When it comes to used RAM trucks, Hall Chrysler Dodge Jeep® RAM of Virginia Beach has an inventory that can’t be beaten. We make it easy to save big on the vehicles you like best, and we’re sharing all you need to know about picking out the next pre-owned pickup truck. Here are a few things to look for when test-driving used RAM trucks.
Signs of Corrosion
While most damage can be repaired or addressed, corrosion and rust are very difficult to manage. It’s costly and nearly impossible to fully repair rust, so it’s best to move on to the next model if you notice the signs.
That said, we fully refurbish every model before they ever reach our lots, so we doubt this will be an issue.
Damage to the Tires
The tires on a vehicle can tell us a lot about how the car was driven and maintained. Our RAM trucks are more than capable, but you want to look at the tires to see if the vehicle was used for a lot of off-road or rough-terrain driving. At the very least, this will tell you what to look for when it comes to the inspection process.
Used RAM Truck Mileage
While it’s important to consider the age of a vehicle, you want to pay closer attention to the mileage than the years. This tells you how hard the car was driven and what parts or systems might need repairs or replacements soon.
Service and Accident History
When purchasing a pre-owned vehicle, you always want to look at the service and accident history. A well-maintained vehicle with a comprehensive history will be easier to care for in the future, and knowing what kind of repairs have been done and damage has been sustained will help you to set your budget.
Here at Hall Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM of Virginia Beach, you’ll find a wide collection of RAM trucks to pick from. We’re also the team you can rely on throughout the pre-owned vehicle purchasing process, with the tools, resources, and tips to get you started.
