If you’re on the search for used trucks for sale, Scott Chevrolet is the dealership for you. We believe every driver deserves a safe and reliable vehicle for work, adventure, or family. Explore the top reasons to buy a pre-owned truck right here at our dealership today.

Lower Cost

Pre-owned trucks are less expensive than brand-new models, which means there will be more trucks available within your budget, so you can pick out a vehicle that really meets the needs of the road ahead. It also means you won’t have to take as long to save up your down payment, and your monthly payments and in-between costs like sales tax and insurance will be smaller. Because you’ll be able to pay your vehicle off more quickly, you’ll also have smaller interest costs.

You’ll Have a Lower Rate of Depreciation

Depreciation is the rate at which a vehicle loses its value, which can be quite significant in brand-new trucks. Pre-owned trucks have already experienced the bulk of their depreciation, so your vehicle will retain more of its value if you decide to sell or trade-in down the line.

You’ll Have Access to Reviews

Every truck owner is different, and you want to make sure you’re picking out the right truck for the road ahead. With pre-owned models that have been out for a few years, you can read the reviews and ratings from real drivers that will help you find a model with towing, terrain management, and safety features you can trust.

In the Chevrolet Trailblazer, you’ll find 26 city and 29 highway miles per gallon for a combined 27 miles per gallon. In the Chevrolet Trax, you’ll find 28 city and 32 highway miles per gallon for a combined 30 miles per gallon.*

You already know that the right Chevrolet service will keep your commuter vehicle, family SUV, or weekend performance car in the best possible condition for as long as possible. But what about a collector car you don’t drive very much or a daily driver that’s not so daily anymore because your work-from-home “commute” takes you from the bedroom to your dining room table and back? Scott Chevrolet is here to share tips for servicing and caring for a show vehicle or other model that doesn’t spend much time on the road. 

Check the Battery

Vehicles rely on a battery system to run essential accessories like lights and safety systems. The alternator charges the battery while the vehicle runs, which is how you never run out of power. With rarely driven cars, however, the battery still experiences self-discharge even when the vehicle is off, but the alternator doesn’t have the chance to recharge that lost power. You’ll want to run your car for at least a few minutes weekly to prevent the battery from losing capacity.

Fill the Fluids

When a vehicle isn’t driven regularly, it doesn’t go through essential fluids as quickly, like oil or power steering fluid. However, you still want to check and fill these fluids regularly. Dry systems and hoses can crack or become damaged, and low fluids can cause significant problems when driving your vehicle.

Maintain the Tires

Low tire pressure is one of the most common issues with rarely driven vehicles. The environmental conditions can affect pressure levels and may even lead to tire damage over time. Check the pressure regularly to know your vehicle is safe to drive when needed.

Every season poses driving challenges, but winter’s ice, snow, and unpredictable weather may be the most challenging. While maintenance matters, one of the most essential items for your car, truck, or SUV might be tires from our Chevrolet parts department. If you’ve wondered whether you need snow tires or all-weather tires are good enough, Scott Chevrolet answers some common questions. 

When Should I Switch to Snow Tires?

If you’re doing a lot of winter driving in cold, snowy, and icy conditions, you may switch to snow tires. Snow tires have wider grooves and a unique chemical make-up, which helps to provide the flexibility, pressure stability, and extra traction you need to stay in control on winter roads and to get rid of ice and water build-up more easily.

When Should I Keep All-Season Tires?

It’s not unusual for drivers to hold onto their all-season tires, even in winter. After all, swapping out your tires can be costly and time-consuming, and you may find yourself driving in environments where they’re not necessary or even a hindrance.

It’s perfectly acceptable to hold onto your all-season tires through the winter, but there are a few things you’ll want to keep in mind. Ensure you get them inspected at the start of the winter season to know there is enough tread for safe, controlled winter driving. You also want to check the balance and pressure and rotate them to ensure even wear. Through the winter, check the pressure regularly; temperature fluctuations cause pressure variations, so you may need to make minor adjustments occasionally.

The very best way to keep your vehicle safe in the winter months is with cold-weather Chevy service like the kind available here at Scott Chevrolet. We offer the service that makes the difference through the winter, and we’re sharing a closer look at the service tasks you’ll want to schedule for your Chevrolet vehicle this season. 

Inspect the Windshield and Headlights

Visibility is essential for safe driving, especially in the winter. This is the season when it gets dark early and stays dark late, and you have a higher risk of encountering precipitation. By getting your wipers and headlights inspected at the start of the winter months, you can help ensure maximum visibility, which means even more safety when you’re out on the road.

Pack an Emergency Kit

The chance of breakdowns or complications on the open road is higher in the winter, which is why it can be helpful to pack an emergency kit. With a shovel and kitty litter, you’ll be able to get your vehicle out of slippery driving conditions. You’ll also want to add flares, flashlights, blankets, food, and water for those moments when it helps to be prepared.

Service Your Tires

If you’re doing a lot of winter driving, it may be a good idea to switch over to winter tires, which can protect against slipping and pressure loss. You still want to schedule service if you’re keeping your all-season tires. Make sure the tread is deep enough for control on slippery roads and that your tires are properly inflated.

Winterize Your Chevy Vehicle in Allentown, PA

When the time comes for Chevrolet service, it’s time to visit Scott Chevrolet. We’ll help you protect your vehicle on every winter drive with the car care and service support that keeps you safer this season and all year long.
