Why Buy an Older Ford Model Today?

After a couple of years of a global pandemic, global chip shortages, and problems with the production lines, the car industry is healing, but it’s not quite there. Ivan Drury from Edmunds stated that competing for new cars will be hard as shortages continue in 2023. The industry hasn’t seen the end of it yet.

An inventory shortage means new vehicles are hard to find and sell above MSRP. This has left many car shoppers turning to the used car market.

Advantages of Buying Used/Pre-Owned at Mathews Ford Sandusky

• Availability: You can visit our lot and check our used and certified inventory. You can even contact us and schedule a test drive if you have found something that caught your eye online. Our vast selection guarantees you’ll find exactly what you need.
• Price: Used/certified pre-owned cars are more affordable than current models. The differences between a new model and a used one might be minuscule, depending on the model. You might be getting all the perks at a lower price tag.
• Insurance: This tends to be cheaper as well for pre-owned vehicles. These cars have been proven on the road. Some could even still have a valid original factory warranty.
• Certification: Certified cars are an excellent investment. These vehicles have been tested and are guaranteed to function just as well as any new car.

Inspection Process

All certified vehicles undergo a rigorous inspection process performed by Ford-trained technicians.

Blue-certified vehicles must pass a 139-point inspection, including vehicle history, road test, diagnostics, underhood and underbody components, hybrid system, and convenience features.

Gold certification requires a 172-point inspection encompassing exterior & interior conditions in addition to those covered by the Blue certification.

Blue and Gold certifications include checking the CARFAX Vehicle History Report for odometer issues, fire and frame damages, branded titles, flood and salvage vehicles, and accident and vehicle title histories.
