What is More Important When Buying a Used Vehicle: Mileage or Age? 

Mileage

Many motorists will advise you to look for a pre-owned vehicle that has low mileage. This is because a previously owned car with low mileage typically has more life left than a comparable vehicle with more miles on its odometer.

However, this is not always the case. If an automobile has unusually low miles, you may end up bringing it to one of our Hall auto service centers more often than you should have to. Cars are meant to be driven regularly. When they're not driven often enough, they may experience problems like dried-out and leaking seals, dead batteries, and transmission issues. 

Age

A car's age is also an important consideration, but not for the reasons you might think. New vehicles are made to last longer than their forebears. They're also manufactured with a growing number of the latest features. An automobile's age matters when it comes to features because older vehicles may not have state-of-the-art amenities, such as a blind-spot monitor or an infotainment system.

Maintenance

As critical as a car's age and mileage are, there is something even more fundamental that you should prioritize, and it's the way the automobile was maintained. We have an inventory of CARFAX® one-owner cars, and each one comes with a detailed vehicle history report that reveals how their previous owners took care of them. If an automobile was well cared for, the vehicle's age and accrued mileage aren't as significant as they might be otherwise.
