The mileage of a car is a very important factor.
A report from the US Department of Transportation’s Federal Highway Administration states that the average person drives more than 14,000 miles each year.
All of that adds up to wear and tear on the car.
You need to take this into account when making your decision. Some vehicles can rack up a lot of thousands without missing a beat. So once you know how old the car is and how many miles it has, you can figure out how much use the vehicle has been put to.
¿Tiene el carro algún problema mecánico?
Let’s take a look under the hood, even if you don’t really know what you’re looking at.
Here’s a pro tip: the engine is the first thing you should check. Make sure the engine bay is clean and free of fluid leaks.
You’ll also want to make sure the car passes a smog and safety inspection, which are required by many states.
If you’re not sure about all the ins and outs under the hood, take a friend or family member with you who knows such things.
Chances are they’ll be happy to help you, and you’ll feel better knowing you have an extra set of eyes there.
