FAQs

What’s the difference between used and CPO?

Think of our Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) inventory as top-tier like-new models. These vehicles are a cut above the regular pre-owned models since they undergo a rigorous multipoint inspection and must abide by the age and mileage restrictions. Once they’re crowned as a CPO vehicle, you’ll get to enjoy special warranties that other pre-owned models simply can’t promise.

What is good mileage on a used car?

This answer may vary, simply because good mileage differs between makes and models. However, many new models can last an exorbitant amount of time due to the ever-evolving powertrain technology that improves year after year. In general, modern cars can last up to around 200,000 miles — maybe even 300,000 miles. Again, make sure to do your research into the particular model you’re interested in and what its average longevity is.

How do I know that I’m getting a good deal?

If you’re shopping at Griffin Ford Lincoln, you’ll gain access to the best possible pricing on our pre-owned models. We highly recommend also doing your own research on the fluctuating car market. Utilize trustworthy third-party sources such as Kelley Blue Book® or Edmunds to get accurate price estimates for the model you’re eyeing. Keep in mind that these values can change every month, so if you find a great price, you’ll want to grab it while it’s available. If you’re interested in making a trade with us, utilize our online appraisal tool before you pick your next ride from our pre-owned inventory.

Why should I buy from a dealership?

We could write a whole book about the benefits of buying from a dealership like ours. However, to sum it up, we are committed to disclose clear pricing and be 100 percent transparent about the condition of the like-new vehicle. Not only that, but we also offer special pre-owned car specials and special financing. If your ride ever needs some TLC, make our service department your go-to and you may always see a familiar face. A private party simply can’t promise any of these benefits and securities. Don’t roll the dice — visit Griffin Ford Lincoln for all of your automotive needs.
