When thinking about buying a car for a high schooler, there are numerous factors to consider and multiple routes to take.
Student drivers often lean toward options like Facebook Marketplace or other online used car dealers. Often these services are unreliable and it is possible to receive a lesser product than expected or a car with masked flaws. With budget as a big aspect of choosing a car, students often rule out the possibility of buying a new car. It would be unreasonable and largely improbable for a student to purchase a new car in cash. However, there are more affordable options to take a brand new car home right from the dealership.
Trusted dealership names such as Tom O’Brien, Ray Skillman, or Hubler come to mind, and it is realistic and reliable to purchase a 2024 model for around $25,000 off the lot with a co-sign. These big names assure buyers the quality is top notch as they have a standard of excellence to uphold.
If price is the problem, sales representatives can help construct a payment plan that works. If teens take out a 36 month loan, they could have a 2024 car paid off in three years time. A car that should last you at least another decade. A loan for 60-72 months would have a less expensive monthly payment but for a longer period of time. All in all, this is guaranteeing a top of the line vehicle that could last you for the long haul.
When exploring new car options there are many benefits for new drivers. Looking at a 2024 Chevrolet Trax with a price range from $20,000-$25,000, countless safety features are included, such as automatic emergency braking, rear park assist, and even a teen driver mode. There are hundreds of options and certainly a car out there that comes in pristine condition with all the benefits of incredible fuel efficiency, safety features, and the latest technology
The final benefit of purchasing a new car would be the manufacturer’s warranty. Some companies guarantee up to 10 years of coverage. Other companies measure mileage and offer from 36,000 up to 60,000 miles covered. I would recommend buying a new car because of the guaranteed quality, reliability, style, safety, and all the latest comforts and technology.
