Benefits of Purchasing a Used Subaru

Unlike buying just any used car, a used Subaru comes with a variety of economic and safety benefits that Subaru lovers have known for decades. What's even better is that you can find a huge selection of both pre-owned and certified pre-owned Subaru vehicles right here at Young Subaru in Ogden. We're committed to finding you the right vehicle at the right price. 

Most cars have predictable points where they will begin falling apart, and the most common point is generally at the 70,000 mile mark. At 70,000 miles, belts are brittle, brakes are thin, and transmissions are starting to become a little loose. With a Subaru, however, the 70,000 mile mark is just another random mile mark. Simply put, there are few more reliable used cars than a used Subaru.

If you like all-wheel-drive vehicles, you will love the fact that a Subaru can go just about anywhere. Additionally, it can do so in just about any type of weather. Because of the all-wheel-driver features you can find in these vehicles, you remain in control, and the tires grip the road whether you are driving in snow, mud, or rain. Barring some pretty extreme conditions, there are few vehicles known for their ability to just head out on the road and just drive--no matter what.

It is true that many cars will last for 100,000 miles or more if it is carefully maintained. A Subaru, however, has a recognized lifespan that easily covers above and beyond that mileage range. In fact, Subaru owners are often fanatics about their cars, taking care of them and bragging about how their vehicles have lasted for decades. 

 

While many vehicles enjoy a good manufacturing year or two and then end up falling apart for several more years, Subaru manufacturing tends to be consistently superior from one year to another. For instance, Subaru models are great from early 2000 to 2010. Additionally, used models made from 2011 to 2019 are sometimes hard to get because they are so popular.

Excellent cars come with excellent reputations, and used Subaru vehicles have been included in top used-car lists for years. For instance, US News and World Report lists it as one of the top mid-size brands you can buy. Business Insider lists it as among the top seven used brands you should consider. Since 2012, Fortune magazine has stated rather clearly that Subaru vehicles are among the best used or new cars to buy. In fact, the solid reputation surrounding Subaru is a point of pride for Young Subaru as we maintain our top reputation by selling only the best cars.

That said, it is not simply respected journals that tout the quality of a Subaru. In fact, the best reports come from owners. Because these vehicles last well over fifteen years, their owners always have something good to say about them. Unsurprisingly, the vast majority of Subaru owners who eventually sell their cars do exactly what you might expect by going out and buying another Subaru.

One of the reasons someone wants to purchase a used vehicle is because it will likely cost much less than a new one. In fact, it is well known that a new car loses value the moment you pull out of the parking lot and onto the street. When it comes to looking at your car as an investment, you will be glad to know that a Subaru truly holds its value. Depending on how long you have it and how carefully you care for the vehicle, it will likely be worth as much as seventy to eighty percent of what you paid for it.
