Should You Replace or Repair Your Current Vehicle?
Repairing or Replacing Your Current Vehicle
Are you dealing with a vehicle that is starting to spend more time at the repair shop than usual? You might be considering looking at purchasing a new vehicle to alleviate the situation. Before you do, Thelen Subaru in Bay City, MI, would like to offer some tips on whether you should repair or replace your current vehicle. There are many factors that can lead to either option being the better choice, and we want you to be confident in the decision you make. Whether you need a reliable repair on your existing vehicle or just want to have a dependable new Subaru to call your own, choose Thelen Subaru for your mid-Michigan vehicle needs.
Repairing vs. Replacing Your Current Vehicle in Mid-Michigan
Reasons to Repair – If you are just starting to experience a serious repair (i.e. your vehicle is having its first significant issue), then it is likely still worth it to go through with the repair. This is especially true if your current vehicle is newer. Additionally, you may not have the current budget to go and purchase a new vehicle. If this is the case, then repairing is still the better way to go. Even if you are looking at eventually trading in your vehicle, having the repair done by the appropriate service staff will help improve the value.
Reasons to Replace – One of the obvious reasons to replace your vehicle is if the cost of the repair is beyond its current value and won’t bring the value back up to pre-repair value. You may also have already been looking into purchasing a new Subaru and the most recent repair your vehicle has to undergo may push you to go with the replacement option. Another reason to consider replacing your vehicle is if you are routinely finding yourself at the repair shop, even for repeated minor issues. This continual cycle can be quite costly and can be alleviated with a new or new-to-you vehicle from Thelen Subaru.

Ask Yourself Questions to Find the Right Vehicle For Your Needs
Shopping for a new or new-to-you vehicle is an experience that you want to get right the first time. Finding that perfect car or SUV that meets your needs and preferences is something that makes the whole process worth it in the end. If you want an easier time navigating the researching period of the shopping process, Thelen Subaru in Bay City, MI, wants to help by offering suggestions. Among them are questions that you should ask yourself throughout the evaluation process to make sure that you are looking at the right Subaru when it comes time to visit our mid-Michigan dealership to start the purchasing process.
Five Questions to Ask While Vehicle Shopping
Is This the Right Time to Buy a Vehicle? – Why are you purchasing the vehicle? Is it because you need a vehicle upgrade due to a growing family or because your current vehicle is becoming unreliable? Can you confidently incorporate a monthly new or pre-owned vehicle payment into your current financial situation? Being able to answer yes or a positive response to these means you can move to the next step of the evaluation process.
What is My Budget? – How much can you afford to put into a new or new-to-you vehicle? This can help you dictate not only which of the two options is better suited for you but also offer insight into other factors such as body style and features.
New or Pre-Owned Subaru? – After determining the budget you have set for yourself, visit the new and pre-owned inventory pages on Thelen Subaru’s website to see the excellent selection of vehicles available at our Mid-Michigan dealership. You can use our convenient payment calculator to see the estimated monthly payment you could be looking at based on the vehicle you are looking to buy. We offer all the relevant information you need through a vehicle’s inventory page to help you make confident purchasing decisions before you stop in.
Body Style? – Do you want a sleek and sporty vehicle like a Subaru Impreza or a spacious SUV such as the Subaru Ascent? Each offers its own advantages when it comes to catering to specific family needs. By knowing what you need from your vehicle, you can choose the Subaru that is perfect.
What Features Do You Want? – Finally, what features are must-haves in your next vehicle? Are you more of a fan of basic amenities for a pure driving experience, or do you like having all the latest technology in your vehicle? What safety features do you feel you need to have when it comes to confidently and safely driving with your friends and family? If you need any assistance with what features come on a specific Subaru model, our sales team will be happy to help.
