How to Test-Drive a Used Truck for Sale

When you’re looking for a used truck for sale, you have to be smart. While it’s important to do your research and figure out which features amenities you need, you can’t forget about the test drive.

Getting In

The first thing to focus on when trying out a truck is the actual process of entering your vehicle. Some trucks are simply enormous, and if just getting into the cabin is difficult or cumbersome, right away you may realize that this isn’t the right model for you.

Once Inside

When you do eventually get inside, check out the layout.

• Do you have good visibility?
• Is the stereo easy to use?
• Is the seating comfortable?
• Will there be enough room for all your passengers and supplies?
• Will you be able to sync up your smartphone to the infotainment system?
• Where are the USB ports located?

On the Road

Now comes the fun part. Take a drive to gauge your vehicle’s acceleration and power. See how it feels around sharp turns and curves. Notice the feel of the brakes and if they offer strong stopping power. You should also see what it’s like to operate the infotainment system and climate controls while driving.
