Used Cars Prices Are On The Rise

PRLog (Press Release)– Apr 14, 2011– Prices for used cars are on the rise, especially for fuel efficient vehicles. Reasons for the recent spike include the high cost of gas in the United States (nearing $4 a gallon in some states) and the earthquake crisis in Japan which has slowed down production of many efficient cars such as the Toyota Prius. Another contributing factor to the rise in prices is the economy which appears to be in recovery mode; simply more people are shopping. Below are a few things to keep in mind when buying a used car.

You can browse used cars by taking a look inside your local newspaper, specialized auto classifieds publications or simply by surfing the internet.

Make sure to have the vehicle inspected in depth by a mechanic before you commit to a purchase. This is a very important step; inspection ensures that all systems are in working order and that the vehicle won't break down any time soon.
