will be spending less than half the price of the average new car. In fact, you will find that some cars that are a mere three or four years old are larger and more luxurious than the minimalistic new cars.

• You will be saving a good deal on insurance costs. One of the main ways that insurance companies

• Expect to spend even less money on registration fees. The fee that the state charges to register is based on the transaction price of the car, just as with insurance.

• You will be getting more for your dollar by buying used. A car that is only one or two years old can drive and look just as good as new. It was thought that a car could run for 100,000 miles and that was the cutting off point, but we are finding more often than not that cars are running to 200,000 miles.

• With companies available to produce vehicle history reports, you are less at risk to buy a car with lots of problems and defects. These reports are based on the car’s VIN number and can provide all sorts of useful information.

• Similar to a report, we sell certified pre-owned cars. These are vehicles that meet the standards of a certain manufacturer and guarantee against certain defects.

Crowds of people have been stopping into New Jersey’s top Toyota dealer asking to test drive these popular mid-size sedans.

As one of the best ranking, the newly designed Genesis has given some of the highest safety ratings in its class. What’s not to love? Genesis remains one of the best values on the market. Although the price might be slightly higher than that of a Camry or Accord, the perks of driving such a fresh, luxury sedan exceeds its worth. Let’s take a closer look:

• Features – The upscale interior of this sleek car shouldn’t be underestimated. The quality of the material used on the inside of the Genesis is both expensive and sleek. The front seats can adjust to any position possible, but the main attraction is the back seats. Roomier and comfier than ever, the back seat feels as if you are sitting in the lap of luxury. The smooth and quiet ride is perfect for a long, peaceful drive no matter where you’re going.

Reasons to Look Forward to the 2015 Hyundai Sonata

If you haven’t seen the new commercial for the 2015 Hyundai Sonata online or while watching TV, expect to see it soon. The Korean car manufacturer released the ad just a couple months ago to feature the sedan’s brand new design. The minute long commercial is scored to a languid, slow instrumental track that will have you in a daze. The soothing music interjects the idea that riding this sleek automobile will be just as calming. We get a glimpse of what both the exterior and interior of the 2015 model looks like but not much more information than what are eyes can see. Since the commercial gave us only hints of what to expect, we wanted to give our customers some more exciting information:

Why Do You See So Many Toyota Camrys in New Jersey?

The Toyota Camry is a popular car, and if you look around on any busy street, you'll notice there's almost no car more common than the Toyota Camry in NJ. Why does NJ have such a love affair with the Camry? Here are five reasons:

1.  Because a mid-size sedan is the best size – I mean, we have nothing against compacts if you're single or SUVs if you really need one, but the reality is that most of us do want to be able to have a few friends or our kids fit into a vehicle without any hassle, and don't need to haul farm equipment. Even a full-sized sedan can seem like a bit of a gas guzzler with today's pump prices. The Toyota Camry found the right size vehicle for typical, everyday use and it stuck with it.

2.  It's a proven model – The Toyota Camry has been around since 1982, which is longer than many New Jersey working professionals have been alive. With 30 years of sales behind them, there are plenty of Toyota Camrys on NJ roads no matter what – and since Toyotas tend to last, the old ones don't fade away. Nowadays, the long history behind the Camry is exactly why so many people prefer the model, knowing that it's reliable and has all the kinks worked out.

3.  Gas efficiency – This is a big one. If you're stepping into the world of bigger-than-compact cars, you'll find quickly that your gas mileage expectations have to plummet. The Camry offers an exception to this rule however, delivering impressive mileage both on the highway and in the city. For a four-door sedan, it can't be beat.

4.  Safety – The Toyota Camry (and Toyota overall) is known for getting some of the best safety assessments from organizations like the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Toyota frequently paves the way for the auto industry with new safety features that others quickly copy. When you drive down the road in a Toyota Camry, you know you're in one of the safest vehicles on the street.

5.  Cost and value – This is perhaps the biggest item on this list. While it's possible to find a cheaper car than a Toyota Camry, the manufacturer is renowned for offering amazing quality at extremely affordable prices. Toyota has some of the most impressive engineering in the industry and their cars are built to last.
