There’s a lot of talk about Millennials, and not all of it is good. Say what you want about Millennials, but they are a practical group of customers who want the most comfortable car with the best performance for their money. If you’re a Millennial, here are some reasons why your next car purchase needs to be a used car at Scotti’s. 

Why Used?

Millennials have to be more careful with their money than previous generations. Many of the them have faced financial hardship due to the pandemic, as well as the Great Recession 10 years ago. They are also facing enormous amounts of student loan debt, and they will need to save money over the next few decades before they retire. 

It makes sense for Millennials, who were born between 1981 and 1996 to buy used. Buying used allows Millennials to get more car for their money. New cars, no matter how pretty and shiny, depreciate quickly. In fact, some car models will lose up to half of their value in a couple of years. Buying used means that you’ll be able to get the car you want–with a smaller car payment. What a financially sound purchase! 

Also, Millennials who buy used can take advantage of some great deals. You will get a break on your insurance, as buying a new car tends to be costlier on your insurance policy, which leads to higher premiums. With today’s certified pre-owned cars, which have to go through a thorough inspection process, you’ll be able to get a nearly-new car with the warranty intact. This means fewer car repair bills for you.
