Welcome to Driven, your trusted family-owned used car dealership located right here in Boise, Idaho! We understand that buying a used car can be a daunting process, and that's why we've decided to kick off our weekly blog—to guide you through the ins and outs of the used car buying process and to keep you updated on the latest market trends and dealership news.


Why Buy Used in Boise?

The used car market in Boise is thriving, with a plethora of options available to suit every budget and preference. Opting for a pre-owned vehicle not only saves you money but also provides you with the opportunity to drive a car that may have been out of your price range if purchased new. At Driven, we pride ourselves on our transparent and customer-centric approach, ensuring that every vehicle on our lot meets our high standards of quality and reliability.


Current Market Trends

In today’s market, SUVs and trucks continue to dominate in Boise, thanks to their versatility and capability to handle various terrain and weather conditions. However, we've also seen a growing interest in fuel-efficient and hybrid vehicles as gas prices fluctuate and environmental awareness increases.

Regardless of the type of vehicle you're in the market for, it's essential to stay informed and be proactive in your search. Here are some tips to help you navigate the Boise used car market:

  1. Research: Before stepping onto any dealership lot, take the time to research the types of vehicles that interest you. Look into their reliability, average market price, and cost of ownership.
  2. Vehicle History Report: Always request a vehicle history report when considering a used car. This report provides invaluable information on the car's past, including any accidents, title information, and maintenance history.
  3. Pre-Purchase Inspection: Consider having the vehicle inspected by a trusted mechanic before making a purchase. This can help uncover any potential issues and give you peace of mind.
  4. Negotiate: Don't be afraid to negotiate the price. Remember, the sticker price isn't always the final price, and there is usually some room for negotiation.
  5. Test Drive: Always take the car for a test drive to get a feel for how it handles and to listen for any unusual noises.
