3 Things Every First Time Car Buyer Should Do

First Time Car Buyers

If you are new to the car buying scene you may have experienced some common feelings: Exhaustion, anxiety and confusion. Sound like you? It doesn’t have to be like this! With the help of a trusted automotive professional and a little research on your part, you can find the perfect vehicle for you and your needs without experiencing any of these seemingly terrible feelings! It can actually be quite an enjoyable experience for those who love to shop or are anxious to get behind the wheel of their very own vehicle. We’ve come up with a short list of the MUST do’s when considering buying your very first vehicle.

Research

Think you know what kind of car you’re looking for? Take the time to research features and models that are important to you. Doing a little research before stepping foot on the lot will help you find the best deals and know when to walk away. It can also empower you to make decisions and help calm your nerves. When you understand more about what you’re buying you will know exactly where you money is going and you may also lift the rose colored glasses on some features or add ons that can be costly. If you aren’t a big music lover, paying for that sound system really isn’t worth the extra speaker, maybe you don’t need the 8-way power adjustable seat but you would like leather detailing. Learn the value and assess what’s important to you before you’re overwhelmed by choice and price tags.

Build a Budget

When you are really excited about that big purchase it can get easy to get lost in all the features, add ons and new model upgrades thrown your way. To keep yourself from getting distracted by all the bells and whistles of a new vehicle, make a budget prior to heading to the dealership. If you have any shopping companions, tell them your budget and get them to help you stick with it! It’s easy to say yes to the added features when you see their seemingly small price next to the larger, overall price of your vehicle but these things add up quickly. Don’t let a $100 or $200 there throw off your finances. If you’ve done your research you know what kind of vehicle and the features that you can afford. Stick to it!

Shop Around

Now that you know what you want and you know how much you have to spend, you’re ready to shop! Take the time to cruise a couple different dealerships not just for pricing but for salespeople. Great sales staff will make a difference for you and your vehicle. If you walk on a lot and someone is pushing you into a vehicle you don’t really want, they might not have your best interest at heart. Shopping around will also allow you to find a trustworthy individual to help you find a payment plan that will work for you. Don’t worry, there are not sneaky sales people all over the place, trust your instincts and come armed with your knowledge of how much things cost, and how much you can spend.

If you are looking for your very first vehicle, it can be easy to become overwhelmed. Using some of these points you can make the process a little smoother and even enjoy your experience!

Frank Myers Auto Maxx Presents The Great American Car Swap

How’d you feel when you started reading this blog post and saw Uncle Sam staring at you – pointing his finger at your face? He’s one serious dude, isn’t he? Uncle Sam doesn’t fool around. Neither do I. My name is Tracy Myers, I’m the owner of Frank Myers Auto Maxx and I mean business. The car business.

So that’s why I’m writing to ask you a very important question. Who else wants to swap their old ride for a nicer, newer car and get paid for the pleasure? 

You see, trading something you’re bored with for something new and exciting is no longer just for flea markets and swap meets. Baseball cards, stamps, coins and other trinkets are the traditional fare for swapping, but I’m upping the ante and modernizing the swap meet with the most anticipated savings event of 2012 – The Great American Car Swap. 

I’ve banded together with dealers from across the nation to give Americans this chance to get rid of the old car they hate driving. 

The Great American Car Swap is good for business and good for America. This is an event that may never happen again! I’m pulling out all the stops to make this SWAP one for the record books! I don’t think anyone should have to drive a car they aren’t excited about and during this event, I don’t want to see anyone leave without a nicer, newer car! That’s why I’m offering up to $4,297.00 more for the old car you’re tired of.

During the Great American Car Swap Winston Salem residents get a chance to lower their car payment, reduce their down payment or get a nicer, newer car with extra upgrades (for the same amount of cash).

Be warned, not all dealers are participating in The Great American Car Swap. I’ve joined forces with like-minded dealers across the country to make this event happen. We’ve spent months planning and are proud to stand together to change America, one car and one family at a time. 

We want to do our part to make America a better place to live.  I’ve read the reports that say Americans are not the happiest people on the planet. Forbes ranked us #10. I’m trying to change that – Americans have always had a love affair with the automobile; my goal is to help more people fall in love (and find happiness) during The Great American Car Swap.”

The Great American Credit Score

Many Americans have something in common – a credit score they aren’t too proud of. Generally this is due to circumstances beyond their control, bad timing or a string of unfortunate events. Most Americans don’t realize how important their credit score really is until they need to get a loan. That’s when they realize they need help and often don’t know where to turn.

I’m working extra hard to help local people in tough situations like these. Here’s my big news . . . This month, I’m introducing my 4G Credit Approval Upgrade. I figured if the cell phone companies can do it, so can I!

My “Everybody Rides 4G Credit Approval Process”

Works to Solve CREDIT Problems . . . 

Up to 4X FASTER

Up to 4X EASIER

offers up to 4X MORE FORGIVNESS

and delivers up to 4X more APPROVAL!

I really want to help people get the car they want and deserve. I’m determined not to allow credit challenges to stand in my way.

The 4G Upgrade works to enhance the already highly effective “Everybody Rides Credit Approval Process.” The goal – to get people approved up to 4 times faster, while making the whole approval

process up to 4 times easier, offering up to 4 times more forgiveness so that in the end, up to 4 times more people drive away in a nicer, newer car. 4 times more approval means up to 4 times more happiness!

Take Back Your Happiness Today!

Time to upgrade your life and lifestyle with a nicer, newer set of wheels.

Ford Escape In Winston Salem Finds A Happy Home

https://www.FrankMyersAutoReviews.com – This incredible post showed up on Facebook April 28th, 2012. It was intended for a member of our Non-Commissioned Sales Team. I saw it, took a screen shot of it and had to share it.

“I told you the Ford Escape I’m driving I bought from there. I’ve experienced my name called out over the loud speaker and everyone clapping. Here’s a true story sales pitch for ya. During the carolina cash for clunkers last year they gave me something like 4,100 for a car I paid 300.00 for. AWESOME, right!!!”

Thank you for those kind words. It’s an honor to have another Uncle Frank Fanatic in the family.
