New vehicles come with much more than curb appeal. While you may like the applause from your friends and family members for purchasing a new vehicle, there are many reasons why this is the best option.

Reliability and Warranty Protection: New Toyota cars are reliable. You can drive one without worrying about unexpected mishaps. And a three-year manufacturer’s warranty probably covers anything that would go wrong. Plus, since the vehicle is new, you don’t have to worry about how the previous owners treated it.

Latest tech and Features: All 2024 Toyotas come with the latest technology features. For example, instead of a 10.1-inch display, most feature massive 13.4-inch touchscreens plus separate 12.3-inch Driver Information Centers. They also have branded multi-speaker audio systems for pithy sound.

Free Roadside Assistance:As part of the insurance package for a new Toyota vehicle, you’ll get free roadside assistance. If, for any reason, the car breaks down, you won’t have to pay towing bills out of pocket. Plus, there’s no need to secure separate coverage.

Better Financing Deals: Our Toyota dealership at Dry Ridge, KY, offers great financing deals on new Toyotas. You should be able to get zero money down offers, cashback, and attractive interest rates from our finance center. In the end, financing a new Toyota is less expensive.

Free Maintenance:New vehicles only require basic maintenance. Even so, the owner doesn’t pay for the minimally required maintenance. That’s because the manufacturer covers all vehicle maintenance costs through the dealership service center.

While a certified pre-owned vehicle is slightly used, it cannot be sold without a thorough manufacturer inspection. Plus, it has a manufacturer-backed extended warranty. Therefore, a CPO vehicle is more reliable than a vehicle. For a Toyota vehicle to be CPO-certified, it must meet the following conditions:

• Used for not more than six years after first-time purchase
• Mileage of up to 85,000 miles
• Pass the manufacturer’s 160-point quality assurance inspection

Buying a CPO vehicle is beneficial in many ways, including the following:

Warranty Coverage: Toyota gives a 12-month or 12,000-mile comprehensive warranty for all its CPO vehicles. Besides, buyers get a 7-year or 100,000-mile powertrain warranty. However, CPO warranties are limited compared to the bumper-to-bumper warranties of new cars.

Roadside Assistance: Additional manufacturer-backed benefits on CPO Toyota vehicles include roadside assistance and a free vehicle history report. Roadside assistance is helpful whenever your car breaks down unexpectedly. Thus, you do not have to pay towing charges out of your pocket. Roadside assistance is available for 12 months for all Toyota CPO vehicles.

Special Financing Deals: From time to time, Marshall Dry Ridge Toyota offers special financing for buyers of CPO vehicles. These deals may include reduced interest rates if you have excellent credit. To learn more about the available special financing deals, don’t hesitate to contact our finance center.

Free Maintenance: In addition to the one-year warranty, manufacturers provide free CPO vehicle maintenance. At our service center, that includes oil changes and other aspects that keep the vehicle in roadworthy condition for longer. It is better than buying used vehicles, which you must maintain yourself.

Used vehicles are those that have been owned before. They also include certified pre-owned vehicles. However, for the sake of this discussion, we shall consider used vehicles that aren’t CPOs. Although they lack a dealership warranty, buying a used vehicle can be significant in many ways, including the following:

Negotiable Prices: It’s possible to negotiate the price of a used car. If the dealership agrees, you will make significant savings.

Extended Warranty: You can purchase an extended warranty since there’s no dealership warranty. That is enough to protect you against possible future mishaps.

Depreciation: Used cars have already undergone depreciation, which is a reduction in value because of usage. For example, used vehicles may lose up to 20% of their value in the first year. The vehicle’s first owner mainly absorbs that, so the used car buyer doesn’t lose much to depreciation.

Vehicle History: Checking a vehicle’s history is easy. Besides safecar.gov, you can use Autocheck and CarFax to discover instances when the car was involved in an accident in the past.
