The Top 3 Reasons to Buy a Used Car in 2025 in Tacoma
Even in a pandemic, you still need to get around. But to avoid contact with the coronavirus you should not be taking a bus.
That means you'll need a car to commute to work, do weekly shopping, get your hair cut, or drive your kids around. You'll also want to avoid airplanes, so load your family into the car and go on a road trip instead.
If you're in the market for a car but you're not sure whether to buy a new or a used one, here are three reasons that used cars are such a great deal at Gilchrist Tacoma.

The #1 reason to buy a used car right now is availability.
The coronavirus has temporarily stopped auto manufacturing, and many dealerships have low or no inventory of popular cars and trucks. But the shutdown has not affected the used-car market.
In fact, used cars reflect what most consumers want in the first place. And supply and demand dictates that you'll find what you need when you shop for a used car.
The #2 reason to buy a used car is value.
As soon as you drive a new car home, it starts losing value. When you buy a used car, that's not so much the case.
Buying a used car also provides you with greater flexibility because manufacturers aren’t setting the price. Used-car prices are determined based on the model, location, trim, mileage, and the condition a car is in.
That means that buying a used car saves you money.
The #3 reason that you should consider a used car is quality.
Today, used cars are better than ever. And certified pre-owned (CPO) vehicles are a great value considering how much car you get.
Before we list a CPO car for sale, it goes through an extensive inspection and certification so that that it meets our high standards.
But we inspect all our used cars before we put them on our lot. We sell only quality used cars that you'll be able to drive—trouble-free—for a good, long time.
