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 industry

With 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 history

In 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 retailer

The Federal Trade Commission recommends that consumers consider a car retailer’s reputation when deciding where to purchase a used car.

Can I buy a cheap used car after I have my court hearing with Chapter 7 bankruptcy?
Q. My court hearing for meeting the creditors/trustee is on July 10th for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in Florida. I was wonder since my household only have 1 car. I really need to have a extra car for me to use for work instead of using my spouse car. I'm planning to pay cash for a cheap used car but I need to know will it be a problem once after I do my court hearing? Well I guess I have to wait for the letter of discharge right?? How long does that usually take?

A. You should wait until the BK is final; the reason is 1) you are not supposed to have that much cash 2) you should not change your assets until he BK is final 3) a creditor may throw a monkey wrench in the works and you have to answer some more questions under oath before it is all done, and you would have to reveal the car or risk having your BK thrown out 5) there is too much risk for too little reward 6) if you absolutely cannot live and I mean get to work, see if you can rent one for the interim from a "junk car rental place" 7) you NEED to not change your status at all until it is final 8) you should be asking your BK attorney this question I hope you have beed advised that you cannot increase your income AT ALL until your BK is… [cont.]

A. I had a Honda civic for 6 years, and I am sorry I got rid of it. It had great gas miles, and plenty of power, and was the most reliable car I ever owned, and toyotas are very dependable too. Happy shopping.

When buying a used car from a dealer are they supposed to provide current auto registration?
Q. I just bought a used car from a Toyota dealership and noticed that the tags on the license plate are expired. Are they supposed to provide current tags for the vehicle registration? Shouldn't any vehicle have current tags especially ones for sale at dealerships? Any information would be great. Thanks.

A. It is the buyers responsibility to pay the registration fee not the seller.
