FAQs
What’s the difference between used and CPO?
While our used inventory is full of reliable models, our Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) selection takes it up a notch. Our CPO inventory is considered the best of the best out of our like-new models. This is because they undergo rigorous inspections from yours truly and the manufacturer. The model has to meet the age and mileage restrictions, as well as pass a multipoint inspection. Plus, you’ll get to enjoy special warranties with a CPO vehicle that you won’t be able to find with a regular used model.
What is good mileage on a used car?
The answer to this question varies from model to model, but in general, the average mileage that deems a car “undriveable” continues to climb compared to the previous decade. This is due to the innovative powertrain technology that continues to evolve within vehicles year after year. Typically, the modern car shouldn’t run into issues until around the 200,000-mile threshold. Some can even last up to 300,000 miles! Of course, this depends on the make and model of the car, so do some research into what the average lifespan is for your preferred vehicle.
How do I know that I’m getting a good deal?
When you shop at Griffin Chevrolet of Sylvester, you’ll definitely get to enjoy the best possible deal. However, don’t take our word for it — conduct your own research through third-party tools like Kelley Blue Book® or Edmunds and receive accurate price estimates for your dream ride. These numbers will change month over month, so make sure you grasp the fluctuating market and where it stands currently. Don’t forget to use our handy online trade-in appraisal tool if you want to swap your current ride and save on your next one.
Why should I buy from a dealership?
We could go on and on about the benefits of buying from a dealership like ours. If you’re looking to have a secure transaction no matter if you’re purchasing or leasing, Griffin Chevrolet of Sylvester can promise that. We are committed to providing our customers with full disclosure and transparent pricing. In addition, we frequently offer used car specials and special financing on some of our like-new models. If you ever need regular maintenance, we’ve got your back for that, too! Rolling the dice on a private party could yield a sketchy transaction without a guarantee that you can contact them if they’re needed. So, why take the chance? Put your trust in us and confidently cruise out of our lot.
