What Kind of Used Car Should I Buy in Kennesaw, GA?

Searching for an affordable, reliable ride? Look no further than Cobb County Toyota! We have a wide selection of used sedans, trucks, SUVs and vans in various makes and models for you to choose from. Before you jumpstart your car-buying journey, you need to know what kind of vehicle would suit your lifestyle best. For some drivers, the answer is simple. However, there may be different factors you need to consider in order for your next ride to fit your needs. We understand that choosing the perfect vehicle can be overwhelming, so we’re here to help! Explore our guide below for tips on finding the diamond in the rough.

What do you need?

When buying used, the most obvious (and important) things to consider are your needs. Your lifestyle and family size will be significant factors in your decision. For example, if you’re single and require a car to get you to and from work every day, a sedan will do the trick. However, if you have a family of four with children that require car seats, a roomy SUV is the perfect fit. Need to haul heavy loads? A pickup truck is a rugged powerhouse that has incredible towing and payload capabilities.

We know that your needs may vary, and it may not be crystal clear which car checks off your boxes. If you need a model with a blend of features such as a spacious cabin with a hefty towing capacity, a crew cab pickup can meet both of those requirements. If you have further questions or need any help picking out your next pre-owned ride, feel free to contact us and we’ll be happy to help!

What do you want?

Your wants are just as important as your needs! Our team is committed to helping you find not only the car you require but also the car you’ll love. We recommend creating a list of must-have features that you desire within your future ride. Once you compile this information, you can use it as your guiding compass that’ll lead you to what type of used vehicle you should buy.

For instance, if you’re looking for heart-pounding thrills around every corner, a sports car can deliver incredible horsepower and impeccable performance. Want as much room as possible to fit all your friends and family? An SUV can provide enough room for passengers and cargo — so you won't have to leave your favorite outdoor chair at home when you take your next camping trip. With technology ever evolving, many of today’s used models include features such as touchscreen navigation systems and driver assistance. No matter if you crave a sedan, sports car, truck or minivan, we’ve got exactly what you’re looking for.

What is your budget?

Last but certainly not least, you need to nail down what your budget is for your next car purchase. Determine how much you can comfortably afford to help narrow down your available options — never spend beyond your means! But don’t fret: Shopping on a budget doesn’t have to ruin the fun. Here at Cobb County Toyota, we have plenty of options with affordable prices. In fact, we have a range of used models priced under $20k.

There will always be models that will be priced lower than others due to characteristics such as features and capabilities. However, if there’s a car you love that’s out of your budget, you may be able to afford a slightly older model year that contains features similar to those in its newer counterpart. What are you waiting for? Let us help you find the ride of your dreams today!

Owning an EV is an experience unlike anything else, especially when you have your friends at Cherokee County Toyota to service your model. Any questions?
