When it comes time to purchase your next vehicle, one of the biggest decisions is whether to buy a brand-new car or go with a used model. There are advantages and considerations to weigh on both sides. As a trusted auto dealer, Nelson Auto Center of Fergus Falls is here to help you make an informed choice that's right for your needs and budget.
Advantages of Buying a New Car
One of the biggest perks of buying a new car is that it comes with a manufacturer’s warranty, giving you peace of mind and protection against unexpected repairs. New cars also offer the latest features, technology, and safety systems. When you buy new, you can choose the exact specifications, options, and color you want. And of course, there’s nothing quite like that new-car smell!
Customers from the Fargo and Detroit Lakes area can explore an extensive selection of the latest new models at our dealership in Fergus Falls, MN — including popular choices like the new Ford Bronco and new Ford Explorer. With a new car, you know you’re getting a vehicle in pristine condition with no wear and tear or hidden history to worry about.
Benefits of Buying a Used Car
For many car shoppers in Alexandria, MN and beyond, buying used offers compelling advantages — the biggest being lower cost. Because new cars depreciate significantly in the first few years, you can often find a great deal on a used vehicle that’s only a few years old. Buying used also gives you a wider variety of makes and models that may fit your budget better than new.
At Nelson Auto Center of Fergus Falls, we have a diverse pre-owned inventory with options for every need and budget — including work-ready trucks like the pre-owned Ford F-150 and pre-owned Ford F-350. Many of our used vehicles are lease returns or local trade-ins that are only a few years old and still equipped with modern safety and tech features. Our expert service center inspects every used car and truck to ensure quality and reliability for our customers in the Wahpeton and Morris, MN area.
Making the Right Choice for You
Ultimately, the decision to buy new or used comes down to your priorities, preferences, and budget. Consider how long you’ll keep the vehicle and which features matter most. You can’t go wrong with either a new or used vehicle from Nelson Auto Center of Fergus Falls—and if you’re ready, you can apply for financing at Nelson Auto Center of Fergus Falls in minutes.
