Thinking about buying a new or pre-owned vehicle? Before you sign anything, you need a plan.

In this episode of Car Connection, we break down the Must - have vehicle shopping checklist to help you buy smart, stay on budget, and avoid ending up with a vehicle you don't actually want sitting in your driveway for the next 3, 5, or even 7years.

We cover:

1) How to define real needs vs wants

2) New vs used vehicle pros and cons

3) Budget planning beyond the monthly payment

4) Why rushing the purchase almost always leads to regret

This episode sets the foundation for our upcoming series on financing, purchasing, and leasing vs buying, where we'll dive deeper into the money side of vehicle ownership with real - world, no -BS advice.
