Both my cars were purchased from dealerships. They were roughly 12-18 months old with less than 20,000 miles on them. I saved 35-40% off buying new.

Buying a brand new car is for suckers.

You have bought into the lie that buying used is better than buying new.

That is not true.

IF you saved 35-40 percent, then you saved it off of MSRP.

And nobody pays that.

In the long run... buying new is the better way to go.

Sometimes new makes sense if you take care of your new car and keep it a long time.

In my family we used to do this when I was young. My dad gets a new car, his car goes to mom, mom’s go to older brother and I get his car. Mine is ready for the junkyard.
