The best financing options depend on your financial situation. Banks typically offer lower interest rates compared to dealer financing, but dealers might offer special promotions. Credit unions often have the most favorable terms for their members. Always compare the Annual Percentage Rate (APR) rather than just the monthly payment.
As a general rule, budget about 1-2% of the vehicle's value annually for maintenance. Luxury vehicles and performance bikes tend to have higher maintenance costs. Electric vehicles generally have lower maintenance costs than their fuel counterparts.
New vehicles offer warranties, the latest features, and peace of mind, but they depreciate quickly. Used vehicles offer better value and lower insurance costs, but may have hidden issues. Certified pre-owned vehicles offer a middle ground with dealer inspections and limited warranties.
End of the month, quarter, or year are typically good times as dealers try to meet sales targets. Major festivals and holiday seasons often come with special discounts. For the latest models, waiting a few months after launch can help avoid premium pricing.
