Your initial step should always be to reflect on what you'll want on your checklist. Make a list of all the things you want from a vehicle, as well as all the things it needs to do. A soccer mom may need extra seating for carpooling and lots of room for sports equipment, while a bachelor or bachelorette might enjoy a smaller sportscar for zipping around town and easily parking in tight spaces.

Second, consider money; what is your price variety? A typical rule-of-thumb is to set your highest budgeted amount at 20 % of your take-home pay. For example, someone making $50,000 should designate $10,000 as their maximum purchase price. When making this decision, you should consider the cost of owning the car, paying for gas, and your other associated bills. You may adjust your budget accordingly.

Now that you have considered your needs and the potential costs, try searching online to learn more about the options available at used car dealers. Most larger dealerships have websites with their inventory and search tools designed to help you look for your desired features and prices. Get a feel for what's out there and get in touch with the dealer before going to the lot to confirm the details.

Next, check the vehicle history on a site like Carfax.com. If the vehicle checks out, schedule a test drive of the car, and try to test it on roads like the ones you would generally encounter during your day-to-day routine. Ask any used car dealers you visit for records. After considering all the aspects of the car and whether it fits your budget, make an offer to a trusted salesperson.

While negotiating, feel free to take time to consider counter-offers, use the bathroom, or eat a meal. There should be no rush when making this decision, and the salesperson should help you feel at ease.

First you need to ask yourself some questions: What's your dream ride? What models do you like best? How old should it be, and how many miles should it have? Just how much are you going to spend? By answering these questions, you'll have a better idea of what you really want and what you're willing to settle for. If you know this before you walk into a dealership you'll have a much easier time negotiating a fantastic deal on the car you want.
