A used car, a pre-owned vehicle, or a second hand car, is a vehicle that has previously had one or more retail owners. Used cars are sold through a variety of outlets, including franchise and independent car dealers, rental car companies, leasing offices, auctions, and private party sales. Some car retailers offer "no-haggle prices," "certified" used cars, and extended service plans or warranties. Used car industryWith annual sales of nearly $370 billion, the used vehicle industry represents almost half of the U.S. auto retail market and is the largest retail segment of the economy. In 2005, about 44 million used cars were sold in the U.S., which is more than double that of the nearly 17 million new cars sold. Used Car historyIn 1898, the Empire State Motor Wagon Company in Catskill, New York is one of the very first American used car lots. The used vehicle market is substantially larger than other large retail sectors, such as the school and office products market ($206 billion in estimated annual sales) and the home improvement market ($291 billion in estimated annual sales). Used vehicle retailerThe Federal Trade Commission recommends that consumers consider a car retailer’s reputation when deciding where to purchase a used car. From Wikipedia under the

To buy a used car, make sure its below 60,000 miles if its an American car such as GM, Ford, or chrysler or 80,000 miles or less if its a Honda, toyota, acura, infiniti etc.. make sure it has no problems with engine and transmission make sure engine light is not on make sure the tires are not worn out, otherwise ask for a lesser price as tires can cost up to 700 dollars or more make sure you get a carfax report but do not fully depend on the report. ask if it has been in an accident ask how many owners for the car so far, less is better ask for all of the maintenance receipts that they have done so far for the car so you can keep them as a reference of what has been done for the car. its better to buy a car that is less than 8 years old… [cont.] Answered by changethis - Mon Apr 6 03:42:14 2009 What type of Used car would you recommend for Delivery work?

Asked by Kurt - Sat May 26 00:05:09 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. Ok, I don't know exactly, but I would think an older model of the Dodge Caravan would be great for you. You can try googling all this, and look up another car, but this is good or close to it on gas (I think it is 20-25MPG), and it is really spacious. Also, they are quite cheap, even the new models. So you might want to look into this vehicle, but one problem I can think of is the engine. I really don't know the engine specs, and it might have some trouble. This may be but, it is a very popular vehicle, so it probably isn't that bad. I hope this helps.

If I were you I would try a site like GovernmentAuctions.org You could see prices of cars up for auction from the comfort of your own home. The best part is that the cars on the site are either surplus or seized. Some of them are practically new. Not many people are savvy to how government auctions work. I have used the site in the past and have been very satisfied with my purchases. Answered by Carlos M - Fri Jul 31 15:24:29 2009 From Yahoo Answer Search: "used car"
